Understand design data flow and complexity, translating to physical design constraints and strategy for convergence with best PPA metrices.
Strategize floor-planning options and experimentation, fine tune Place & Route for design specific needs and close timing requirement within given power envelope.
Implement Low Power physical design flows and methodologies such as Power-Gating, Clock-Gating and MBR flows.
Perform and debug LEC in ensuring design equivalence against synthesized gate-level netlist.
Guiding/leading junior members of the team with effective coaching approach.
Enhance tools, flows and methodologies to meet design TAT
Communicate regularly with the project teams world-wide to resolve issues and to ensure meeting targeted goals and schedule
Requirements/Qualifications:
Requirements
This position requires at least BSEE with 6-10 years of ASIC development experience in a fast paced environment. You are required to have expertise in a wide range of areas in design, tools and flows:
