STA Timing Engineer-Onsite - Locals to MA

Short Description:-

We are looking for experienced, strong STA timing contractors( static timing analysis) to support a critical program. Knowledge of PrimeClosure would be good but not required" 

• Perform static timing analysis (STA) for the PCIe subsystem within the Sparta architecture.
• Develop, validate, and maintain PCIe-specific timing constraints (SDC) and exceptions.
• Run full chip and block level STA for PCIe paths across PVT corners and operating modes.
• Identify timing violations and drive ECO recommendations to close setup/hold, DRV, and noise issues.
• Collaborate with RTL, synthesis, PnR, and verification teams to ensure end to end PCIe timing signoff.
• Analyze clocking, resets, CDC paths, and PHY interface timing for PCIe.
• Generate timing reports and signoff documentation for program milestones.
• Support timing debug during subsystem integration and final tape out.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or related field.
• 5+ years of experience in static timing analysis for complex SoC designs
• Expertise with STA tools (PrimeTime or equivalent).
• Strong understanding of PCIe architecture, PHY interfaces, and timing requirements.
• Hands on experience developing and debugging SDC constraints and timing exceptions.
• Solid knowledge of clocks, resets, CDC, and hierarchical timing closure.
• Familiarity with synthesis, PnR flows, and ECO methodologies.
• Ability to interpret timing reports and drive closure across setup, hold, and DRV issues.
• Strong cross functional communication skills to work with RTL, physical design, and DFT teams.
