ASIC Design Hardware Engineer - SDC/STA (Hybrid)
Location : San Jose, California, United States of America
Category : Product and Engineering
Term: 1+ Years
You are a diligent Design / SDC Engineer with strong analytical skills and a deep understanding of timing constraints, including clock groups, exceptions, and clock exclusivity. Proficient in industry-standard SDC/STA tools and scripting for automation, you
excel at identifying and resolving timing issues across all design levels. You will develop timing constrains at both block level and full-chip and validate them using industry standard timing constraints verification tools such as TCM, Time vision. You will collaborate with
Front-end and Back-end teams to understand chip architecture and guide them in refining design and timing constraints for seamless physical design closure. As part of this team, you ll contribute to developing next-generation networking chips.
Being a member of design team who develops block level and full-chip SDCs and works with physical design and DFT teams to close full-chip timing in multiple timing modes.
You will work design and architecture teams in understanding clocking structure, develop timing constraints and validate them though constraints verification tool before releasing them for physical design.
Option to also do block level RTL design or block or top-level IP integration.
Helping develop efficient methodology to promote block level SDCs to full-chip, and to push down full-chip SDCs to block level.
Helping develop and apply methodology to ensure correctness and quality of SDCs as early as possible in design cycle.
Reviewing block level SDCs and clocking diagrams and collaborate with RTL design owners on SDC development.
Contribute to full-chip clocking design including diagrams and related documentation.
Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor s Degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering with 6+ years of ASIC or related experience or Master s Degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering with 3+ years of ASIC or related experience.
Experience with synthesis tools (eg. Synopsys DC/DCG/FC), STA tools such as Primetime and must have knowledge of HDL such as Verilog/SystemVerilog programming, and scripting languages such as Shell, Perl, and must have strong experience scripting with TCL.
Experience with digital design concepts (eg. clocking, timing exceptions and async boundaries).
Experience with block/full chip SDC development in functional and test modes.
Experience with microarchitecture and RTL implementation.
Preferred Qualifications
Effective documentation, problem-solving, and technical communication skills.
Experience working cross-functionally and collaborating with various technical teams.
You are a problem solver who loves to tackle new challenges and a self-starter who is highly motivated and thrives on innovative technology.
You are a strong communicator in a team setting, enjoy working in a dynamic team environment, and are an out-of-the-box thinker.
Thanks & Regards,
Pankaj Singh - Team Lead
