Country: USA
Alternate Location: US – California, Northern – Bay Area
Percent of Travel Required: 0%
Job Function: Engineering
Discipline: ENG-Hardware-IC Design
Responsibilities: You will be a key member of a team, participating in the design of a future generation Vulcan ARMv8 microprocessor. We are looking for a talented individual to drive implementation of standard cell-based design (CBD) blocks from synthesis through post-layout verification and tapeout. You will develop the custom constraints for driving synthesis and Place and Route (PnR) tools to implement and optimize the design. You will work closely with the micro-architecture, RTL, and custom circuit teams to converge the design to project targets. In addition to the PnR activities, this position requires a solid undertanding of the EDA tools, the ability to script and implement Physical Design flows.
Responsibilities for this position will include but not be limited to:
-Critical path analysis and identification of logic structures requiring custom design and layout for timing optimization.
-Block floorplanning, Clock tree synthesis.
-RTL to gate level netlist generation through synthesis, placement, Clock tree synthesis (CTS) and route flows.
-Static timing analysis and convergence flows.
Validation of physical design including timing, electrical rules, DRC/LVS, Noise, electromigration checks
Formal equivalence verification.
-Scripting to automate tasks and improve debug efficiency.
-Scripting to implement design flows that use industry standard EDA tools.
