Job RequirementsWe are looking for a highly experienced and technically strong Senior Lead Physical Design Engineer with 12+ years of hands-on expertise on complex block or subsystem-level physical design on complete RTL to GDSII activities and must be passionate about driving power and area efficiency, methodology innovation, and signoff convergence.Key Responsibilities:
  • Drive RTL-to-GDSII activities including synthesis, floor planning, power planning, , placement, CTS, routing, and signoff tasks.
  • Experience on multi-voltage and multi-power domain designs using UPF and low power verification (VCLP/CLP)
  • Perform dynamic and leakage power analysis (using PTPX) and optimization across design hierarchies.
  • Handle subsystem-level integration, including top-level timing and physical convergence.
  • Run and debug signoff timing, EM/IR drop (RedHawk/Voltus), Noise, and Formal Equivalence Checks (Formality/Conformal), Power analysis (PTPX) using industry standard tools.
  • Analyze results and provide feedback to RTL/DFT teams for architectural and logic-level improvements.
  • Tune EDA flow knobs and refine methodology to meet aggressive PPA (Power, Performance, Area) goals.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including RTL, DFT, PD Methodology, and STA.
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to flow development and automation using Python/TCL/Perl.
Required Skills:
  • Proven experience in block/SS/full-chip level RTL to GDSII implementation.
  • Deep knowledge of low power design techniques, UPF 2.x, power domain crossings, level shifters, and isolation cells.
  • Signoff expertise in timing convergence, power (ptpx), and EM/IR analysis (RedHawk/Voltus)
  • Strong debugging and convergence skills in synthesis, placement, and routing for better QoR.
  • Experience with Fusion Compiler and/or ICC2, Innovus, and PrimeTime, PTPX, Redhawk, Conformal, CLP/VCLP
  • Familiarity with Python, Perl, or Tcl scripting for automation.
  • Prior experience in methodology tweaking, physical-aware synthesis, and ECOs.
