ArmJob Title
Engineer
Role Summary
The implementation team in Arm's Solution Engineering delivers synthesis, physical design and implementation for Arm cores, systems and SoCs. The role focuses on meeting product specifications on advanced process nodes and improving implementation methodologies and toolflows.
Works with internal RTL and physical IP teams, customers and EDA vendors to analyze silicon results and drive optimizations.
Experience Level
Entry-level / Early Career - requires at least 2 years of relevant ASIC/SoC implementation experience.
Responsibilities
Primary duties include implementation, analysis and methodology development for Arm IP and SoCs.
- Synthesis, physical design and implementation of Arm cores, systems and SoCs.
- Analyze timing, area and power to improve IP quality.
- Develop and deploy implementation methodologies and automation to improve efficiency and results.
- Support implementation analysis and data-mining methodologies.
- Collaborate with RTL and physical IP teams to drive analysis and optimization.
Requirements
Must-have skills and experience:
- At least 2 years experience in ASIC SoC implementation flow from RTL to GDS.
- Experience with timing constraints development, synthesis, and timing closure.
- Experience with multi-million gate tape-outs on recent technology nodes.
- Ability to prepare timing constraints for build and signoff.
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently and in teams.
Nice-to-have:
- Scripting and programming (Tcl, Shell, Perl, Python).
- Low-power design techniques (power gating, voltage/frequency scaling).
- Verilog RTL design experience.
- Understanding of DFT and its implications on physical design.
Education Requirements
Bachelor's or Master's degree (or equivalent) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science or other relevant technical field.
