Senior Power Integrity Methodology CAD Engineer

Job Title

Senior Power Integrity Methodology CAD Engineer

Role Summary

Design and deliver power-integrity (EMIR) methodology, flows, and CAD tool integrations for rail analysis and signoff across GPU/AI chip projects. The role sits on the physical design/methodology team and focuses on analysis workflows, automation, and convergence of signoff-quality IR analysis.

Work involves creating and maintaining tool flows, collaborating with hardware and design teams, and improving methodology for early-cycle optimization.

Experience Level

Senior — requires substantial hands-on methodology development experience; posting specifies a minimum of 5+ years in EMIR flow methodology development and support.

Responsibilities

The primary responsibilities include developing methodology, implementing flows, and supporting EMIR signoff across projects.

• Develop physical-design methodologies and tool flows for rail analysis and IR signoff.
• Design and implement workflows for power and noise analysis across multiple projects.
• Create solutions and tooling for pioneering IR analysis and signoff requirements.
• Support hierarchical design and hierarchical signoff approaches and enable shift-left EMIR optimization.
• Collaborate with hardware, design, and verification teams to achieve EMIR signoff.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience for successful performance in the role.

• Minimum 5+ years of experience in EMIR flow methodology development and support.
• Strong understanding of EMIR analysis and signoff processes and criteria.
• Experience with hierarchical design approaches and hierarchical signoff.
• Experience with shift-left methodologies to drive EMIR optimization earlier in the build cycle.
• Proficiency in programming and scripting (TCL, Perl, Python, C++).
• Strong interpersonal, communication, and teamwork skills for cross-functional collaboration.

Nice-to-have:

• Experience building custom workflows and tool integrations from scratch.
• Experience applying AI tools to automate analysis or improve tool/flow features.
• Proven adaptability and creative problem-solving in fast-paced environments.

Education Requirements

Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
