Senior Staff Engineer, Digital IC Design
Role Summary
ASIC engineer on the Central Engineering AMS‑IP team responsible for post‑RTL digital implementation for SerDes PHY and other analog/mixed‑signal IP. Primary mission: drive synthesis, timing closure, DFT and ECOs to deliver block and chip‑level solutions.
Works with analog and digital design teams to integrate SerDes IP across product lines and supports pre‑ and post‑silicon activities.
Experience Level
Senior — 6+ years of relevant post‑RTL/ASIC design experience.
Responsibilities
Key responsibilities include implementation, verification support, and methodology improvements.
- Perform synthesis, timing closure, and physical design for blocks and top‑level integration.
- Generate DFT and support DFT verification and insertion.
- Execute ECOs and support pre‑ and post‑silicon fixes.
- Collaborate with analog and digital teams to deliver SerDes PHY IP (10Gbps–224Gbps).
- Improve design methodology and post‑RTL flow.
- Perform custom placement and routing for mixed‑signal designs as required.
Requirements
Must‑have technical skills and practical experience.
- Proven post‑RTL experience including synthesis, timing analysis, and physical design.
- Experience with Synopsys or Cadence synthesis/implementation tools.
- DFT generation and verification experience.
- Static timing analysis using PrimeTime.
- Physical design experience for 28nm and beyond.
- Strong Perl and Tcl scripting skills.
- Good communication and ability to work in a team.
Nice‑to‑have:
- Low‑power design techniques.
- Circuit‑level or custom design experience.
- Floorplanning, clock‑tree synthesis, and power planning/analysis.
- Signal integrity and physical verification experience.
Education Requirements
Master's degree and/or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field (as stated in the posting).
