My Client
My client is a global technology company focused on advanced semiconductor and high-performance computing systems. The engineering team is dedicated to building next-generation ASIC solutions across advanced process nodes, supporting large-scale compute-intensive applications. The team operates in a highly technical and fast-paced environment, with strong emphasis on physical implementation, performance optimization, and full-chip delivery. They are currently expanding their physical design team to support growing project demands across advanced nodes.
Job Responsibilities
- Perform end-to-end physical design implementation from netlist to GDSII for advanced ASIC projects.
- Work on key stages including floorplanning, power planning, placement, clock tree synthesis (CTS), routing, and optimization.
- Drive timing closure across MMMC scenarios, including setup/hold fixing, clock optimization, and ECO implementation.
- Conduct physical verification and signoff tasks (DRC, LVS, IR drop, EM analysis) to ensure tape-out readiness.
- Optimize power, performance, and area (PPA) through iterative design improvements.
- Collaborate closely with front-end design, DFT, and signoff teams to resolve integration and late-stage issues.
- Contribute to design methodology improvements and automation through scripting and tooling enhancements.
Job Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree or above in Microelectronics, Electronic Engineering, or related fields.
- Understanding of physical design flow and IC development process.
- Familiarity with PnR tools such as ICC2, Fusion Compiler, or Innovus.
- Knowledge of timing analysis, power optimization, and physical verification concepts.
- Basic scripting skills (TCL / Python / Shell) for automation is a plus.
- Strong learning ability and willingness to work in advanced technology environments.
What They Offer
- Opportunity to work on cutting-edge semiconductor projects at advanced technology nodes.
- Exposure to full-chip design flow and large-scale ASIC development.
- Competitive compensation and long-term growth opportunities.
