Job Description

What We’re Looking For:

We’re looking for physical design engineers to help manage and execute the physical design process for the various dies that comprise our A-0 and A-1 systems. This will involve deciding what to do in-house and outsource, and then managing the outsourced process and integrating it with the in-house flow and effort.

 

Ideal Candidates:

Ideal candidates will have:

  • Hands-on experience with the physical design process for at least one block in multiple advanced node tapeouts 
  • Ability to understand what PPA limiters are from RTL and coordinate with microarchitects to change the RTL to improve/fix them
  • Experience both with in-house and outsourced physical design flows 

 

Nice to Have: 

  • Experience with physical design process for multi-die/multi-chiplet/MCM designs 
  • Experience with physical design process for reticle-max or near reticle max designs
  • Experience with very high power density chips 
  • Experience with the physical design process for AI chips
  • Experience with the physical design process of analog and mixed signal blocks and macros
