Physical Design Engineer & DV Engineers
Why This Role Stands Out
This hybrid role offers an excellent opportunity to refine your skills in advanced SoC physical design and implementation using Synopsys Fusion Compiler, contributing to cutting-edge chip development. You'll thrive if you possess strong PnR experience, a solid understanding of STA and low-power design, and enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams to achieve ambitious PPA targets. This is a fantastic chance to grow your career in a dynamic engineering environment.
