Senior IC Design Engineer - Digital Implementation

Overview

The Senior Digital Implementation Engineer is responsible for the end-to-end digital implementation of complex ASIC designs, including synthesis, place and route, and timing closure. This role requires strong technical skills and experience in digital design methodologies, along with a proven ability to work in a collaborative environment. The ideal candidate will lead implementation projects, mentor junior engineers, and drive continuous improvements in digital design flows and methodologies.

Responsibilities

• Digital Design Implementation : Lead the synthesis, place and route, and optimization of complex digital designs, ensuring high performance, area efficiency, and low power consumption.
• Timing Closure : Perform static timing analysis and drive timing closure efforts for digital designs, identifying and resolving timing issues across multiple corners.
• Collaboration : Work closely with RTL designers, verification engineers, and physical design teams to ensure smooth integration and compliance with design specifications.
• Methodology Development : Develop and improve digital implementation methodologies and flows, including best practices for synthesis, place and route, and DFT.
• Tool Utilization : Utilize EDA tools (e.g., Synopsys Design Compiler, Cadence Innovus, or Mentor Graphics) effectively for implementation tasks and drive automation efforts for increased efficiency.
• Debugging and Troubleshooting : Identify and resolve implementation issues, including signal integrity, DRC / LVS errors, and timing violations, through thorough debugging and analysis.
• Documentation : Maintain comprehensive documentation of design processes, methodologies, and project deliverables, ensuring traceability and knowledge sharing.
• Mentorship : Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers, fostering their growth in digital design implementation and best practices.
