Senior/Lead/Staff Engineer – Physical Verification

Work on physical verification (DRC/LVS) of state-of-the-art SOCs/digital IPs/blocks at cutting edge FinFET technology nodes for various customers.

This position is for a senior-level physical verification engineer who will work on

• Physical verification of a complex SOC/Cores/Blocks – DRC, LVS, ERC, ESD, DFM, Tapeout
• Work hands-on to solve critical design and execution issues related to physical verification and sign-off
• Own physical verification and sign-off flows, methodologies and execution of SoC/cores

Experience:

• Expertise in physical verification of SoC/Full-chip-level and/or block-level – DRC, Experience and understanding of all phases of the IC design process from RTL->GDS2
• LVS, ERC/PERC, DFM, OPC, Tapeout process
• Preferably worked on 5nm/7nm/12nm/14nm/16nm nodes at the major foundries
• Experience in developing sign-off methodology/flow to and supporting a larger team
• Experience in debugging LVS issues at chip-level with complex analog-mixed signal IPs
• Experience with design using low-power implementation (level-shifters, isolation cells, power domain/islands, substrate isolation etc.)
• Experience in physical verification of I/O Ring, corner cells, seal ring, RDL routing, bumps and other full-chip components
• Good understanding of CMOS/FinFET process and circuit design, base layer related DRCs, ERC rules, latch-up etc.
• Experience with ERC rules, PERC rules, ESD rules has an added advantage
• EDA Tools: Cadence (Pegasus), Mentor (Calibre), Synopsys (ICV)

Qualifications:

• BTech/MTech/PhD with 3-10 years’ experience in physical design/physical verification
• Proven track record with multiple successful final production tape-outs
• Proven ability to independently deliver results in a very fast-moving startup environment, be able to work hands-on as and guide/help peers to deliver their tasks
• Be able to work under limited supervision and take complete accountability.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

What’s in it for you:

• Work on leading edge technologies
• An opportunity for career development and growth
• Competitive compensation
• Exceptional benefits
