ASIC Design Engineer

Job Description:The ASIC Design Engineer will need to interact internally with the Design Architect and externally with customers on aspects including but not limited to physical synthesis, influencing RTL content and coding styles that will lend itself to seamless closure in the physical design backend flows. The individual will also be responsible for defining/ co-defining timing constraints with the customer and interface with the physical design team to aid in overall closure and manufacture of the ASIC with emphasis on low power, optimized area, max. performance and high overall manufacturing yield.The candidate should have a strong understanding of VLSI and ASIC physical design.Minimum Qualifications:20+ years of experience with a deep understanding of ASIC architecture, design, development, and verification.Significant experience with synthesis and physical synthesis tools (Synopsys and Cadence tool suites preferred).Deep understanding of PLLs and clock networks.Significant experience using a static timing analysis tool, preferably Synopsys PrimeTime and/or Cadence Tempus.Ability to create and debug timing constraints.Ability to understand and debug warning and error messages from the timing tool.Ability to generate and understand timing reports.Deep understanding of STA concepts.Solid understanding of RC networks and how they affect the timing/propagation of signals.Understanding of Signal Integrity, Crosstalk Delay, and Glitch/Noise Analysis.Understanding of setup analysis, hold analysis, and other timing checks.Ability to understand and create timing diagrams.Deep understanding of more advanced STA concepts such as POCV/SOCV/LVF modeling of variation, MIS - multi input switching, CCS/ECSM/NLDM - liberty timing models, PBA - path based analysis, LOCV/SOCV - location aware timing derates.Experience using SPICE analysis.Coding experience: TCL is required. Experience with at least one or two other coding languages is preferred.Strong communication and organizational skills.Strong ability to debug problems and create solutions.Strong engineering capabilities and good engineering judgment.Job Complexity:Works on significant and unique development and support issues where analysis of situations or data requires an evaluation of intangibles along with an in-depth understanding of the underlying design/constraints and implementation techniques used. Exercises independent judgment in methods, techniques, and evaluation criteria for obtaining results. Creates formal networks involving coordination among groups and works well with individuals and teams spread across geographical time-zones.Supervision:Acts independently to determine methods and procedures on new or special assignments. Will supervise the activities of others. Works in close collaboration with his/her supervisor and can effectively context-switch and multi-task based on business need.Education and Experience required:MS degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering and 20+ years related experience.Programming Languages:
