TL;DR · ASIC Implementation Engineer STA

JOB TITLE: ASIC Implementation Engineer STA The ASIC Implementation Engineer STA is responsible for ensuring that the ASIC meets performance targets and timing requirements across all operating conditions. This role involves owning full-chip timing sign-off, performing quality checks across various process, voltage, and temperature corners, and authoring SDC constraints for functional and test modes. The engineer will analyze foundry guidelines, manage multi-mode multi-corner analysis, and implement ECOs to fix setup, hold, and transition violations. Key technical requirements include expertise in Cadence or Synopsys tools, On-Chip Variation, Signal Integrity, and IR-drop aware STA. The position requires high proficiency in Tcl, Python, Perl, and Shell scripting to automate analysis flows. The work involves balancing power, performance, and area tradeoffs while collaborating with RTL, Physical Design, and DFT teams.

What you'll do

  • Perform full-chip timing sign-off and quality checks across all process, voltage, and temperature corners.
  • Author, validate, and maintain SDC constraints for functional and test modes.
  • Incorporate foundry guidelines, margins, and derates into timing analysis flows and methodologies.
  • Manage and analyze hundreds of timing scenarios for Multi-Mode Multi-Corner (MMMC) analysis.
  • Automate, generate, and implement ECOs to resolve setup, hold, and transition violations.
  • Develop Tcl, Python, and Perl scripts to automate analysis flows and perform data mining.
  • Analyze tradeoffs between power, performance, and area to drive chip implementation flows.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
  • Minimum of 12 years of hands-on experience in ASIC STA and timing constraints development.
  • Experience in timing closure using Cadence or Synopsys tools.
  • Experience managing on-chip variation derates and optimizing multi-mode multi-corner constraints.
  • Proficiency in scripting languages including Tcl, Python, Perl, or Shell.
  • Expert proficiency in industry-standard sign-off tools.
  • Strong problem-solving skills with attention to every technical aspect.
  • Clear and precise communication skills and ability to work as a team player.
