TL;DR · ASIC STA Engineer

As an ASIC Design Engineer on the STA team at Cisco, you will contribute to the development of extraction and static timing analysis (STA) flow, focusing on convergence strategies and correlation between physical design rules, Spice simulations, and STA processes. Your responsibilities include creating methodologies, guidelines, and checklists to enhance efficiency in STA work, resolving complex design and flow issues, and driving execution to ensure accuracy and progress. The role requires a strong background in electrical or computer engineering with experience in Verilog/SystemVerilog programming, ideally complemented by prior STA experience and excellent communication skills. This position is integral to the development of cutting-edge semiconductor solutions for large-scale enterprise applications.

What you'll do

  • Develop methodologies and guidelines for static timing analysis (STA) flow.
  • Resolve complex design and flow issues in STA processes.
  • Ensure accuracy and progress in STA execution through rigorous testing.
  • Enhance correlation between physical implementation, Spice simulation, and STA.
  • Streamline the extraction process to improve overall efficiency.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering with 5+ years of ASIC design experience.
  • Master's degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering with 3+ years of relevant experience.
  • PhD in Electrical or Computer Engineering with any level of professional experience.
  • Experience with Verilog/SystemVerilog programming.
  • Development of methodologies, guidelines, and checklists for STA work.
