As a CPU Server Physical Design Timing Engineer on the CPU Engineering team, you will define, develop, and drive timing closure for Oryon CPU Cores. You will collaborate with microarchitecture and RTL design teams to establish timing constraints and implement designs that meet aggressive power, area, and performance goals. Your daily responsibilities include performing STA setup, convergence, and signoff for multi-mode, multi-voltage domain designs while conducting analysis across various PVT conditions. You will also develop automation scripts to enhance timing infrastructure and methodology. The role requires proficiency in industry tools such as PrimeTime, Tempus, ICC2, and Innovus, along with expert scripting skills in TCL, Perl, and Python. This position focuses on solving complex timing miscorrelations and optimizing PPA goals for high-performance CPU designs across advanced N2/N3 technology nodes.
