TL;DR · GenAI Physical Synthesis Engineer

Role Posting Log in to save

As a GenAI Physical Synthesis Engineer within the Silicon Technologies group, you will develop intelligent automation solutions to transform RTL-to-GDS implementation flows. You will be responsible for creating AI-powered agents using Model Context Protocol and other agentic frameworks to autonomously optimize physical synthesis processes, predict design challenges, and provide automated debugging recommendations. Your daily work involves building CAD tools that integrate with existing EDA tools like Fusion Compiler and Genus to enhance synthesis, LEC, and DFT implementation workflows. You will utilize technologies including Python, TCL, Perl, PyTorch, TensorFlow, Transformers, and RAG techniques to solve complex physical synthesis challenges in processor and SoC development. The role focuses on merging artificial intelligence with chip design to create autonomous systems that streamline the technical complexities of hardware manufacturing and power optimization.
