TL;DR · GPU Physical Design Engineer

As a GPU Physical Design Engineer within the Silicon Technologies group, you will be responsible for implementing complete chip designs from RTL to tapeout for high-performance, power-efficient GPUs. You will work closely with the front-end team to drive physical aspects early in the design cycle while developing construction and optimization recipes for performance, power, and area. Your daily responsibilities include managing place and route engineers, resolving flow issues, and establishing best known methods to streamline physical design workflows on pioneering designs in latest technology nodes. The role requires proficiency in digital logic design, RTL, CMOS transistor logics, and VLSI concepts. You will utilize scripting languages such as TCL, Python, Perl, or shell scripting while leveraging EDA tools and APIs to manage floorplanning, clock and power distribution, and timing signoff for complex integrated circuits.

What you'll do

  • Implement complete chip design from RTL through tapeout.
  • Drive physical design construction and optimization recipes for performance, power, and area (PPA).
  • Work with the Front-End team to integrate chip architecture into early design cycles.
  • Develop methodologies and "best known methods" to streamline physical design workflows.
  • Manage place and route engineers by setting goals and planning short-term and long-term work.
  • Resolve complex design and flow issues related to physical design and execution.
  • Execute pioneering designs on the latest technology nodes.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering or Computer Science required.
  • Master's degree preferred.
  • Experience or coursework in physical design, synthesis, DFT, or clocking.
  • Experience or coursework with digital logic design, RTL, CMOS transistor logics, or VLSI concepts.
  • Experience with scripting languages such as TCL, Python, Perl, or shell scripting.
  • Ability in all aspects of ASIC implementation including Synthesis, DFT insertion, Floorplanning, Clock and Power distribution, Place and Route, and signoff (preferred).
  • Experience working with EDA tools and exposure to their APIs (preferred).
  • Knowledge of multi-voltage, power gated, and power retention concepts (preferred).
