TL;DR · Memory System Designer and Place and Route Engineer

The Memory System Designer and Place and Route Engineer will join the Central Engineering Group as part of the memory subsystem design team. This role focuses on the development of large memory blocks and subsystems. Key responsibilities include architecting and designing memory subsystems, implementing RTL of subsystem designs, and performing physical design tasks such as place and route. The engineer must achieve design closure for timing, DRC, LVS, and EM/IR while performing gate netlist synthesis. Required technical skills include writing and debugging Verilog RTL code, running STA and synthesis tools, and using Python for automation scripts. Candidates must also be capable of running logical equivalency checkers and possess a good understanding of memory behavior to solve complex hardware design problems.

What you'll do

  • Architect and design complex memory subsystems and large memory blocks.
  • Implement RTL for subsystem designs using Verilog.
  • Perform physical design tasks including placement and routing.
  • Achieve design closure for timing, DRC, LVS, and EM/IR requirements.
  • Execute gate netlist synthesis and run synthesis tools.
  • Run and debug logical equivalency checkers.
  • Write automation scripts and tools using Python.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum of 8 years of relevant experience.
  • Bachelor in Electrical Engineering.
  • Strong design skills including the ability to write and debug Verilog RTL code.
  • Place and route expertise.
  • Proficiency in running STA, DRC, EM/IR tools, and attaining design closure.
  • Ability to code in Python.
  • Good understanding of synthesis tools and running synthesis.
  • Capable of running and debugging logical equivalency checkers.
