The Physical Design Engineer joins a team focused on high performance PHY design, collaborating with architecture, CAD, timing, and logic design teams. This role involves managing all phases of physical design from RTL through the delivery of final GDSII files. Key responsibilities include generating block and chip level static timing constraints, building full chip floor-plans including pin placement and power grids, and developing low power clock network guidelines. The engineer will perform place and route to meet timing, area, and power constraints while implementing ECOs for noise and EM IR violations. Required skills include proficiency in Verilog, Perl, and Tcl scripting, along with expertise in STA methodology and Physical Design Verification tools. The role addresses the technical challenge of delivering high performance PHY designs through robust physical construction and integration.
