As a Physical Design Engineer within the ASICS Engineering group, you will define, model, design, optimize, verify, validate, implement, and document IP development for high-performance, high-quality, and low-power products. You will work daily to create architectures, circuit specifications, logic designs, and system simulations based on specific system-level requirements. Collaborating with cross-functional teams like software and hardware architecture, you will execute implementation strategies while evaluating the entire process flow from high-level design to synthesis, place and route, timing, and power usage. You will utilize specialized tools such as Virtuoso and RTL to GDS Flow to enable the design of individual blocks or SoCs. The role requires proficiency in scripting tools, programming languages, and design verification methods to solve complex technical challenges within the integrated circuit and ASIC development space.
