Contract Computer Aided Design information

What is the difference between Contract Computer Aided Design vs Contract Drafting?

AspectContract Computer Aided DesignContract Drafting
CredentialsProficiency in CAD software, technical drawing skillsKnowledge of drafting standards, basic CAD skills
Work EnvironmentDesign studios, engineering firms, manufacturing companiesArchitectural firms, engineering offices, construction companies
Industry UsageProduct design, mechanical, civil, electrical engineeringArchitectural plans, construction documents, technical drawings

Contract Computer Aided Design and Contract Drafting both involve creating technical drawings, but CAD focuses on detailed 3D modeling and complex design work, while Drafting emphasizes producing precise 2D drawings based on specifications. CAD professionals often require advanced software skills, whereas Drafting roles may need familiarity with drafting standards. Both are essential in engineering and architecture industries, but CAD offers broader design capabilities.

Job description

Duration: 6+ months contract

Location: San Jose, CA (Onsite, 5 days/week)

Description

  • Develop, maintain, and enhance EDA/CAD flows for ASIC design (RTL GDSII lifecycle exposure preferred)
  • Build automated flow checks for design validation, quality metrics, and regression monitoring
  • Create interactive dashboards and reporting tools to track design progress, QoR (Quality of Results), and key KPIs
  • Leverage AI/LLM-based tools to accelerate script development, debug flows, and generate insights from design data
  • Collaborate with design teams (RTL, PD, DV, DFT, STA) to identify gaps and implement automation solutions
  • Integrate tools and workflows across environments (Linux-based EDA setups, compute clusters, etc.)
  • Analyze large datasets from design runs and provide actionable insights
  • Improve productivity by automating repetitive engineering tasks and optimizing workflows
  • Ensure robustness, scalability, and maintainability of developed solutions

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience in CAD/EDA development or related engineering roles
  • Strong programming skills in Python (mandatory) and scripting languages such as TCL, Bash, or Perl
  • Basic understanding of ASIC design flow (RTL, synthesis, place & route, STA, verification concepts)
  • Experience with Linux/Unix environments and job scheduling systems
  • Hands-on experience building automation frameworks, validation checks, or internal tools
  • Familiarity with data visualization tools (e.g., dashboards using Python, web frameworks, or BI tools)
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in a fast-paced environment

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with EDA tools (e.g., Synopsys, Cadence, Siemens/Mentor toolchains)
  • Exposure to design data formats (logs, reports, timing/power data, etc.)
  • Experience with AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, internal LLMs) and prompt engineering
  • Knowledge of data engineering concepts (data pipelines, parsing large datasets, analytics)
  • Familiarity with cloud or distributed compute environments
  • Experience building web-based dashboards (Flask, Django, React, etc.)
