What does a remote ASIC physical design engineer do?

A Remote ASIC Physical Design Engineer is responsible for transforming circuit designs into physical layouts that can be manufactured as integrated circuits (ICs), specifically Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). Their role includes tasks such as floorplanning, placement, routing, timing analysis, and verifying that the physical design meets performance and power specifications. Working remotely, they collaborate with design and verification teams using specialized EDA (Electronic Design Automation) tools to optimize chip layouts for manufacturability and efficiency. Effective communication and expertise in physical design processes are essential for success in this role.

What are some common challenges faced by a remote ASIC physical design engineer, and how can they be addressed?

Remote ASIC Physical Design Engineers often encounter challenges related to communication and collaboration, especially when coordinating with cross-functional teams such as verification, synthesis, and EDA tool support. Time zone differences and limited face-to-face interaction can make it harder to quickly resolve design issues or clarify specifications. To overcome these challenges, engineers should leverage collaborative tools, maintain clear documentation, and proactively schedule regular check-ins with team members. Building strong virtual communication habits helps ensure smooth project execution and timely delivery of design milestones.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote ASIC physical design engineer?

To thrive as a Remote ASIC Physical Design Engineer, you need a strong background in digital logic design, ASIC implementation, and a relevant engineering degree. Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools such as Synopsys, Cadence, or Mentor Graphics, as well as scripting languages like TCL and Python, is typically required. Excellent problem-solving, communication, and time management skills are vital for effective remote collaboration and project delivery. These skills and qualifications ensure high-quality chip designs, efficient workflow, and seamless teamwork in a distributed environment.

Job description

Meta is building custom silicon to power the infrastructure that underlies its family of products and services. As an ASIC Engineer specializing in power on the EDA Infrastructure team, you will develop and maintain power analysis and optimization flows that enable silicon engineers across the organization to accurately model, estimate, and reduce power consumption in custom ASIC designs. In this role, you will work at the intersection of EDA tooling, physical design, and power methodology, helping to define the infrastructure that shapes how Meta's next-generation chips are designed and verified.
ASIC Engineer, Power Responsibilities:
  • Develop and maintain power analysis flows including dynamic and static power estimation, vectorless analysis, and power intent verification using industry-standard EDA tools
  • Define and implement power methodology guidelines for RTL, synthesis, and physical design stages of the ASIC development flow
  • Collaborate with RTL design, physical design, and verification teams to identify and resolve power hotspots and inefficiencies across custom ASIC designs
  • Build and optimize EDA infrastructure scripts and automation frameworks to improve power signoff accuracy and turnaround time
  • Evaluate and integrate commercial and internally developed EDA tools into the power analysis flow, providing technical assessments and recommendations
  • Develop power intent specifications using UPF or CPF and ensure consistent application across design and implementation stages
  • Establish power budgets and track power metrics across design milestones, communicating results and risks to cross-functional stakeholders
  • Drive continuous improvement of power closure methodologies by analyzing results across multiple tape-outs and identifying systemic opportunities
  • Provide technical guidance to other engineers on power analysis best practices, flow usage, and debug techniques
  • Partner with EDA tool vendors to evaluate new capabilities and influence tool roadmaps to meet Meta silicon design requirements

Minimum Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
  • 6+ years of experience in ASIC design or physical design with a focus on power analysis, power optimization, or power signoff
  • Experience developing or maintaining EDA flows for power analysis using tools such as Synopsys PrimePower, Cadence Voltus, or equivalent
  • Experience with power intent specification languages such as UPF or CPF and their application across RTL-to-GDSII flows
  • Experience scripting in Python, Tcl, or shell to build and automate EDA infrastructure workflows
  • Experience collaborating across RTL design, physical design, and verification disciplines to drive power closure on complex ASIC designs

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience evaluating and qualifying new EDA tools or methodologies in a production silicon environment
  • Familiarity with custom or semi-custom design flows for high-performance computing or data center silicon
  • Experience with low-power design techniques including clock gating, power gating, multi-voltage domain design, and dynamic voltage and frequency scaling
  • Background in developing internal EDA infrastructure tooling or flow automation at scale across multiple concurrent design projects
