Ideal Candidates:

Ideal candidates will have:

  • Hands-on experience with the physical design process for at least one block in multiple advanced node tapeouts
  • Ability to understand what PPA limiters are from RTL and coordinate with microarchitects to change the RTL to improve/fix them
  • Experience both with in-house and outsourced physical design flows
Nice to Have:
  • Experience with physical design process for multi-die/multi-chiplet/MCM designs
  • Experience with physical design process for reticle-max or near reticle max designs
  • Experience with very high power density chips
  • Experience with the physical design process for AI chips
  • Experience with the physical design process of analog and mixed signal blocks and macros
