Senior Digital Engineer

What we’re looking for:

We are seeking a highly skilled Design Engineer to join our Silicon Engineering team. This role involves driving the design, implementation, and optimization of cutting-edge SoCs through advanced physical design methodologies. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in synthesis, floorplanning, place-and-route, timing closure, power/performance optimization, and sign-off flows.

Skills you’ll need:

• Execute the end-to-end physical design flow for complex SoCs and IP blocks (from RTL handoff to GDSII).
• Define and drive floorplanning, clock-tree synthesis (CTS), placement, routing, and timing closure strategies.
• Own and optimize power, performance, and area (PPA) metrics for assigned designs.
• Manage design constraints, synthesis strategies, and sign-off criteria (timing, IR drop, EM, DRC/LVS).
• Collaborate with front-end RTL, DFT, verification, and packaging teams to ensure seamless integration.
• Drive EDA tool flow automation and methodology enhancements for improved efficiency and scalability.
• Mentor and guide junior engineers, fostering technical growth and design excellence.
• Work closely with foundries and vendors on process technology bring-up, PDK updates, and tape-out readiness.

Education and/or Experience:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, VLSI, or related field.
• 4+ years of experience in ASIC physical design
• Hands-on expertise in EDA tools: Synopsys (ICC2, Fusion Compiler, PrimeTime),
• Cadence (Innovus, Tempus), or equivalent.
• Strong background in timing analysis, low-power methodologies, and ECO flows.
• Solid understanding of architecture-to-GDSII flows and sign-off requirements.
• Experience with chip-level integration and hierarchical design methodologies.
• Knowledge of low-power design techniques (UPF/CPF, power gating, DVFS).
• Familiarity with DFT, STA, and physical verification methodologies.
• Exposure to multi-clock, multi-voltage, and multi-domain designs
• Excellent problem-solving and communication skills.

Benefits & Perks:

Not only will you be joining a highly skilled and tight-knit team where every engineer makes a significant impact on the product; we also strive for good work/life balance and to make our environment welcoming and fun.
