Associate II - VLSI - PD SVP

The ideal candidate will have strong expertise in ASIC/SoC physical design flows, including synthesis, floorplanning, placement,PNR, clock tree synthesis, routing, timing closure, and sign-off. This role requires hands-on experience with industry-standard EDA tools and a deep understanding of advanced technology nodes.
Key ResponsibilitiesExecute floorplanning, placement, CTS, routing, and timing closure.
Drive power, performance, and area (PPA) optimization.
Conduct physical verification (DRC/LVS) and sign-off checks.Work on multi-voltage, low-power design techniques and UPF/CPF flows.
Support ECO implementation and tape-out activities.
Required Skills & Qualifications
3-5 years of experience in ASIC/SoC physical design.
Strong knowledge of EDA tools (Synopsys ICC2/Fusion Compiler, Cadence Innovus, PrimeTime, Voltus, etc.).
Expertise in timing analysis, signal integrity, and power analysis.
Experience with advanced nodes (e.g., 16nm, 5nm).
Familiarity with DFT insertion, low-power design, and multi-clock domain handling.
Good understanding of physical verification and manufacturing sign-off.
Strong problem-solving and debugging skills.
Experience in working on Automotive or Industrial MPU/MCU SoCs (preferred for safety-critical designs and compliance with standards like ISO 26262).
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with high-performance SoCs or complex IP blocks.
Knowledge of EM/IR analysis and reliability checks.

• Familiarity with scripting languages (Tcl, Perl, Python) for flow automation.
  Education
