Staff PDN Satff
Experience:
7–10 Years
Location:
Bangalore/2 days to work/3 days home
Department: RTL-to-GDSII / Physical Implementation
Role Overview
We are seeking a high-caliber Staff Physical Design Engineer with a specialized mastery of Power Delivery Network (PDN) design. You won’t just be pushing buttons; you will be the architectural bridge between RTL/Systems and the final GDSII.
Strategic PDN Design: Architect and implement complex Power Delivery Networks. You will define the metal stack usage and grid density to support high-performance cores while minimizing routing congestion.
EMIR Mastery: Perform exhaustive IR-drop (Static/Dynamic) and Electromigration (EM) analysis. You must be able to diagnose root causes and propose architectural or physical fixes that don't compromise timing.
Cross-Functional PPA Trade-offs: Collaborate directly with RTL and Architecture teams. You will use Design Thinking to influence the micro-architecture, suggesting changes to bus widths, pipeline stages, or memory configurations to optimize physical outcomes.
Methodology Development: Establish best practices and automated flows for floor planning and PDN synthesis to be used by the wider implementation team.
Technical Requirements
Core
Experience:
7+ years in Physical Design with a proven track record of multiple successful tape-outs at advanced nodes ( 7nm, 5nm, or 3nm ).
PDN Expertise:
Ability to model complex power-up sequences and multi-voltage domains.
Floor planning Savvy: Deep proficiency in hierarchical physical design and top-level integration using industry-standard tools (Innovus or IC Compiler II).
Analysis
Skills:
Strong understanding of thermal-aware PDN and the physical implications of high-current density paths.
Scripting: Advanced proficiency in Tcl, Python, or Perl to automate complex floor planning tasks and data analysis.
Behavioral Attributes
Critical Thinker: You don't just follow a recipe. You question constraints and look for hidden PPA gains.
Design Thinking: Ability to empathize with the challenges of upstream (RTL) and downstream (Sign-off) teams to create a holistic solution.
Influence: You can articulate technical trade-offs to stakeholders,
