SOC Engineering, Physical Design Architect

Overview

At Synopsys, we drive the innovations that shape the way we live and connect. Our technology powers the Era of Pervasive Intelligence, from self-driving cars to learning machines. We lead in chip design, verification, and IP integration, empowering high-performance silicon chips and software content. Join us to transform the future through continuous technological innovation.

You are an experienced IC physical design expert, with strong leadership in digital implementation and signoff for complex, high-speed mixed-signal subsystems. You thrive in collaborative environments, can manage both local and remote teams, and have a proven track record of driving projects to tapeout. You’re hands-on, detail-oriented, and passionate about optimizing performance, power, and area. Your communication skills and technical insight make you a go-to resource for cross-functional teams.

• Technically lead and manage local and remote teams for complex Subsystem designs digital implementation and signoff.
• Guide signoff quality timing constraints development and qualification for critical Subsystem designs with hundreds of clocks.
• Drive PNR flow and methodology for timing critical muti-million deep sub-micro designs flat/hierarchical digital implementation.
• Handson expertise in all aspects of flat, hierarchical PNR implementation tasks like synthesis, floor planning, design partitioning, DFT, low power/UPF based implementation, timing constraints, clock tree synthesis, routing and optimization, extraction, timing signoff, signal integrity, physical verification, Power & IR drop signoff to debug and resolve critical implementation bottlenecks.
• Requires close interaction and collaborative teamwork with multiple functional groups front end, analog, PM/PEMs.
• Drive RTL, design partitioning, timing constraints related feedback to Frond-end team for data path optimization, clock & reset architecture improvements for enabling high speed timing closure, PPA improvements.

• Deliver signoff-quality, high-performance silicon solutions.
• Mentor and develop engineering teams.
• Drive process improvements and technical innovation.
• Enhance Synopsys’ leadership in high-speed IP.
• Facilitate successful cross-team collaboration.
• Enable next-generation chip architectures.

• MS in Electrical Engineering; 10+ years in physical design, static timing analysis.
• Must have hands-on RTL-GDSII physical implementation tapeout experience for complex high-speed flat/hierarchical designs.
• Must have experience in leading and managing local, remote implementation teams.
• Expertise of the Synopsys tools, flows and methodologies required to execute physical design projects.
• Strong scripting and software skills.

• Inclusive leader and effective communicator.
• Innovative, collaborative, and quality-driven.
• Thrives in dynamic environments.

Join a global engineering team advancing high-speed silicon IP design. We value innovation, inclusion, and technical excellence.
