Key Responsibilities
- Lead block-level PNR activities from floorplanning through final routing, ensuring robust physical implementation aligned with timing, power, and area goals.
- Drive power grid design and EM/IR-aware routing strategies to ensure block-level power integrity and reliability.
- Collaborate closely with timing closure engineers to resolve physical design bottlenecks impacting timing and signal integrity.
- Manage and optimize physical verification flows including DRC, LVS, antenna checks, and physical signoff.
- Automate PNR flows and develop scripts to improve productivity and design quality.
- Mentor and guide junior physical design engineers, fostering technical growth and best practices.
- Coordinate with cross-functional teams including RTL design, STA, verification, and backend integration to ensure seamless block-to-chip integration.
Qualifications and Skills
8+ years of experience in physical design with a strong focus on block-level Place and Route (PNR) for complex SoC/IP subsystems, preferably at advanced technology nodes (16nm,
7nm, 5nm, or below).
• Proven expertise in block-level physical implementation including floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis(CTS), routing, and physical verification (DRC/LVS).
• Hands-on experience with industry-standard PNR tools such as Cadence Innovus, Synopsys ICC2, and Mentor Calibre.
• Strong understanding of power grid design, EM/IRanalysis, signal integrity (SI), and reliability checks at the block level.
• Experience in managing timing closure in coordination with STA teams, resolving congestion, and optimizing for power, performance, and area (PPA).
• Proficiency in scripting languages (Tcl, Python, Perl) for flow automation and custom tool development.
• Demonstrated ability to lead block PNR efforts, coordinate with RTL designers, physical design teams, and verification groups to meet aggressive tapeout schedules.
• Familiarity with low-power design techniques and power-
aware physical implementation.
