Senior / Staff Engineer - Digital Design

Your role
Key responsibilities in your new role

• Perform RTL-to-gate synthesis using EDA tools such as Synopsys Design Compiler/Fusion Compiler or Cadence Genus to generate optimized gate-level netlists.
• Run Static Timing Analysis (STA) including setup/hold checks across pre- and post-layout stages using tools such as Synopsys PrimeTime or Cadence Tempus.
• Collaborate with design, verification, and PD teams to ensure timing closure and design optimization.
• Assist in the development and maintenance of synthesis and STA scripts and methodologies.
• Analyze and resolve timing issues, working closely with cross-functional teams.
• Run timing constraint checks and logic equivalency checks (LEC).
• Participate in design reviews and provide feedback on timing and synthesis aspects.
• Document and report synthesis and STA results, highlighting key findings and recommendations.

Your profile
Qualifications and skills to help you succeed

• Bachelor's/Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• At least 3-5+ years of hardware engineering (or related) experience.
• Hands-on experience with logic synthesis, LEC, STA, timing constraints, and timing convergence.
• Expertise in timing closure via ECOs, including crosstalk and noise analysis.
• Background in physical design and optimization (e.g., placement, routing, cell sizing) to improve timing and power.
• Ability to run basic PD steps such as floorplanning and placement using ICC2 or Innovus (plus).
• Proficiency in scripting (Python, Tcl, Perl) for automation.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
