Job Title: MTS, Physical Design

Job Location: Bangalore, India (This position requires a full-time, on-site presence in our Bangalore, India Office)

Job ID: AI2554

Job Description:

Role & responsibilities:

  • Perform hands-on physical design of blocks (from synthesis to GDS) and handle complex block and/or sub-system implementation.
  • Handle all aspects of Physical Design as needed which may include bump planning and coordination with SoC floorplan but not limited to these.
  • Own the design of multiple blocks as a technical lead as needed.
  • PPA optimization.
  • Develop and validate high performance and/or low- power clock network guidelines.
  • Perform block-level place and route and close the design to meet timing, area and power constraints.
  • Drive the logic equivalency RTL2Synthesis and Synthesis2APR netlist.
  • Generate and implement ECOs to fix timing, noise and EM-IR violations.
  • Run physical design verification flow at block level and provide guidelines to fix LVS/DRC violations to other designers.
  • Participate in establishing P&R flows and physical design methodologies for correct-by-construction designs.
  • Assist in flow development and/or refinement for RTL2GDSII
  • Partner with STA teams to refine clock distribution networks, evaluate power-optimized clock gating and clock implementation strategies.
  • Architect and extend infrastructure using TCL, Python, and Perl scripts to streamline physical design metrics reporting, automate regression suites, and explore AI/ML-driven closure techniques.
  • Serve as the central point of contact for physical design convergence, aligning RTL, DFT, STA workflows while providing technical mentorship to team members.
  • Write scripts in TCL/Perl/Python to achieve productivity enhancements through automation.

Minimum Requirements:

  • BE/BTECH or ME/MTECH 12+ years of experience in physical design using 7 nm or lower.
  • DDR PD expertise is a must, expertise with 3DIC or PCIE-high speed interface is also good.
  • Timing Signoff experience with SNPS or industry standard tools
  • PDN: IR signoff and Physical verification knowledge
  • Automation skills python/Perl/TCL
  • Proficiency in automation to drive improvements in PPA.
  • Experience working on multiple technology nodes in advanced processes.
  • Design level knowledge to optimize the implementation for PPA.

Personal Attributes:

Can-do attitude. Strong team player. Curious, creative and good at solving problems. Execution and results-oriented. Self-driven, Thinks Big and is highly accountable. Good communication skills.
