Job Description:**

  • You are a diligent Design/SDC Engineer with strong analytical skills and a deep understanding of timing constraints, including clock groups, exceptions, and clock exclusivity.
  • Proficient in industry-standard SDC/STA tools and scripting for automation, you excel at identifying and resolving timing issues across all design levels.
  • You will collaborate with Front-end and Back-end teams to understand chip architecture and guide them in refining design and timing constraints for seamless physical design closure.
  • As part of this team, you’ll contribute to developing next-generation networking chips.

  • Helping develop efficient methodology to promote block level SDCs to fullchip, and to bring fullchip SDC changes back to block level.
  • Helping develop and apply methodology to ensure correctness and quality of SDCs as early as possible in design cycle.
  • Reviewing block level SDCs and clocking diagrams and mentor other RTL design owners on SDC development.
  • Creating fullchip clocking diagrams and related documentation.

  • 8 Years of experience

Skillsets:

  • Experience with block/full chip SDC development in functional and test modes.
  • Experience in Static Timing Analysis and prior working experience with STA tools like PrimeTime/Tempus.
  • Understanding of related digital design concepts (e.g., clocking and async boundaries).
  • Experience with synthesis tools (e.g., Synopsys DC/DCG/FC), Verilog/System Verilog programming.
  • Experience with constraint analyzer tools such as TCM (Timing Constraint Manager from Synopsys) and CCD (Conformal Constraint Designer from Cadence).
  • Experience with Spyglass CDC and glitch analysis.
  • Experience using Formal Verification: Synopsys Formality and Cadence LEC.
  • Experience with scripting languages such as Python, Perl, or TCL.
