We are seeking an experienced
Lead STA Engineer
to take ownership of the static timing closure process for complex ASIC/SoC designs. In this role, you will lead timing sign-off activities, coordinate with cross-functional teams, and ensure designs meet performance, power, and area targets while achieving first-pass silicon success.
Key Responsibilities:
Own and drive
timing closure
for multiple blocks or full-chip designs from synthesis through tape-out.
Develop and maintain
timing constraints (SDC)
for synthesis, place-and-route, and sign-off flows.
Perform
setup, hold, recovery, and removal analysis
using industry-standard STA tools.
Analyze timing reports and debug violations, providing guidance to physical design, RTL, and DFT teams.
Work closely with clock, power, and signal integrity engineers to address timing and noise-related issues.
Lead STA reviews with design and physical implementation teams, ensuring issues are tracked and resolved.
Collaborate with methodology teams to enhance STA flows and timing sign-off quality.
Contribute to methodology improvements for STA and PNR flows.




Mentor and guide junior engineers in STA and timing-driven PNR techniques.
Must-Have:
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical/Electronics/Computer Engineering or related field.
***** years
of hands-on experience in STA for large, complex ASIC/SoC designs.
Proven
PNR experience
to handle flat SoC designs in Cadence flow. Solid understanding of
multi-mode, multi-corner (MMMC)
timing analysis.
Proficiency in
timing constraints writing
(SDC), clock domain crossing (CDC) considerations, and asynchronous interface analysis.
Experience with
ECO timing closure
and post-route sign-off.
Prior experience in
team leadership or technical mentoring
.
Nice-to-Have:
Familiarity with scripting languages (
Tcl, Perl, Python
) for flow automation.
Exposure to low-power design techniques (UPF/CPF).
Knowledge of signal integrity, EM/IR drop impacts on timing.
Experience in the
automotive industry
is a plus
