Role Overview
We are seeking an experienced Staff Engineer – Static Timing Analysis (STA) to lead timing analysis and signoff activities for complex SoC and advanced-node designs. In this role, you will drive timing closure across multiple blocks and full-chip designs, collaborate with cross-functional implementation teams, and contribute to STA methodology improvements. The ideal candidate should possess solid expertise in timing signoff, MMMC analysis, and advanced timing optimization techniques.

What You’ll Do
- Lead block-level and full-chip STA activities including setup, hold, recovery, removal, and noise analysis
- Drive timing closure across multiple modes and corners using MMMC methodologies
- Analyze and debug complex timing violations in collaboration with synthesis, CTS, P&R;, and ECO teams
- Define and validate timing constraints including SDC generation, timing exceptions, and clock definitions
- Perform timing signoff using industry-standard STA tools and methodologies
- Drive ECO implementation and timing optimization with focus on performance, power,



and area trade-offs
- Contribute to automation, methodology enhancement, and flow optimization initiatives

What We’re Looking For
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, or VLSI-related discipline
- 7+ years of experience in STA, timing closure, or Physical Design signoff roles
- Strong understanding of STA concepts including OCV/AOCV/POCV, SI/noise analysis, clocking methodologies, and timing exceptions
- Hands-on experience with Synopsys PrimeTime and advanced timing signoff flows
- Good understanding of synthesis, CTS, place-and-route, extraction, and ECO implementation flows
- Strong scripting skills in Tcl, Perl, Python, or Shell for automation and productivity improvement

Good to Have
- Experience with advanced-node technologies such as 7nm, 5nm, or below
- Exposure to low-power design methodologies including UPF/CPF and power-aware STA
- Experience in full-chip
