Senior Physical Design Engineer

Location: Bengaluru, India

Experience: 4–8 Years

Role

Join our Physical Design team to drive implementation and signoff of complex SoCs across advanced technology nodes. You will own physical design closure with a strong focus on STA, EM/IR, timing closure, and physical signoff .

What You'll Do
Drive RTL-to-GDSII Physical Design for complex SoC/IP blocks.
Perform Floorplanning, Placement, CTS, Routing, Physical Verification, and ECO closure .
Own Static Timing Analysis (STA) and timing closure across MMMC scenarios.
Analyze and resolve EM/IR , Signal Integrity, Crosstalk, and Power Integrity violations.
Drive physical signoff including DRC, LVS, Antenna, ERC , and QoR optimization.
Collaborate with RTL, Synthesis, DFT, and Full-Chip teams to achieve PPA and tapeout targets.
Develop automation using Tcl/Python/Perl to improve design productivity.

What You Bring




4–8 years of hands-on experience in ASIC/SoC Physical Design .
Strong expertise in Floorplanning, Placement, CTS, Routing, Timing Closure, and ECO .
