We are seeking a high-caliber Staff or Senior Staff Physical Design Engineer with a specialized mastery of Floorplanning design.
You won't just be pushing buttons; you will be the architectural bridge between RTL/Systems and the final GDSII. This role requires a visionary who understands how a single floorplan decision ripples through the entire PPA (Power, Performance, Area) spectrum.
As a technical lead, you will own the chip-top floorplan for complex, large-scale So Cs or Sub-chips, driving strategies that balance aggressive performance targets with robust power integrity.
Key Responsibilities
Architectural Floorplanning: Lead chip-level floorplanning, including macro placement, pin assignment, and partition definition for multi-million gate designs. EMIR Mastery: Perform exhaustive IR-drop (Static/Energetic) and Electromigration (EM) analysis. You must be able to diagnose root causes and propose architectural or physical fixes that don't compromise timing. Cross-Functional PPA Trade-offs: Collaborate directly with RTL and Architecture teams. You will use "Design Thin
