Physical Design Engineer

We are looking for a motivated and detail-oriented Physical Design Library Engineer to join our VLSI backend team. This role sits at the intersection of library management using CAD supported tools, and AI-driven automation - playing a critical enabling function for Front End & Back End team.

You will own the end-to-end library delivery pipeline - from lib generation to tile owner unblocking - and will actively leverage and develop AI-powered tools and dashboards to improve team efficiency and visibility.

Key Responsibilities

- Having 4+ Years of experience in Physical Design
- Library Flow Ownership: Own and execute the LibBuilder flow for standard cell and memory library generation
- Drive MemView generation for memory compiler outputs across multiple PVT corners and process nodes
- Maintain library quality and consistency across NDM, Liberty (.lib), LEF, and timing model deliverables
- Track and manage PVT corner coverage - ensure all required corners (SS, FF, TT, low voltage, high temperature) are generated and validated
- Cross-Team Coordination: Serve as the primary point of contact for library-related issues raised by tile and block owners
- Proactively follow up with internal teams (design, DFT, timing) and external teams (foundry, IP vendors, memory compiler vendors) to resolve library blockers
- Unblock tile owners on NDM / PVT mismatch issues - diagnose root cause, coordinate fix,



and validate resolution
- Coordinate with CAD team to ensure the latest compiler versions, EDA tool updates, and flow scripts are adopted in a timely manner
- Debug and Issue Resolution: Perform basic to intermediate debug of library generation failures - identify issues in lib characterization, corner mapping, or MemView configuration
- Triage and escalate complex issues to the right teams with transparent problem statements and reproduction steps
- Maintain a library issue tracker - log, prioritize, and close issues with documented root cause and fix
- AI Tools and Dashboard Development: Comfortable working with AI-assisted tools (Genie, Claude Code, Copilot) for day-to-day productivity - querying, scripting, and automation
- Develop, enhance, and maintain AI-generated dashboards for library health, flow status, and PVT coverage visibility
- Proactively identify opportunities to automate repetitive library tasks using AI and scripting

Knowledge of Physical Design Concepts

- Timing concepts
- Different file formats, LEF/DEF/OASIS

Qualifications

- Bachelor's or master's degree in related discipline preferred
