The Role

FCT - MTS Silicon Design Engineer

- As a member of the PD Full Chip STA closure and optimization team, you will work on SoC Full Chip Timing closure which includes high frequency CPU, HBM, DDR, Serdes interfaces. Will be responsible for SDC validation and timing signoff execution with different team members and will work closely with the methodology and CAD teams across various geographies to achieve first pass silicon success.

The Person

- A successful person in this role would be able to work in a collaborative team environment working with other business units, central methodology team driving the group signoff and solving the critical issues with vendor.
- Robust self-driving ability, should have excellent communication skills (both written and oral)

Key Responsibilities

- Owns full chip timing closure
- Clock build guidance using multiple methods MSCTS, Mesh
- Design repeater feedback based on timing across blocks
- Drive new improvement in closure
- Analysis of data and feedback to PD execution team
- SDC analysis and feedback
- Work with PnR engineer for timing convergence
- Drive the common STA methodology in the business unit
- Work and collaborate with different business units, CAD and central methodology team to drive the requirement




- Automation to refine and improve design signoff requirement and dashboarding
- Ability to organize and present complex technical information in a crisp and concise manner.
- Interact with other PPA (equivalent) teams internal to AMD
- Identify best practices across AMD and industry to update and improve flow/project settings
- To increase the competitiveness of each stage in AMD design flow
- Ability to work with multi-level functional teams across various geographies.
- Highly organized, strong affinity for automation and prioritization.

Preferred Experience

- 8+ years or more experience in design signoff closure
- Timing closure experience at SoC and block level
- Technical depth in STA; high-frequency interface closure in hierarchical STA.
- Multi-voltage closure
- Timing ECO flow
- Hyperscale, yield analysis
- PnR and STA signoff correlation drive and convergence
