About the Role Timing Closure Leadership: Deliver sign-off quality STA across complex, high-frequency designs, ensuring robust performance in diverse modes and corners. Responsibilities Timing Closure Leadership: Deliver sign-off quality STA across complex, high-frequency designs, ensuring robust performance in diverse modes and corners. Customer Impact: Translate technical excellence into measurable outcomes for customers — faster turnaround, improved QoR, and optimized PPA trade-offs. Constraint Development: Architect and validate timing constraints to guarantee design reliability and seamless integration into customer workflows. Synthesis & Optimization: Own synthesis flows using Fusion Compiler and Design Compiler, achieving customer-defined targets for timing, area, and power. Cross-functional Collaboration:



Partner with RTL, PD, and DFT teams to proactively resolve design challenges, ensuring smooth delivery for customer programs. AI-driven Design: Apply reinforcement learning tools (DSO.ai) to accelerate design space exploration, delivering cutting-edge solutions that reduce cycle time. Low Power & UPF: Implement and verify UPF-based power intent, ensuring energy-efficient designs aligned with customer requirements. Formal Equivalence & ECOs: Guarantee functional correctness through formal verification and ECO generation, enabling reliable customer tape-outs.
