Job Requisition ID: R-10066221

Required Qualifications

- B.Tech/M.Tech in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, VLSI, or related field.
- 8 years of experience in Physical Design, Power Integrity, or Signoff.

Key ResponsibilitiesTechnical Skills:

- Own full-chip and subsystem-level PDN signoff for complex SoCs.
- Define PDN signoff criteria across project milestones.
- Drive power integrity closure for functional, DFT, LBIST, capture, and stress modes.
- Lead package-aware IR/EM analysis and chip-package co-optimization.
- Define and review power grid architecture, bump planning, power switch strategy, and decap methodology.
- Drive Vmin, peak EM, energetic IR, and thermal-aware analysis.

Methodology & Innovation:

- Develop next-generation PDN signoff methodologies.
- Automate PDN flows using TCL/Python/Shell.
- Improve runtime, capacity, dashboarding, and regression infrastructure.
- Collaborate with EDA vendors (Ansys/Cadence/Synopsys) for feature enhancements and tool debug.
- Establish best practices and reusable signoff frameworks across projects.

Cross-Functional Collaboration:





- Work closely with Physical Design teams to drive PDN-aware floorplanning, placement, routing, and ECO solutions.
- Partner with DFT teams to optimize pattern power and capture-mode reliability.
- Collaborate with Package and Thermal teams on package RLC optimization and thermal correlation.
- Support silicon bring-up, debug, and correlation of pre-silicon versus post-silicon measurements.

Project Execution:

- Provide technical risk assessment and mitigation plans.
- Drive closure of critical PDN hotspots with minimal PPA impact.
- Present signoff status to management and project stakeholders.
- Ensure on-time delivery for tapeout milestones.
- Lead reviews for high-risk blocks and top-level integrations.

People Leadership:

- Mentor engineers and PDN owners across multiple projects.
- Define training content and technical roadmaps for the team.
- Lead technical reviews and establish signoff governance.
- Influence organizational PDN strategy and future technology direction.
