Senior Staff Engineer – Physical Design (EMIR)
Location: Bengaluru
Experience: 10–15 Years
Role Overview
We are looking for a technically strong Senior Staff Engineer with deep expertise in Physical Design and Electromigration (EM) and IR Drop (IR) analysis for complex ASIC/SoC designs. The role focuses on power integrity, EMIR sign-off, physical implementation optimization, and closure across advanced technology nodes.
Key Responsibilities
• Drive end-to-end physical design activities, including floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis (CTS), routing, and physical sign-off.
• Own EMIR analysis and sign-off, including static and dynamic IR drop, signal EM, and power-grid EM analysis.
• Analyze and debug EMIR violations; drive root-cause analysis and implement corrective actions.
• Optimize power distribution networks (PDN), power straps, via structures, and power-grid connectivity to meet reliability and voltage-drop requirements.
• Perform power integrity analysis across multiple operating modes, corners, and activity scenarios.
• Collaborate with RTL, synthesis, timing,



and physical design teams to resolve power integrity and timing-related issues.
• Drive timing, congestion, power, and area optimization while maintaining EMIR and reliability constraints.
• Support sign-off closure through iterative analysis, ECO implementation, and correlation between implementation and sign-off tools.
• Develop automation scripts and methodologies to improve EMIR analysis efficiency and sign-off quality.

Required Technical Skills
• 10–15 years of hands-on experience in ASIC/SoC Physical Design.
• Strong expertise in EMIR analysis, debugging, optimization, and sign-off.
• Experience with static and dynamic IR drop, signal EM, power-grid EM, and power integrity analysis.
• Proficiency in industry-standard tools such as Cadence Voltus, Ansys RedHawk-SC, or equivalent.
• Solid understanding of power delivery networks, power-grid design, current density, voltage drop, and ele
