Test Chip Design Integration Engineer

Job Description

Performs integration of cell libraries, functional units, and partitions into subsystems or full chip SoC designs. Conducts the subsystem/full chip layout, integration, verification, and signoff, including formal equivalence verification, static timing analysis, reliability verification, static and dynamic power integrity, layout verification, electrical rule checking, and structural design checking. Analyzes results and makes recommendations to fix violations for current and future product architectures. Designs, develops, and innovates integration methodologies and flows to improve physical design convergence in domains such as layout, timing, clock tree, formal verification, signal integrity, IO, debug, power routing, noise reduction, reliability, and power and performance. Optimizes design to improve product level parameters such as power, frequency, and area. Collaborates with the design teams during the chip design lifecycle to drive signoff closure for tapeout and meets IP technical and delivery requirements.

This is an entry level position and compensation will be given accordignly.
