EDA Design Flow Development Engineer

Job Description

About the Technology Development and Design Enablement Groups:

Technology Development (TD) is the heart and soul of Moore's Law at Intel, enabling Intel to create world-changing technology that enriches the lives of every person on earth. TD drives breakthrough research and develops next generation process and packaging technologies, while also running high volume manufacturing operations in its state-of-the-art facilities in Oregon and Arizona. The Design Enablement (DE) team in TD works closely with the technology team to maximize the value proposition of the technology for our customers thru Design Technology Co-Optimization (DTCO), delivers the Process Design Kits (PDKs) and foundational IPs (FIPs), and carries out technology lead vehicle execution for Si validation. Enablement and optimization of EDA reference flow and design flow on Intel technology play a crucial role in accomplishing DE's charter.

About the Role:

• Responsible to develop, maintain and support EDA design flow for all DTCO activities, technology lead vehicle design, IP design, and product design in TD. The design flow will be built on top of a reference flow enabled on Intel technology and released from external EDA vendors. The design flow covers all aspects of front-end and back-end design from RTL to GDS, digital and analog, design creation, verification, and signoff.

• Develops new physical design techniques through innovative scripts, checkers, flows, and other CAD based automation to simplify and expedite the design process.

• Analyzes retrospective data on current generation quality and efficiency gaps to identify proper incremental, evolutionary, or transformative changes to the existing physical design related TFM.
