STA Synthesis -7+yrs

 

 

Backend Integration Engineer/ STA Engineer

Location- Bengaluru

Experience: 7-15 Years

 

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

·          Utilize Synthesis tool variables and methodologies to extract the best PPA achievable. (Genus/Fusion Compiler)

·          Analyze critical timing violation groups and congestion – solve them by finetune floorplan or placement constraints.

·          DFT Insertion and debugging basic DFT DRC issues.

·          Interact with Design teams & Physical design teams to get the best synthesis results.

·          Experience in Logic Equivalence Checks Conformal LEC/Formality, Low power Checks (UPF/CLP).

OR

 

·          Responsible for Multi Voltage domain STA environment setup, execution and timing closure

·          Drive the timing checks at pre-layout/placement/pre-CTS/ post-CTS/Route stages, debug skew/latency issues and achieve timing signoff.

·          Ensuring timing correlation between PnR <-> STA and timely feedback to PD team

·          Driving SoC level timing Closure.

·          Generating timing ECO using Tweaker/Prime Closure.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

·          5+ years of experience in timing closure of high frequency blocks both from Physical aware Synthesis/Timing Closure perspective (> GHz range)

·          Analyzing the timing reports and identifying both design and constraints related issues.

·          Worked on blocks/SoC with multiple power and voltage domains

·          Preferred EDA tool experience: Primetime, Tweaker/Prime Closure, Genus/Innovus/Fusion Compiler.

·          Good Understanding of DFT modes/DFT architecture to debug MMMC timing violations

·          Good understanding of physical design flow and ECO implementation

·          Strong understanding of SDC constraints & AOCV/POCV concepts.

·          Strong TCL/scripting knowledge.

Desirable :

·          Strong debugging, analysis/problem solving and presentations skills.

·          Take initiative towards Design/Dataflow Understanding and drive design changes/flow enhancements for faster convergence

·          Interaction with all stake holders which includes weekly status reporting, issue tracking and resolution.

·          Project management experience.
