What You’ll Do:
We are looking for experienced STA engineer to drive the timing convergence of the high performance SoCs. Responsibilities include
· STA setup, convergence, reviews and sign-off for Multi-Mode and Multi-corner Multi voltage domain designs.
· Constraint Generation & Maintenance for Block / SOC for complex hierarchical Designs for all the Modes
· Timing analysis, and timing closure at Full chip level while supporting the PD team on Block/SS level timing convergence.
· Interaction with Design, DFT, IP&PD teams for Timing Convergence & Resolving Constraint Conflicts .
· Support Verification team to enable GLS.
· Drive the CTS strategies and provide feedback to Implementation Team.
· Drive and own the timing ECO generation and strategize the implementation methodology
· Develop Automation scripts with-in STA tools for Methodology development.
