Lead Software Engineer

Overview:

The Physical Verification R&D Solutions Engineering role is a multi-faceted position which requires a mix of expert-level physical verification methodology development, accuracy analysis, and performance analysis / optimization.  R&D Solutions engineers bridge software development and end-user software deployment by profiling, designing, and prototyping methodologies to enable next-generation physical verification solutions with superior performance and usability.  The R&D Solutions Engineering role is focused on flow development, analysis, and optimization for Design Rule Checking (DRC), Layout Versus Schematic (LVS), Advanced Fill and Custom Physical Verification applications on advanced semiconductor processes based on Pegasus Physical Verification System.

Desired Background:

For effectively performing in the role of a R&D Solutions engineer, one must utilize their expertise and extensive working knowledge of DRC, LVS and Fill flow development and usage in advanced semiconductor processes at feature sizes below 16 nm to enable improved performance, accuracy and usability of flows developed based on Pegasus Physical Verification System. The candidate must also possess a strong background in programming using Python /Tcl / C++, and Unix shell scripting. Further, an ability to manipulate data for analysis and visualization to aid performance profiling is an advantage.

Minimum Qualifications / Requirements:

• M.S. in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science with at least 5 years of relevant experience, or B.S. in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science with at least 7 years of relevant experience.
• US person status satisfying U.S. export control requirements as defined by the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and Export Administration Regulations (EAR)
