About the Role

Job Description:

We are seeking a Timing Implementation Engineer with strong expertise in Static Timing Analysis (STA) and RTL Synthesis for high-speed interfaces such as PCIe. This role is focused on implementation and timing closure, not design, and requires hands-on experience driving block-level and full-chip sign-off from RTL synthesis through tapeout.

Key Responsibilities

  • Perform block-level and full-chip STA across the project lifecycle, from early investigation to final tapeout.
  • Execute RTL synthesis flows, ensuring optimal QoR (Quality of Results) and alignment with timing constraints.
  • Write and develop timing constraints (SDC) for PCIe and other high-speed interfaces.
  • Build and enhance timing methodology and infrastructure to support flows from synthesis to implementation and closure.
  • Collaborate with architects and logic designers to generate accurate block and chip-level tim...
