Role Summary

We are seeking an experienced Physical Design Engineer with strong debug skills in Synthesis, UPF, VCLP, LEC to join our semiconductor backend team. The role focuses on RTL synthesis ownership, LEC closure, UPF development, and VCLP sign‑off for complex SoC designs, working closely with Physical Design, DFT, and Front‑End teams.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own RTL synthesis from elaboration to final sign‑off.
  • Develop and debug design constraints and support DFT insertion.
  • Understand Physical design cycle and different handshaking across teams.
  • Perform and close logic equivalence checks (LEC) across RTL, synthesized, and ECO netlists.
  • Create, maintain, and debug UPF, ensuring alignment with FE power intent.
  • Define and manage power domains (power switches, isolation, retention, always‑on).
  • Support low‑power sign‑off (V...
