Role and Responsibilities:
As a Graphics Physical Design Lead, you will be responsible for innovating, developing, and implementing GPU cores using state-of-the-art tools and technologies. You will be part of a team responsible for the complete Physical Design Flow and the delivery of complex, high-speed, low-power GPU cores. Your tasks will include the development and enablement of low-power implementation methods, customized place, and route (P&R) to achieve area optimization and performance goals. Additional responsibilities include:
Understanding functional and test (DFT) mode constraints for place and route.
Floor planning, power planning, IR drop analysis, and placement.
Multi-mode and multi-corner (MMMC) clock tree synthesis, routing, timing optimization, and closure.
RC extraction, signal integrity, crosstalk noise and delay analysis.
Debugging timing violations for multi-mode and multi-corner designs, implementing timing fixes, rolling in functional ECOs, debugging, and fixing violations, and formal verification.
Qualifications:
The ideal candidate should possess deep knowledge of scripting and software languages, including PERL/TCL, Linux/Unix shell, and C. This individual will design, verify, and deliver complex Physical Design solutions from netlist and timing constraints to the final product.

Bachelor’s or Masters degree in Electrical or Electronic Engineering from a reputed institution.
Over 12 years of experience in Physical Design and Implementation.
Minimum Requirements:
Expertise in physical implementation activities for high-performance GPU cores, including floor-planning, place and route, clock tree synthesis (CTS), formal verification, physical verification (DRC/LVS), power distribution network (PDN), timing closure, and power optimization.
Proficient in physical design implementation of performance, power, and area (PPA) critical cores, with the ability to make informed PPA trade-off decisions.
Strong expertise in achieving timing convergence for high-frequency, data-path intensive cores and advanced static timing analysis (STA) concepts.
Well-versed in block-level place and route (PnR) convergence using Synopsys ICC2 or Cadence Innovus, and timing convergence using PTSI or Tempus in the latest technology nodes.
Comprehensive understanding of clocking architecture.
Ability to collaborate closely with design, DFT, and PNR teams to resolve issues related to constraints validation, verification, STA, and physical design.
Proficient in Tcl and Perl scripting.
Experience working as part of a larger team, meeting project milestones and deadlines, and handling technical deliverables with a small team of engineers.
Strong problem-solving skills and excellent communication skills.
