About the job

Leads the physical design and implementation process for digital subsystems and SoCs, from synthesis through tapeout, while building the team and implementation flows.

What you'll do

  • Own end-to-end physical design, including synthesis, timing closure, power and clock architecture, physical verification, and IP/library management.
  • Automate implementation flows, integrate new process technologies and analog/mixed-signal components, and coordinate across engineering teams.
  • Hire, grow, and manage the physical design team.

What they ask for

  • Led physical design or implementation of large, complex SoCs through tapeout, or equivalent senior-level ownership across implementation disciplines.
  • Hands-on FinFET-class experience at 7nm–3nm.
  • Deep power and clock design experience at scale.
  • Track record of leading and growing a team.

Nice to have

  • TSMC N3 experience.
  • Experience integrating analog/mixed-signal blocks into a digital implementation flow; Cadence toolchain experience.
