Job Description

We are looking for SoC Design Engineers with Design Automation roles. Your responsibilities in this highly visible role will include but not be limited to: -

* Develop, support and drive project execution formal verification flows and methodology for cell-based and/or transistor-based designs.

* Drive solutions to perform formal verification, logic equivalence checking (LEC) using both external Engineering Design Automation (EDA) tools and internal CAD tools for back-end design work (design construction, power estimation and optimization, formal verification and RTL ECO)

* Partner with CPU design team engineers to highlight issues, debug complex problems and develop innovative solutions for analysis debug, flow scripts and signoff

* Creates flows/scripts to analyze, test and improve design methodologies

* Develops custom optimized solutions to address design requirements for latest technology nodes

* Provide technical direction by identifying gaps in current EDA solutions and drive enhancements through vendors

* Contribute to the development of multidimensional designs involving the layout of complex integrated circuits.

* Expand and standardize design methodologies, especially those related to synthesis, formal verification, activity annotation for power estimation, and ECOs.

* Documenting and helping with guidelines/specs

The ideal candidate should exhibit the following behavioral traits:

* Inter-personal, clear communication and teamwork skills.

* You need to possess a can-do attitude, are driven by research, problem-solving, and thrive on challenges.

* Self-motivator with strong problem solving skills
