Job Details

Eximietas Design is hiring a Lead Physical Design (PNR) Engineer to drive high-quality implementation for advanced-node SoCs, including AI and multi-die designs. This role is hands-on and focused on delivering robust, signoff-clean physical design.

Location: San Francisco Bay Area

Level: Senior | Advanced Node Experience Required

Role Overview

You will own key aspects of the place-and-route (PNR) flow, ensuring design closure across timing, power, and physical verification for complex SoCs at advanced nodes.

Key Responsibilities

• End-to-end physical design implementation (floorplan ? route ? signoff)
• Timing closure, congestion analysis, and physical optimization
• Power planning and IR/EM-aware implementation
• Integration with signoff flows (STA, IR/EM, DRC/LVS)
• Collaboration with RTL, STA, and power integrity teams
• Flow improvements and automation using scripting

Required Skills

• Strong experience in PNR for advanced nodes (7nm, 5nm, or below)
• Expertise with industry tools (Cadence Innovus and/or Synopsys ICC2)
• Solid understanding of timing closure, signal integrity, and power analysis
• Familiarity with EM/IR concepts and signoff flows
• Scripting skills (Python, Tcl, or Perl)

Nice to Have

• Experience with multi-die / 2.5D / 3DIC designs
• Exposure to tools like Ansys RedHawk or Cadence Voltus
• Methodology or flow development experience

Why Join Us

Work on cutting-edge silicon programs where physical design quality directly impacts first-pass success.
