Job Description and Requirements

In this role, you will be responsible for the Physical Implementation of high speed interface IPs and test-chips, driving all aspects from RTL to GDS including timing and physical sign-off, in close interaction and collaborative team work with multiple functional groups (front end, analog, CAD) and the product team.  As well, you will be expected to lead a small team of engineers performing these same tasks.

 As a Sr Staff R&D Engineer, the successful candidate will work on a variety of advanced SERDES developments including the latest 56G/112G/224G PAM4/6 standards, all at the latest process nodes. The Mixed-Signal IP organization is seeking a highly motivated individual responsible for the physical implementation of complex Mixed signal IPs and test chips across multiple process technologies with a specific focus on very advanced high speed SERDES platforms.

 The successful candidate will have the following:

 - 12 + years of digital or physical design experience with recent contribution to project tape-outs, as a technical driver and/or project lead.

- Intimate knowledge of the full design cycle from RTL to GDSII, including chip level.
 - Experience with advanced FinFET nodes, TSMC 16 nanometer or below, including low-power design techniques
 A solid engineering understanding of the underlying concepts of digital design and architecture, implementation flows and physical and timing signoff
- Development of timing constraints and design architectures to ensure on-time delivery, and to meet or exceed power and area targets
- Excellent communication skills, ability to think and communicate at different levels of abstraction, with peer groups as well as customers.
- Methodology driven with strong software and scripting skills (Perl, Tcl, Python); knowledge of CAD automation methods.
-Solid understanding of the challenges
