Snr VLSI & SoC Physical Design Engineer

Join a multi-national Physical Design team as a Snr VLSI & SoC Physical Design Engineer contributing to the development of state-of-the-art Satellite SoCs, from design to production. Work on chips with complex digital and analog modules, including next-generation radiation-hardened satellite modems, using leading-edge EDA tools and process technologies.

Key Responsibilities:

• Physical implementation of complex SoCs and VLSI devices, integrating custom and 3rd-party IP.
• Full block-level timing closure and manufacturing checks, including power planning and analysis.
• Collaborate with Logic Design RTL team to develop timing constraints at block and chip level.
• Insert DFT test structures and support chip-level integration, capture, and simulation.
• Contribute to process improvements and career development initiatives.

Experience:

• BSc in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
• Strong commercial experience in physical design engineering (ASIC/SoC).
• Deep knowledge of COT/ASIC design flows: synthesis, floor-planning, P&R, CTS, STA, timing closure, physical verification, power analysis, DFT/ATPG.
• Experience with deep sub-micron processes (28nm or below).
• Proficiency in scripting languages (Tcl, Python, Perl) and EDA tools (Cadence or Synopsys).
• Strong problem-solving, analytical, and collaboration skills.
• Experience interfacing with design teams, IP/library suppliers, and EDA vendors.
