Join the leading chiplet startup! As an Eliyan Physical Design Engineer, you will be working at a fast-paced early-stage startup creating technologies that fuel tomorrow’s chiplet based systems with best-in-class power, area, manufacturability, and design flexibility. You will be defining, implementing, and ensuring correctness of 8GHz+ high speed blocks. You will work with a cross-functional team of industry experts that operate from first principles, innovate, and push the envelope to create high-volume and high-performance manufacturable products. We offer a fun work environment with excellent benefits.

Key Responsibilities:
• Establish methodologies and flows for 8 GHz Synthesis and P&R, CTS, and custom routes.
• Integration of Analog/Mixed signal blocks, custom routes and Power routing.
• Develop flows that yield designs that are correct by construction.
• Work with analog and digital designers to understand block design requirements.
• Automate flows and processes to maximize engineer efficiency.
• Develop flows for identifying weaknesses in implementations/PPA.
• Automate sign-off tools for timing, DFM, reliability, EM/IR. Minimum Qualifications:
• Expertise in multiple areas of physical design, timing, and signoff.
• Strong scripting and automation skills.
• BS EE or equivalent, with 5 years of experience.

Ideal Qualifications:
• Deep expertise in P&R, Static Timing, CTS, Synthesis, EM/IR, and DFM.
• Knowledge of PHYs, DRAM interfaces, a plus.
• Working knowledge of reliability mechanisms and methods to address those.
• Knowledge of UPF and power-aware designs.
• Experience working with high-speed digital and analog/mixed signal circuits.
• MS/PhD EE or equivalent, with 7+ years of experience.
