STA engineers
Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
STA Engineers:
Location: Bangalore/Hyderabad/Pune/Noida
Responsibilities
·Ability to work with RTL design team to identify the must changes in RTL to coverage the timing and work with PD teams to analyze the post route timing & support the final timing closure.
Drive the sign-off timing convergence for high performance designs.
Work closely with block owners throughout the project for sign-off timing convergence.
· Timing analysis, validation and debug across multiple PVT conditions using PT/Tempus
Run Primetime and/or Tempus for STA flow optimization and Spice to STA correlation.
Evaluate multiple timing methodologies/tools on different designs and technology nodes.
Minimum Qualifications:
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 3+ years of Hardware Engineering or related work experience.
Preferred Qualification/Skills
Experience in timing analysis/debug and driving the timing convergence for complex blocks & release the netlists to PD team
Strong expertise in STA timing analysis basics, AOCV/POCV concepts, CTS, defining and managing timing constraints, Latch transparency handling, 0-cycle, multi-cycle path handling
Hands-on experience with STA tools - Prime-time/ Tempus
Have experience in driving timing convergence at Chip-level and Hard-Macro level
