THE ROLE
We are seeking an adaptive, self-motivated Physical Design Engineer to join our growing team. As a key contributor, you will help drive AMD’s capabilities in delivering high-performance, power-efficient silicon solutions. The Physical Design team values continuous technical innovation and supports professional growth through challenging projects and collaborative success. In this role, you will be responsible for full-chip floorplanning, physical implementation, timing closure, and power optimization across complex SoC designs.
THE PERSON
You are passionate about modern, complex processor architectures and bring deep expertise in physical implementation flows. You have experience in full-chip floorplanning, synthesis, place and route, timing closure, and power optimization. You are a collaborative team player with strong communication skills and a history of working across geographies and disciplines. You possess excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities, are eager to learn, and thrive in tackling complex design challenges.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Define chip-level partitioning, block placement strategy, and macro integration to meet design and performance goals
- Demonstrate hands‑on expertise in full-chip floorplanning, including feedthrough topology planning, repeater insertion, top‑level port/pin assignment and alignment, and source‑synchronous bus layout
- Optimize full-chip floorplan for timing, power, and area across the entire chip
- Collaborate closely with RTL, physical design, and architecture teams to gather and implement design requirements effectively
- Conduct layout feasibility studies through what‑if analysis and trade‑off evaluations
- Utilize industry‑standard EDA tools such as Cadence Innovus, Synopsys ICC, and Calibre for physical implementation and verification
- Develop and maintain automation scripts using Tcl, Perl, and Python to enhance floorplanning efficiency and consistency
- Apply low‑power design techniques; familiarity with voltage domain crossing checks is a strong asset
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE
- Extensive experience in SoC implementation and tapeout
- Strong expertise in physical design methodologies and flows
- Proficient with Synopsys Fusion Compiler (FC)
- Solid understanding of SoC architecture and design, including AXI buses, source synchronous design, and test design
- Highly committed to meeting project milestones with high‑quality timing constraint delivery
- Experienced in complex SoC full‑chip timing floorplanning and timing quality checks
- Excellent communication skills; capable of working independently and collaboratively within a team
- Proven ability to collaborate effectively with IP and PD teams for timing closure
- Demonstrated leadership and strong teamwork capabilities
- Skilled in script development using Perl and Shell; experienced in Verilog RTL design
