- Scope and define the physical architecture of designs, utilizing EDA vendor tools to build, adapt, and maintain a robust flow from netlist to full closure and GDSII generation.
- Partner with RTL circuit designers and other layout engineers to create optimal floorplans, design power grids, and clock distribution networks that achieve the best performance and power efficiency.
- Navigate and fine-tune EDA tool settings, parameters, and attributes to ensure signoff-quality results with an optimal balance of performance, power, and area (PPA).
- Identify and propose alternative implementations, trade-offs, and solutions to achieve lower power consumption and higher performance.
- Collaborate with analog designers and ASIC/SoC teams to integrate analog blocks seamlessly into the overall design.
- Conduct initial Place & Route trials to refine design and correlation, influencing circuit architecture by working closely with RTL designers and architects to ensure reliable and closable physical design.
- Generate and implement timing ECOs to achieve timing closure, as well as functional ECOs to address RTL feature fixes when necessary.
- Utilize tools like Formality or Conformal for formal verification, analyzing reports and ensuring design accuracy and integrity.
- Write scripts to enhance productivity and efficiency for yourself and other backend engineers. Collaborate with tool and technology vendors to drive fixes, improve workflows, and evaluate new tools and features.
- Produce concise status reports at various stages of development, highlighting trade-offs and providing actionable insights.
- Understand and implement Design for Test (DFT) requirements provided by the ASIC service provider. Use physical-aware synthesis features to mitigate timing issues associated with layout and/or ECOs.
- Resolve timing challenges associated with DFT through scan chain reordering, placement, and CTS constraints.
- Run Static Timing Analysis (STA), analyze timing reports, and debug issues related to timing constraints, missing exceptions, and tool correlation between P&R and STA tools, ect.
- Your expertise in physical design, collaboration with cross-functional teams, and ability to innovate will be instrumental in advancing Ciena's cutting-edge optical networking solutions.
The above lists are intended to describe the general nature and level of work, and they are not intended to be a comprehensive list of all responsibilities, duties and skills required to be qualified and to be performed by the selected candidate.
