Experience with EDA tools (i.e. Primetime or Tempus) and EDA Tcl commands (i.e., for timing analysis, timing closure, parasitic extraction, noise glitch, crosstalk).
Preferred qualifications:
8 years of experience in the domain of static timing analysis.
Experience leading one or more aspects of physical design or physical design flow/methodology, to successful tape-outs and shipping silicon.
Experience in extraction of design parameters, QoR metrics, and analyzing data trends.
Knowledge of semiconductor device physics, SPICE simulation and complex static timing topics, including complex clocking, timing exceptions, time budgeting, IO interface timing, ECOs, and constraint verification.
In this role, you’ll work to shape the future of AI/ML hardware acceleration. You will have an opportunity to drive cutting-edge TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) technology that powers Google's most demanding AI/ML applications. You’ll be part of a diverse team that pushes boundaries, developing custom silicon solutions that power the future of Google's TPU. You'll contribute to the innovation behind products loved by millions worldwide, and leverage your design and verification expertise to verify complex digital designs, with a specific focus on TPU architecture and its integration within AI/ML-driven systems.
In this role, you will work on the physical implementation of ASICs using advanced technology nodes. You will work on constraint development and validation, and timing closure of large, complex high performance compute ASICs. You will develop static timing methodologies, margins, automation scripts, and write documentation. You will perform technical evaluations of vendors, tools, methodologies, and will provide recommendations. Additionally, you will work with architecture, logic design, and Design for testing (DFT) teams to understand and implement the requirements.
