Graduate Talent (physical Design)

Intel Intel · Semiconductors · Penang, Malaysia

This role involves the physical design implementation of custom IP and SoC designs from RTL to GDS, covering synthesis, place and route, timing analysis, power distribution, reliability, and verification/signoff. It also includes optimizing designs for power, frequency, and area, and contributing to the development of physical design methodologies and flow automation.

What you'd actually do

  1. Performs physical design implementation of custom IP and SoC designs from RTL to GDS to create a design database that is ready for manufacturing.
  2. Conducts all aspects of the physical design flow including synthesis, place and route, clock tree synthesis, floor planning, static timing analysis, power/clock distribution, reliability, and power and noise analysis.
  3. Conducts verification and signoff including formal equivalence verification, static timing analysis, reliability verification, static and dynamic power integrity, layout verification, electrical rule checking, and structural design checking.
  4. Possesses expertise in various aspects of structural and physical design, including physical clock design, timing closure, coverage analysis, multiple power domain analysis, placing, routing, synthesis, and DFT using industry-standard EDA tools.
  5. Optimizes design to improve product-level parameters such as power, frequency, and area.
