Senior Physical Verification Engineer (full-chip/soc)

AMD AMD · Semiconductors · Hyderabad, India · Engineering

AMD is seeking a Senior Physical Verification Engineer to join their Server SOC PD group. This role will be responsible for full-chip Physical Verification signoff (DRC/LVS/ERC/DFM/Antenna/PERC) and methodology ownership on advanced nodes, partnering cross-functionally to ensure tapeout-quality delivery. The engineer will work with cutting-edge designs and solve critical physical verification issues.

What you'd actually do

  1. As a member of the Server SOC PD group, you will help bring to life cutting-edge designs.
  2. As a Senior technical contributor responsible for SoC / full-chip Physical Verification signoff (DRC/LVS/ERC/DFM/Antenna/PERC) and PV methodology ownership, partnering cross-functionally to ensure tapeout-quality delivery on advanced nodes
  3. Excellent understanding of Physical Verification flow with in-depth experience in analyzing and debugging DRC, ERC, LVS, DFM, Antenna, PERC (Mostly Working on Calibre tool)
  4. Experience in IO, Bump planning and fullchip RDL generation for Power & IO/Signals
  5. Work on physical verification (DRC/LVS) of state-of-the-art SOCs/digital IPs/blocks at cutting edge technology nodes of various foundries.
