לוח משרות דרושים Backend Engineer בחיפה וסביבתה

we're seeking a highly skilled Chip Top Physical Design Engineer focusing on implementation to join our local engineering powerhouse from the ground up.
If you thrive on solving complex, unnamed challenges in deep-submicron processes, your place is with us.

As a Physical Design Engineer, you will be a key hands-on member of our PD Team in the Israel R&D center. You will execute the physical design of the SoC Top level for chips that drive the worlds largest AI clusters. You will be deeply involved in all PD disciplines of the chip, driving the tape-out (T.O.) GDS to meet strict signoff criteria (Timing, LVS, EMIR, DRC, PV, etc.), ensuring our silicon meets the extreme performance, power, and area (PPA) targets required for AI scale.

Key Responsibilities


Execute SoC Top-level physical design and actively drive full-chip convergence
Perform Top-Level physical implementation, including floor-planning, Place & Route (P&R), Clock Tree Synthesis (CTS), Power/Clock distribution, Power Integrity, and Timing/Physical signoff
Work closely with the Architecture, Design, DFT, and Product teams to achieve optimal Power, Performance, and Area (PPA). This involves participating in feasibility studies for new architectures and optimizing runs to ensure the best Quality of Results (QoR)
Resolve complex signal integrity, thermal, and power challenges inherent in high-speed connectivity silicon
Collaborate closely with the Package team on Bump-map-to-Ballout design, taking all signal integrity aspects into consideration

we're seeking a highly skilled Physical Design CAD Engineer specializing in CAD Automation and Signoff to join our local engineering powerhouse from the ground up.

This is a unique opportunity to take on meaningful technical ownership in a new site, implementing the backend execution environment and methodologies for chips that power the world's largest AI clusters. As a foundational member of the team, you will be responsible for the physical implementation environment. Your primary mission is to develop, optimize, and support automated flows from RTL to manufacturable GDSII tape-out, ensuring a methodical and efficient work environment for the entire PD team.


Key Responsibilities


Develop and maintain automated flows for Synthesis, Place & Route (P&R), and Floor-planning to ensure seamless design transitions
Implement and manage robust environments for Static Timing Analysis (STA), Power Analysis, and Physical Verification (DRC/LVS/ERC)
Write and maintain custom plug-ins and scripts (Tcl/Python) to extend vendor tool capabilities, tailoring them to specific process node constraints
Build automated "dashboards" and feedback loops to track and improve Power, Performance, and Area (PPA) metrics across design iterations
Own the design database structure and version control to ensure team alignment and data integrity
Collaborate directly with EDA vendors (Synopsys, Cadence, Siemens/Mentor) to troubleshoot flow issues and analyze tool results
Provide technical support to the broader PD team, helping them optimize individual blocks for power, performance, and timing

You'll be joining our Physical Design team within Silicon One, which is responsible for the entire backend methodology and flow development from RTL to GDS. This is a critical part of the group leading the development of high-quality VLSI designs.

Our Backend Engineers handle all aspects of chip design, including Definition, Physical Synthesis, Place and Route, Optimization, Timing Closure, Design Floor Planning.

You will be the tech lead for CAD within the team, leveraging your extensive backend and physical design experience to drive the development, optimization, and innovation of CAD methodologies and tools, ensuring the highest quality and efficiency in our chip design flows from RTL to GDS.

We demonstrate the latest silicon technologies and processes to build the largest-scale and most complex devices, pushing the boundaries of feasibility.
