Circuit Design Engineer - Senior

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Design and verify custom standard cells using analog design tools. Perform HSPICE/Spectre simulations for standard cells characterization.

• Design, develop and enhance the verification environment, including test benches for relevant EDA views (schematic/verilog/liberty views are some examples).

• Create, maintain and improve design flows and infrastructure systems.

• Benchmark 3rd party Standard Cell Libraries for performance, power, and area including through Synthesis and Place and Route.

IDEAL CANDIDATE WILL HAVE:

• Required: Strong knowledge of CMOS integrated circuits. Working experience with HSPICE or Spectre and other CAD tools required for schematic/layout design. - 3-4+ years' experience

• Experience with ASIC EDA tools used in synthesis, place and route, simulation, static timing analysis, test insertion, and formal verification.

• Experience with Hardware Description Languages such as Verilog.

• Successful development of verification test benches using ModelSim, VCS or NCSim.

• Proficient in UNIX (Linux) platforms

• A good understanding of UNIX, C, Perl, Tcl, SPICE, JavaScript and SKILL are assets.

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

• BS in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
