Job Description

Position Title: Digital Backend Design Engineer

:

1. Lead physical implementation at both block and top levels, including floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis (CTS), and routing;

2. Drive timing closure, formal verification, low-power analysis, and power optimization;

3. Perform IR drop and electromigration (EM) analysis, as well as physical verification including DRC, LVS, and ESD checks;

4. Support cross-functional integration and validation between frontend and backend design teams;

5. Contribute to the development and refinement of backend flows for advanced process technologies.

Requirements:

1. Master's degree or higher in Microelectronics, IC Design, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field;

2. 3-5+ years of hands-on experience in digital backend design for ASIC or SoC products;

3. Proven experience with advanced technology nodes such as 3nm, 4nm, or 6nm, with successful tape-out records;

4. Strong background working with major foundries such as TSMC or Samsung at either block-level or full-chip scale;

5. Proficient with industry-standard EDA tools, including Cadence and/or Synopsys platforms for P&R, STA, and physical verification;

6. Deep expertise across the full backend flow--from netlist to GDSII--including floorplanning, power planning, placement, optimization, CTS, routing, ECO implementation, RC/SPEF extraction, and STA sign-off;

7. Solid grasp of static timing analysis and low-power design techniques (e.g., multi-VDD, power domains, UPF);

8. Experience with complex SoC projects; familiarity with high-speed modules such as CPU, DDR, or SerDes is a strong advantage;

9. Proficient in automation and scripting using languages such as Tcl, Perl, or Shell;

10. Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset, with the ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams.
