Join us to transform the future through continuous technological innovation.
You Are:
You are an accomplished ASIC Physical Design leader with a passion for developing cutting-edge silicon solutions and building high-performing teams. With 15-20+ years of progressive experience in VLSI and ASIC design, you possess a deep technical understanding of front-end and back-end processes, including RTL, verification, synthesis, and advanced node physical implementation (2nm, 3nm, 4nm, 5nm, 7nm). You thrive in dynamic, fast-paced environments and excel at leading cross-functional teams to deliver complex projects on schedule. Your hands-on expertise is matched by your strategic vision, enabling you to drive technical innovation while managing resources, budgets, and stakeholder expectations.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Leading the end-to-end physical implementation of test chips across multiple advanced foundry nodes (2nm–7nm), ensuring timely and high-quality project delivery.
- Managing, mentoring, and developing a multidisciplinary team of ASIC physical design engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence and collaboration.
- Collaborating with cross-functional teams—including front-end design, verification, and product engineering—to drive seamless project execution from RTL to GDSII.
- Overseeing project planning, resource allocation, and team budgeting to align with organizational goals and customer requirements.
- Interfacing directly with customers and stakeholders to gather requirements, provide status updates, and ensure satisfaction throughout the project lifecycle.
- Driving continuous process improvement, leveraging your expertise in Synopsys EDA tools to optimize design flows and achieve best-in-class PPA and sign-off metrics.
- Ensuring compliance with industry standards and best practices for design closure, static timing analysis (STA), and sign-off methodologies.
The Impact You Will Have:
- Championing the successful delivery of complex, high-performance ASIC designs that enable Synopsys and our customers to lead in the competitive semiconductor industry.
- Shaping the technical direction and best practices for physical design implementation across multiple programs and advanced technology nodes.
- Enhancing team capabilities through mentorship, training, and fostering a culture of innovation and continuous improvement.
- Building and maintaining strong relationships with customers, ensuring their requirements are met and exceeding expectations for quality and delivery.
- Driving operational excellence by optimizing design methodologies, tool flows, and resource utilization for maximum efficiency.
- Contributing to Synopsys’ reputation as a global leader in EDA and semiconductor solutions by delivering projects that set industry benchmarks.
What You’ll Need:
- 15-20+ years of experience in ASIC physical design, with a proven track record of successful project delivery at advanced technology nodes (2nm–7nm).
- Strong hands-on expertise in front-end (RTL, verification, synthesis) and back-end (physical implementation, STA, PPA optimization) design flows.
- Demonstrated leadership in managing, mentoring, and developing high-performing engineering teams.
- Proficiency with Synopsys EDA tools and methodologies, including tool flow optimization and sign-off processes.
- Experience in project management, team budgeting, resource planning, and stakeholder engagement.
- Excellent communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills for effective collaboration with internal and external partners.
Who You Are:
- Strategic thinker with strong problem-solving skills and a bias for action.
- Collaborative and inclusive leader who values diverse perspectives and empowers team growth.
- Adaptable and resilient in the face of challenges, with a continuous learning mindset.
- Customer-focused, with a commitment to delivering high-quality solutions that meet and exceed expectations.
- Highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
The Team You’ll Be A Part Of:
