SBT is the exclusive executive recruiting firm for this confidential position.
This confidential company is strategically bringing on a hands-on technical STA lead. In this role, the timing design expert will be collaborating cross-functionally with a talented team of systems HW engineers and SW architects to develop cutting-edge computing systems. This individual will have first-hand involvement in the full lifecycle of complex chip development, solving complex challenges directly affecting tier-one customers.
Technical Responsibilities:
- Perform static timing analysis (STA) on digital circuits to ensure timing closure and identify timing-related issues
- Develop and maintain STA scripts and tools to automate timing analysis and reporting
- Collaborate with design teams to identify and resolve timing-related issues, including clock domain crossing, metastability, and setup/hold violations
- Develop and maintain timing models and constraints for complex digital circuits
- Optimize timing performance by analyzing and optimizing clock tree, flip-flop placement, and routing
- Work closely with physical design engineers to ensure timing constraints are met during the physical design phase
Qualifications
- 7+ years of industry experience is required
- Master's degree is preferred
- Proven experience with STA signoff constraint authoring for full-chip level, tapeout signoff requirements, checklists, and associated automation.
- Expertise in various static timing tools (e.g., PrimeTime, Tempus).
