Senior ASIC Timing Engineer, DFT

About the role

This position is for a DFT-Timing Engineer who will drive timing analysis and closure for DFT logic on all Nvidia chips (GPUs/CPUs/DPUs/LPUs/SoCs) at all hierarchical levels (block/cluster/full-chip).

Responsibilities

• Drive timing analysis and closure for DFT logic on all Nvidia chips (GPUs/CPUs/DPUs/LPUs/SoCs) at all hierarchical levels (block/cluster/full-chip).
• Work with PD, DFX, Clocks and other teams to come up with timing closure strategy, develop timing constraints for custom DFT designs, drive timing and power convergence, and implement ECOs.
• Continuously improve workflows and designs by introducing more automation, resilience, and standardization.

Requirements

• BS (or equivalent experience) in Electrical or Computer Engineering with 5+ years’ experience or MS (or equivalent experience) with 2+ years’ experience.
• Hands-on experience in Static Timing Analysis (STA) and driving timing convergence at full-chip/sub-chip level in advanced technology nodes.
• Expertise in analysis and fixing of timing paths through ECOs.
• Expertise in developing timing constraints.
• In-depth knowledge of industry standard timing convergence tools.

Qualifications

• Understanding of DFT logic and experience with DFT timing closure for various modes e.g., scan, iJTAG, etc.
• Background in domain specific STA and timing convergence, such as Serdes, Processor, IO, SMVA, etc.
• Experience in methodology and/or workflow development.

Skills

• Strong analytical skills.
• Excellent problem-solving abilities.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
