STAFF/SENIOR STAFF SYNTHESIS/TIMING ENGINEER CORK/DUBLIN

THE ROLE:

This is an exciting opportunity to join the innovative and multi-award winning team that has developed the RF data converter sub-system, including direct-RF digital signal processing, around which Zynq® Ultrascale+™ RFSoC is built. As part of the Analog and Digital-RF design group you will help to develop a wide range of ultra challenging, high instance count (1-5M), high speed (>1G), high utilization, low power digital IPs as part of a highly collaborative mixed-signal team using the latest FinFET CMOS processes.

This is a leadership role within the team. The package will be both comprehensive and extremely competitive.

KEY RESPONSIBLITIES:

    Synthesis flow development and delivery

    STA development and signoff

    Physical implementation waiver development and signoff

    Interfacing to front end, place & route, DFx, verification, CAD, and silicon validation teams to discuss and resolve timing, power, coverage, silicon,  and other issues

    Timing constraint development and maintenance

    Interacting with analog team to define analog/digital interfaces and specification

    Mentoring and supervision of other team members, including regular knowledge sharing

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

    Extensive knowledge of physical, synthesis and static timing considerations such as timing constraints and implementation for low power, high speed and minimum area

    Experience collaborating with front end, place & route, DFx, verification, CAD and silicon validation teams

    Understanding of RTL to GDSII flows, including BEQ, Constraints Validation, DFx insertion, Timing ECO, Power Analysis, and EMIR

    Understanding of timing library characterizations, static timing margining and SPICE simulations

    Intertest in evaluating, developing and adopting AI, complex UPF and other next generation initiatives in design flows and methodologies

    A proactive, and highly collaborative approach to problem solving

    A strong record of continuous improvement, including the use of TCL, Perl/Python and shell scripting

    A strong record of collaboration and knowledge sharing

    Experience using ultra advanced technology nodes
    Experience with Vivado, Virtuoso, SPICE, Liberate AMS, and gate level simulations

    Experience of working in mixed-signal designs and interfacing between analog and digital domains

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

    Bachelors or Masters degree in computer engineering/Electrical Engineering with at least 5 years' industry experience in strongly related roles
