Full Description

NVIDIA is looking for best-in-class STA (Static Timing analysis) Physical Design Engineers to join our outstanding Networking DFT team, developing the industry's best high-speed communication devices, delivering the highest throughput and lowest latency! Come and take a part in designing our groundbreaking and innovating chips, enjoy working in a meaningful, growing and highly professional environment where you make a significant impact in a technology-focused company.

What you will be doing:

• DFT STA execution, from rtl driven constraints and definitions through DFT constraints quality assurance to STA sign-off.

• Be part of a unique team of experts who have deep understanding in all aspects of pre and post silicon.

• Be exposed and work on a variety of challenging designs, unique DFT solutions that require deep silicon implementation understanding.

• Daily work involves all aspects of static timing analysis - constraints, environment, models generation and timing ECO generation for block level and full chip level.

• Taking part in flows development.

What we need to see:

• B.SC. in Electrical Engineering/Computer Engineering.

• 2-3 years of experience as STA engineer.

• Ability to quickly adapt to new technology and go deep into new areas

• Strong communication skills

• Great teammate.

• Drive new solutions based on any issues that arise

Ways to Stand Out From the Crowd:

• Knowledge in physical design flows and methodologies (PNR, STA, physical verification).

• Knowledge in DFT flows such as ATPG, Mbist, Ijtag.

• Prior experience in DFT timing closures.

• Knowledge in CDC.

• Familiarity with physical design EDA tools (such as Synopsys, Cadence, etc.).

NVIDIA has some of the most forward-thinking people in the world working for us. Are you a creative and autonomous engineer who loves a challenge? Are you ready to become the engineer you always wanted to be? Come and be part of the best physical design team in the industry!
