This role primarily supports Foundry PDK teams and Design Service teams by enabling EM/IR and thermal signoff technologies through robust techfile development and reference flow creation.
- Support foundry PDK teams in development and validation of EM/IR and Thermal techfiles for Voltus and Celsius.
- Define and validate power integrity, EM, and thermal modeling assumptions aligned with foundry signoff requirements.
- Collaborate with PDK, extraction, and signoff teams to ensure tool readiness for advanced-node and 3DIC processes.
- Develop and maintain design reference flows for EM/IR and thermal signoff used by design service teams.
- Support hierarchical and full-chip signoff flows from early design stages to tape-out.
- Provide flow debugging and convergence support for large SoC and multi-die designs.
- Static/Dynamic IR drop and EM signoff using Voltus.
- Electro-thermal co-analysis using Voltus and Celsius.
- Advanced-node, chiplet, and 3DIC thermal analysis.
- Strong understanding of EM/IR and thermal fundamentals.
- Experience with UNIX/Linux environments and Tcl/Python scripting.
- Familiarity with digital backend and signoff flows.
