Senior Physical Design Engineer

We are looking for a Senior Physical Design Engineer to join our R&D team. In this role, you will be responsible for the full physical implementation of digital blocks — from Netlist to GDSII — as part of the backend design activities for Pro AV and Automotive chips.
You will work in a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment, ensuring high-quality design, optimization, and sign-off of complex SoCs.
Key Responsibilities
• Execute the full Place & Route (P&R) flow at both hierarchical and top levels, from netlist to GDSII.
• Perform placement, clock tree synthesis, routing, STA, and physical verification (DRC, LVS, ANT, etc.).
• Ensure timing closure and design convergence across multiple stages of implementation.
• Collaborate closely with front-end, architecture, and verification teams to achieve best-in-class design quality and performance.
• Drive design improvements and maintain methodologies for backend flow efficiency.
דרישות התפקיד
• B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from a recognized university.
• 6+ years of hands-on experience in automatic Place & Route (block level and top level).
• Strong scripting skills in TCL.
• Proven ability to work effectively in a multi-disciplinary and multi-site environment.
Advantages
• Familiarity with circuit optimization, IR drop, and EM prevention considerations.
• Experience with Cadence P&R tools and flows.
• Knowledge of advanced technology nodes (16nm and below).
