About this role
At Cadence, we hire and develop leaders and innovators who want to make an impact on the world of technology. Key Responsibilities – Foundry Design Service Team Support
• Develop and maintain Genus‑to‑Innovus digital implementation reference flows for foundry design service teams. • Support RTL synthesis, floorplanning, placement, CTS, routing, and physical optimization for production SoC designs. • Provide methodology guidance on timing closure, congestion mitigation, and power‑aware implementation at advanced nodes. • Support hierarchical and block‑based implementation flows used in design services and multi‑project environments. • Diagnose and resolve convergence issues impacting timing, power, area, and routability in late design stages. • Enable reusable, standardized implementation flows across multiple foundry design service programs. Foundry Common Requirements – Genus & Innovus Enablement
• Support foundry‑preferred synthesis and place‑and‑route methodologies aligned with signoff expectations. • Enable consistent constraint handling (SDC, UPF) across RTL synthesis and physical implementation stages. • Support power‑intent driven implementation flows including low‑power optimization and power domain integration. • Provide guidance on advanced‑node challenges such as routing congestion, multi‑patterning‑aware placement, and CTS robustness. • Support integration of Genus and Innovus flows with signoff tools such as Tempus, Quantus, Voltus, and Pegasus. • Assist design service teams with ECO implementation, late‑stage timing closure, and tapeout readiness. We’re doing work that matters. Help us solve what others can’t.
