Principal Physical Verification Engineer
San Diego, CAPrincipal Physical Verification Engineer
About the Role:
We are seeking a Principal Physical Verification Engineering to be part of the Physical Design team delivering complex digital blocks and full-chip implementations in advanced process nodes. This role owns execution of all aspects of Physical Verification on advanced TSMC nodes. Candidates have completed multiple successful tapeouts. Candidates be able to drive methodology, quality, and predictable delivery across multiple programs. You will partner closely with analog design team and PD team to ensure designs meet aggressive manufacturability, and schedule goals.
Key Responsibilities:
Team & Project Leadership
• Lead full chip Physical Verification effort
• Own execution plans, schedules for full-chip
• Drive accountability for quality, milestones, and tapeout readiness.
• Conduct full chip and blocks PV checks
Physical Verification Ownership
• Ownership of full chip verification
• Work with internal analog team to ensure clean IP delivery
• Responsible for running and analyzing DRC/ERC/LUP/PERC results
• Experience with using either ICV or Calibre verification tools
• Understanding advance TSMC DRC rules
Cross-Functional Collaboration
• Partner with analog, block, chip top owners to ensure clean floorplan
• Provide early guidance on corner case requirements
• Influence floorplan constraints, hierarchy, and implementation strategy.
• Participate in tapeout readiness reviews.
Required Qualifications:
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.
• 5+ years of experience with full chip verifications
Proven hands-on experience with:
• Physical Verification tool (ICV/Calibre)
• Able to assemble a flow to support block/chip level PV
Strong expertise in:
• Floorplanning to avoid DRC/LVS issues
• Provide guidance to analog IP team to allow for clean integration
Preferred Qualifications:
