Join the leading chiplet startup! As an Eliyan Physical Design Director, you will be working at a fast-paced early-stage startup creating technologies that fuel tomorrow’s chiplet based systems with best-in-class power, area, manufacturability, and design flexibility. You will drive the development of cutting-edge ASICs from RTL to GDSII. You will work with a cross-functional team of industry experts that operate from first principles, innovate, and push the envelope to create high-volume and high-performance manufacturable products. In this role, you will oversee and optimize the entire design flow, including synthesis, place-and-route (PnR), static timing analysis (STA), electromigration/IR drop analysis (EM/IR), and physical verification (PV). You will also focus on developing and improving design flows and methodologies to ensure high-quality, on-time delivery. We offer a fun work environment with excellent benefits.  ONSITE M-F

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead and manage a team of physical design engineers, providing technical direction, mentorship, and performance feedback.
  • Define and execute the physical design strategy for multiple projects, ensuring alignment with company goals and timelines.
  • Develop, optimize, and maintain ASIC design flows for synthesis, PnR, EM/IR analysis, STA, and PV.
  • Drive continuous improvements in flow efficiency, automation, and quality metrics to meet power, performance, and area (PPA) targets.
  • Own the complete ASIC physical design process, from RTL handoff to GDSII delivery.
  • Collaborate with front-end design teams on RTL readiness and design-for-test (DFT) requirements.
  • Oversee logic synthesis, ensuring adherence to timing, power, and area constraints.
  • Drive floor planning, placement, clock tree synthesis (CTS), routing, and physical optimization in PnR.
  • Manage EM/IR analysis, timing closure through STA, and physical verification, including DRC, LVS, and metal fill.
  • Ensure successful tapeout with full sign-off criteria met, including reliability and manufacturability requirements.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams, including front-end design, DFT, package engineering, and manufacturing.
  • Present project updates and status reports to executive leadership.

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Expertise in multiple areas of physical design, timing, and signoff.
  • Strong scripting and automation skills.
  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.

Ideal Qualifications:

  • 12+ years of experience in ASIC physical design, with a proven track record of leading teams through successful tapeouts.
  • Deep expertise in the following areas: o RTL-to-GDSII flows o Synthesis, PnR, STA, EM/IR, and PV o Physical design for advanced process node (5nm and below) across two or more foundries.
  • Strong knowledge of EDA tools (Synopsys or Cadence) and scripting (Python, Perl).
  • Exceptional leadership, project management, and problem-solving skills.
