About The Role
Own floorplan‑to‑signoff physical design for one or more blocks of our AI accelerator silicon. Work with chip‑design and software teams driving DensityAI’s AI accelerator program from first silicon through scale‑out.
Responsibilities
- Own floorplan‑to‑signoff physical design for one or more blocks of our AI accelerator silicon.
- Use and develop AI‑assisted tool flows to accelerate physical design and signoff timelines.
Qualifications
- Exceptional abilities across the full physical design flow (synthesis, place & route, CTS, signoff).
- 8+ years of experience on very high performance designs at advanced technology nodes (7 nm or better).
- Hands‑on with industry‑standard PD tools (Cadence Innovus, Synopsys Fusion Compiler, or equivalent) and signoff (PrimeTime, Tempus, or equivalent).
- Demonstrated ability to work closely with architects, RTL designers, EDA vendors, and foundries to design and sign off complex chips.
- (Optional) Multi‑die packaging (CoWoS, 2.5D / 3D), thermal / IR / EM signoff, signal integrity, or DFT‑aware physical design.
Compensation
Final offers depend on level, location, and skills relevant to the role. Additional compensation: equity grant per company guidelines; medical / dental / vision; 401(k); standard PTO.
Full compensation packages are based on candidate experience and relevant certifications.
California pay range: $230,000 - $400,000 USD.
