Senior Physical Design Engineer

Bitdeer is a world-leading technology company for Bitcoin mining and AI cloud.

We are looking for a Senior Physical Design Engineer to execute physical implementation of high-speed PCIe IP and sub-system for AI chip
You will own the full physical design flow from netlist to GDSII, working closely with circuit design, DFT, and verification teams to deliver silicon-proven, high-performance designs on leading-edge process nodes

• Own end-to-end physical design flow: floorplanning, placement, CTS, routing, STA, physical verification and signoff for PCIe controller and PHY blocks.
• Perform timing closure for high-speed PCIe Gen 4/5/6 interfaces across PVT corners.
• Drive power integrity analysis including IR drop and electromigration (EM) across the power delivery network.
• Achieve physical verification closure including DRC, LVS, and ERC signoff using Calibre tool.
• Work with RTL and synthesis teams to provide feedback on logic restructuring for timing and area improvement.
• Contribute to internal PD methodology, scripts, and flow automation using Perl and Tcl.
• Support tapeout activities including final GDS merge, fill insertion, and signoff checks.

• B.S. / M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
• 5+ years of hands-on physical design experience in advanced TSMC process nodes (N6 and below preferred).
• Strong knowledge of PCIe protocol and high-speed interface physical design constraints.
• Strong hands-on experience with CTS for high-speed designs: CTS strategies, skew balancing, useful skew and multi-corner CTS closure.
• Hands-on proficiency with industry-standard PnR and timing signoff tools ( Cadence Innovus / Synopsys Primetime / Tweaker ).
• Experience in resolving chip level DRC / LVS / EMIR issues for advance nodes.
• Experience in multi-die packaging (WoW, 2.5D / 3D), Thermal / IR / EM signoff, signal integrity, or DFT-aware physical design is plus.
• Proficiency using Python, Perl, Tcl, Make scripting is plus.
• Tape out experience required.

• A culture that values authenticity and diversity of thoughts and backgrounds;
• An inclusive and respectable environment with open workspaces and exciting start-up spirit;
• Fast-growing company with the chance to network with industrial pioneers and enthusiasts;
• Ability to contribute directly and make an impact on the future of the digital asset industry;
• Involvement in new projects, developing processes/systems;
• Personal accountability, autonomy, fast growth, and learning opportunities;
• Attractive welfare benefits and developmental opportunities such as training and mentoring.
