ADVANCE THE WORLD.\nAt AMD, we believe technology has the power to solve the world’s most important challenges. From advancing healthcare and scientific discovery to powering AI and the technologies people rely on every day, innovation at AMD is shaping the future.\nWhether you’re designing next-gen processors, enabling AI breakthroughs, or bringing leading edge products to market, every role at AMD contributes to something bigger - technology that moves the world forward. Join us and, together, we’ll advance your career.\n ROLE SUMMARY:\nOwn full-chip static timing analysis (STA) and timing closure for complex SoC designs, from\nearly design netlist through final signoff. Partner closely with PnR, synthesis/DFT, and CAD\nteams to drive timing convergence, methodology improvements, and flow automation across the\nbusiness unit.\nKEY RESPONSIBILITIES:\nTiming Closure & Signoff\n- Own full-chip timing closure across setup, hold, and DRV (transition/capacitance/noise) signoff\n- Drive multi-corner/multi-mode (MMMC) timing convergence across PVT corners and modes\n- Analyze and resolve SI/crosstalk, OCV/POCV, and clock-related (skew, jitter, uncertainty) impacts on timing\n- Perform root-cause analysis of timing violations and drive fixes through ECO, PnR trials etc.\n- Generate, validate, and hand off ECOs to PnR PD teams; verify legalization and post-ECO QoR\nClock Architecture\n- Guide clock tree build strategy across multiple methodologies (H-tree, MSCTS/multi-source CTS, clock mesh)\n- Define clock structure and skew/latency targets in partnership with clock architecture and PD teams\nCross-Team Collaboration\n- Work with PnR engineers to drive timing convergence at each implementation stage (place, CTS, route, ECO)\n- Provide SDC (constraint) analysis, quality review, and feedback to design and synthesis teams\n- Feed back repeater/floorplan/design guidance across SoC based on timing analysis\n- Analyze run data and provide actionable feedback to PD execution teams\n- Collaborate across business units, CAD, and central methodology teams to define and drive requirements\n- Interface with other PPA (or equivalent) teams internal to AMD on cross-cutting timing topics\nMethodology & Automation\n- Define and drive common STA methodology and signoff criteria across the business unit\n- Build automation to streamline design signoff checks, QoR tracking, and dashboard generation\n- Identify and adopt best practices from across AMD and industry to continuously improve flow/project best practices\n- Drive stage-by-stage improvements in competitiveness (PPA, turnaround time) of the AMD design flow\nCommunication\n- Organize and present complex technical timing data clearly and concisely to technical and management audiences\n- Document methodology, flows, and known issues for broader team consumption\nREQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:\n- BS/MS/PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field\n- Full chip timing experience preferred\nLocation:\n- Markham, ON\nBenefits offered are described: AMD benefits at a glance.\nAMD does not accept unsolicited resumes from headhunters, recruitment agencies, or fee-based recruitment services.
