we are establishing a strategic R&D center in Israel to drive the development of complex semiconductor chips that solve the critical 'data bottlenecks' enabling the future of AI at scale. As we expand our presence in Israel, we're seeking a highly skilled Physical Design Engineer specializing in SoC EMIR to join our local engineering powerhouse from the ground up.
This is a unique opportunity to take on meaningful technical ownership in a new site, executing the backend power methodologies for chips that power the world's largest AI clusters. As an EMIR Engineer, you will be a core technical contributor ensuring the power robustness and long-term reliability of our high-performance connectivity silicon.
You will be responsible for SoC EMIR Analysis to ensure our products meet aggressive voltage drop and reliability targets in advanced FinFET process nodes, directly impacting the performance and yield of chips operating in the worlds most demanding AI and cloud environments.
Key Responsibilities
Take responsibility on IR drop analysis and signal/power electromigration (EM) of very complex chip
Collaborate closely with Physical Design team to insure a full power integrity
Be responsible on IR architecture for timing convergence
Partner with Package Design engineers to perform Chip-Package co-analysis (CPM)
Understand root-cause analysis for voltage drop violations and EM risks
Be responsible and go-to person for any IR related issues.
