- Hands-on experience in logic synthesis and equivalence checking.
- Expertise in physical design and optimization techniques.
- Proficiency in programming and scripting languages such as Perl, Tcl, Make, and Python.
Responsibilities
- Drive physical design and timing of NVIDIA CPUs, GPUs, LPUs, and SoCs at various levels.
- Assist in frontend and backend implementation from RTL to gds2, including synthesis and timing convergence.
- Collaborate with multiple teams in a cross-functional environment.
- Apply knowledge to improve convergence flows with the Methodology Team.
