  • Work on projects that have a measurable impact on the business.
  • Engage in tasks related to Floorplanning, Place and Route, and Static Timing Analysis.
  • Collaborate with team members to develop and implement design methodologies.
  • Utilize programming skills in languages such as C++, Python, or TCL as needed.
