Meta is hiring ASIC Frontend Implementation Engineers within our Infrastructure organization. We are looking for individuals with experience in front-end implementation from RTL to netlist, including RTL Lint, CDC analysis, timing constraints, synthesis to build efficient System on Chip (SoC) and IP for data center applications.
Responsibilities
Perform Flat and Hierarchical Clock Domain Crossing and work with the designers to analyze the complex clock domain crossings and sign off the CDC
• Perform Flat and Hierarchical Reset Domain crossing Checks. Understand the Reset-Architecture by working with Design and FW teams and develop reset groups and the corresponding reset sequence for RDC
• Perform RTL Lint and work with the Designers to create waivers
• Perform RTL DFT Analysis and improve the DFT coverage for Stuck-at faults
• Run Logic/Physical Synthesis using advanced optimization techniques and generate optimized Gate Level Netlist for Timing, Area, Power
• Developing Automation scripts and Methodology for all FE-tools including (Lint, CDC, RDC,)
• Work closely with the Design Engineers, DV Engineers, and Emulation Engineers in supporting them with the handoff tasks. Interact with Physical Design Engineers and provide them with timing/congestion feedback
Minimum Qualifications
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• Currently has a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, a relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• 6+ years of experience in static verification tools
• Experience with Lint, Clock Domain and Reset Domain crossing
• Experience with SOC CDC signoff
• Knowledge of SOC integration (clocking, reset, PLL, etc.)
• Knowledge of front-end ASIC flows
• Experience with RTL design using SystemVerilog or other HDL
• Experience with communicating across functional internal teams and vendors
Preferred Qualifications
• Experience with Netlist-CDC Analysis and improving MTBF
• Experience with SOC Design Integration and Front-End Implementation
• Scripting and programming experience using Perl/Python, TCL, and Make
• Experience with developing structural rule based checks for RTL & Netlist
• Experience with Design Compiler, Spyglass, PrimeTime, Formality, or equivalent tools
• Knowledge of Timing/physical libraries, SRAM Memories
