The development and evaluation of EDA design software and systems for internal and external products is a critical function for organizations seeking to exceed customer expectations. Consulting services must be provided to clients regarding future upgrades and products while executing complex software designs that require significant re-architecture of crucial systems. Coordinating the implementation process and promoting innovation through state-of-the-art technology and knowledge into multiple product areas are also essential.

The role is responsible for ensuring the functional quality of the released product on all required platforms and systems while working independently on the most complex projects and demonstrating technical expertise and judgment. This person is going to be working with the foundry in the layout and routing of a chip. They will be working to sort out the placement of the boxes and wires on the actual chip and what delivers the most effective output in the most minimal space. They will need to know various constraints. For example, they would need to know that you can only fit so many wires between boxes placed this far apart; or that this box must have a rounded edge because the wire to be used is more brittle and doesnt need to be against a 90 degree angle. The tool they will be working on is called L-Edit. We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day.
