Senior PDK Design Automation Engineer_技術開發部(新竹廠)

Overview:
A senior PDK (Process Design Kit) Design Automation Engineer is a specialist in the semiconductor industry who develops, maintains, and automates IC design environments. This role ensures design teams can efficiently use EDA tools to create, verify, and manufacture chips aligned with specific foundry processes.

Key Responsibilities:
• PDK development and maintenance: Create, validate, and manage Process
Design Kits, including technology files, simulation models, and design rule
decks.
• Automating design workflows: Build scripts and tools to automate layout
generation, verification, and characterization.
• Develop parameterized device cells (p-cells): Create reusable, programmable
layout cells using scripting languages such as Cadence SKILL.
• Physical verification deck creation: Implement and maintain DRC/LVS rule decks
using tools like Cadence Pegasus, Siemens Calibre, or Synopsys ICV.
• EDA tool integration and support: Configure the EDA environment, manage tool
installations and licenses, and support design and layout engineers.
• Quality assurance: Develop and run automated regression tests to ensure PDK
and EDA environment accuracy.
• Collaboration: Work with process engineers, design teams, and EDA vendors
to resolve technical issues. Share experience and best practices with junior
design automation engineers.
• Documentation & Training: Prepare documentation and deliver training on
PDK usage and design flows.

Qualifications:
• PDK development: Experience in PDK development, including p-cells, design
rule decks (DRC/LVS), and extraction decks.
• EDA tools: Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools from vendors like
Cadence (e.g., Virtuoso), Siemens (e.g., Calibre), or Synopsys.
• Scripting and programming: Strong programming and scripting skills are
essential.
• Semiconductor technology: Solid understanding of semiconductor physics,
CMOS fundamentals, and IC fabrication.
• Problem-solving: Strong troubleshooting and debugging skills for resolving
complex CAD and design issues.
• Effective communication and documentation, with experience preparing
technical reports and presenting to cross-functional teams.
• Proven collaboration in fast-paced technology environments, including
international and multidisciplinary teams.
• Willingness to mentor junior PDK engineers.
