Siemens EDA is a global technology leader in Electronic Design Automation products and systems. Our portfolio enables companies around the world to develop new and highly innovative electronic products faster and more cost-effectively. Our customers use our solutions to push the boundaries of technology and physics to deliver better products in the increasingly complex world of chip, board and system design.
Siemens EDA is seeking a senior level, self-starting, motivated, and high performing individual for an opportunity to serve as the package design lead in our 3D IC Solutions Engineering team in driving the development of comprehensive, end to end workflow solutions supporting the development of advanced 2.5 and 3D System in Package (SIP) designs. These multi-domain workflow solutions seamlessly integrate Siemens’ industry leading EDA and MCAD tools that facilitate the architectural planning, physical design/verification, muti-die based electrical, thermal, mechanical stress analysis and manufacturing test of advanced 2.5 and 3D System-in-Package (SIP) designs.
The primary responsibility for this position will be to drive the development of workflows to support the physical design planning, layout, and verification of advanced 3D IC designs. These workflows include package floor planning, package/chiplet level functional/ IO planning, interposer/substrate planning, layout, package level connectivity, Logical Equivalence Checking (LEC), package level 3D stack (DRC/LVS) verification and physical DRC/DFM verification of the package components (excluding the chiplet devices). Additional responsibilities include working with the 3D IC Solutions teams in integrating the other 3D IC workflows into the 3D IC Physical Design workflow.
Reference designs and test structures and/or customer designs will be used in the development, testing and validation of these workflows. The package design lead will also provide technical support and guidance to the sales, marketing design service organizations as required.
