About the Role:

We are seeking an experienced Physical Design Sr Manager to lead our Physical Design team and Design for Test (DFT) team in the development of state-of-the-art integrated circuits.

The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of physical design methodologies, excellent leadership skills, and a proven track record of successfully managing complex projects from conception to tape-out.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Manage and mentor a team of physical design engineers, fostering a collaborative and innovative work environment.
  • Define team goals, assign tasks, and ensure project milestones are met on time and within budget.
  • Provide technical guidance and support to the team, addressing any challenges or roadblocks.
  • Oversee the entire physical design process, including physical synthesis, floorplanning, placement, clock tree synthesis (CTS), routing, and sign-off verification.
  • Ensure designs meet all performance, power, and area (PPA) targets as well as timing, signal integrity, and manufacturing constraints.
  • Collaborate with RTL designers, verification teams, and other engineering disciplines to optimize designs and resolve issues.
  • Integrate DFT strategies into the physical design flow to enhance testability and fault coverage.
  • Ensure that DFT features such as scan insertion, Built-in Self-Test, and boundary scan are implemented and verified.
  • Collaborate with test engineering teams to ensure that DFT methodologies align with overall test strategies and manufacturing requirements.
  • Develop and manage project schedules, resource allocation, and risk mitigation strategies.
  • Track project progress, identify potential issues, and implement corrective actions to ensure timely project delivery.
  • Communicate project status, challenges, and successes to senior management and stakeholders.

Requirements:

  • 10+ years of experience in physical design with at least 3 years in a leadership or management position.
  • Proven track record of leading physical design teams through successful tape-outs.
  • Experience with advanced technology nodes (e.g., 3nm or below) is highly required.
  • Experience with low-power design techniques and methodologies.
  • Deep knowledge of physical design tools (e.g., Cadence, Synopsys, Siemens) and methodologies.
  • Strong understanding of the entire physical design process.
  • Strong knowledge of DFT methodologies including scan insertion, BIST, boundary scan, and ATPG (Automatic test pattern generation).
  • Familiar with post-silicon validation and tape-out process.
  • Experience managing multi-site projects and working with global teams.

What We Offer:

Juniper Networks offers a competitive salary range of $179,200.00 to $257,600.00 per year, as well as a comprehensive benefits package, including medical benefits, 401(k) eligibility, vacation, sick time, and parental leave.
