- Experience in EDA tools and CAD tools.
- Familiarity with early-stage physical design flows, prior to place-and-route.
- Experience with software performance optimization, software capacity, and usability design.
- Exposure to or experience with forward-deployed AI in engineering workflows is a plus.
Position Requirements:
- Collaborate on key architecture and design decisions.
- Experiences in desktop applications handling large-scale datasets.
- Passionate to learn and explore new technologies and demonstrates good analysis and problem-solving skills.
- Self-driven in learning unfamiliar technologies through technical documentation, online communities, and internal knowledge sharing platforms.
- Ability to debug program with large legacy codebase.
- Strong background of object-oriented programming language, data structures and algorithms.
