What You'll Be Doing:
Own and maintain Continuous Integration pipelines. Monitor, complete, and fix daily and nightly CI flows in front-end build areas. These include Lint, Synthesis, Equivalence Checking and Simulation.
Automate EDA Flows: Build, develop, and maintain robust automation scripts using Python, Tcl scripting, and Shell to integrate EDA tools (Synopsys, Cadence) into automated build pipelines.
Manage Perforce Integration: Maintain multi-IP branch/stream strategies, manage workspace specs, complete hardware build drops, and handle release labels/tags in Perforce (Helix Core).
Support Engineering Teams: Act as the primary point of contact for RTL and verification engineers to debug flow crashes, bottlenecks, environment setups, and CI failure reports.
Enforce Quality Gates: Implement automated check-in and change list triggers to run sanity checks, linting, and style enforcement before code is committed to main streams.
Optimize Infrastructure: Monitor compute farm resources (LSF) and storage usage to reduce pipeline runtime and improve overall execution efficiency.
What We Need to See:
Experience: 3+ years of hands-on industry experience in ASIC/SoC front-end integration, CAD, or EDA flow automation.
Education: Bachelors degree or Masters degree or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
Perforce Expertise: Strong hands-on experience managing Perforce (P4 / Helix Core) streams, workspace specs, changelists, and labels within an active hardware build environment.
Scripting & Programming: Demonstrated proficiency in Python, Tcl, and Bash/Shell scripting for flow development and task automation.
EDA Tools Familiarity: Practical experience with front-end ASIC tools (e.g., SpyGlass, Build Compiler, or Xcelium).
A standout colleague who possesses great interpersonal skills.
Problem Solving: Strong diagnostic and fixing skills with the ability to resolve front-end build and flow issues under project deadlines.
Ways to Stand Out from the Crowd:
P4 Automation & Triggers: Experience writing custom P4 Python scripts or Perforce pre-submit/post-submit triggers to enforce check-in policies automatically.
Dashboards development: Hands-on proven experience building automated regression reporting tools, Slack/Teams notifications, or dashboards to track pipeline health and coverage.
Verification experience is plus.
