Job Details: Job Description: We are looking for a PERC Runset Development Engineer to develop and Validate PERC (Programmable Electrical Rule Checker) rule decks. The role involves working closely with PDK Team and foundry to implement PERC and ensure design compliance. Key Responsibilities: • Rule Development: Develop, validate, and maintain complex PERC rule decks to identify electrical reliability violations (e.g., ESD paths, current density, voltage stress, and floating gates). • Multi-Tool Integration: Develop and optimize verification flows across multiple EDA environments, ensuring consistency in results between Calibre PERC( preferred), Cadence Pegasus, and Synopsys tools. • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Device Physicists, Process Integration Engineers, and Analog Designers to translate reliability requirements into programmable rules. • Debug and Analysis: Provide expert-level support to design teams in debugging PERC violations, distinguishing between true reliability risks and tool-induced false positives. • Automation: Develop scripts (Python, SKILL, Tcl, or Perl) to automate the execution, reporting, and tracking of reliability checks across different design versions. • Documentation: Maintain detailed documentation of reliability check-sets and create guidelines for designers to implement correct-by-construction layouts. Qualifications: Required Skills: • Experience with PERC rule development (preferably using Calibre PERC). • Knowledge of ESD, latch-up and reliability verification. • Familiarity with SVRF, TVF, Python or Tcl scripting. • Strong debugging and problem-solving skills. • Knowledge of Linux and scripting (Python/Shell/Tcl) is desirable. • Experience with advanced technology nodes is an advantage. • Team player and be able to work with globa

Job Summary Reporting to the Memory Validation leadership team, the Senior Silicon DDR/HBM Validation Engineer will be responsible for the bring-up, validation, characterization and debug of advanced memory subsystems used in next-generation AI compute platforms.
