Work History

Physical Design Engineer

Google
Bangalore
12.2020 - Current
  • Responsible for RTL to GDS implementation for CPU partition as well as interconnect low power Fabric blocks
  • Targeted maximum frequency of operation with acceptable power and area numbers – best PPA tradeoff
  • Teamed up with architecture & RTL folks on minimizing power numbers for power hungry modules
  • Expertise in placement (congestion resolution) and CTS
  • Multiple preventives like module padding, partial density screen, ispatial, cloning , increasing NDR for EGR, uniform density, high congestion effort, staggered blockage, HEOC used for design convergence
  • Recognized with an award for my contribution to designing and implementing Google’s 1st generation 4.5Ghz FLL design
  • Driving constraints development across blocks, expertise in constraints development from scratch
  • Awarded spot/peer bonus several times within a duration of 4 years

Physical Design Engineer

Texas Instruments Inc.
07.2018 - Current
  • Responsible for executing SOC level Synthesis, Constraints development (functional/atpg modes),LEC & STA for multi clock domain design(upto 1.8GHz at 45nm )
  • Awarded with Silver recognition at TI for flawless execution on timing closure for one of the timing critical blocks
  • Responsible for Netlist to GDSII handoff for two subchips
  • Expertise in physical design and optimization e.g. placement, routing, cell sizing, buffering, logic restructuring, etc. to improve timing and power, along with a background in implementing them through ECOs.
  • Understanding of DFT logic ( scan shift and capture modes ) and hands-on experience in design closure.
  • Expertise in analyzing and converging crosstalk delay, noise glitch, and electrical/manufacturing rules in deep-sub micron processes.
  • Knowledge in process variation effect modeling and experience in design convergence taking into account variations.
  • Experience in critical path planning and crafting.
