About the role
This role involves static timing analysis and timing closure for automotive MCU Cores.
What you'll do
- Analyze and drive timing closure of automotive MCU Cores.
- Develop constraints for block-level and chip-level designs.
- Plan, set up, and manage STA runs, preferably at the chip level.
- Analyze STA reports, derive fixes, and collaborate with the PD team to implement timing ECOs.
- Work with the DFT team to understand DFT architecture and derive test mode constraints.
What you'll need
- Bachelor or Master’s degree in Electrical engineering.
- 3+ years’ experience in STA roles.
- Experience with constraints development of block-level and chip-level designs.
- Understanding of Margins, OCV, timing corners, Group and Path based analysis, Functional and Test Mode constraints merging.
- Experience with IO STA: Deriving constraints from chip/protocol interface specs and analysis.
- Understanding of ILM/ timing models for blocks and Crosstalk analysis.
- Hands-on experience with planning, setting up and managing STA runs for design.
- Hands-on experience with analysis of reports, deriving fixes and working with the PD team to drive timing ECOs.
- Working knowledge of timing signoff tools like Primetime or Tempus.
Skills: STA Engineer, timing closure, constraints development, timing ECOs, Primetime, Tempus

How we counted: 606 open Physical Design (Physical Design) roles from 78 employers tracked in the SemiconductorJobs index, counted 22 Sept 2026. Specialty figures count only roles carrying this exact specialty label, so an employer's related work in neighbouring specialties is not included there — it is counted in the wider Physical Implementation family row.
