PERC Rule Deck Development Engineer

About This Role

• 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.
