We are part of the core switching group (CSG) at Broadcom developing industry leading network switches for enterprise and mega scale data centers . We are looking for experienced engineers to design cutting edge CoWos 2.5D , 3D interposer designs.   You will be working on designing interposers starting with custom routing for high speed interfaces, bump map design ,  routing and physical verification and tapeout to the foundries.  As part of your job you will be interacting with packaging , signal integrity and foundries to meet the packaging, SI and physical requirements of the interposers. Experience with interposer designs including CoWoS, 2.5D/3D integration using Cadence Innovus/Integrity or Synopsys 3DIC compiler is a must. Candidates should have a strong understanding of TSV design, micro-bumps, solder bumps, and interconnect technologies. Strong automation expertise related to bump pattern generation , routing structure development for high speed interfaces, and chip finishing are required to handle multiple Interposer designs in parallel. Basic understanding of routing structure impact on high-speed signal integrity (SI), power integrity (PI), and thermal analysis is required.
 

Technical Skills & Experience:

• Experience with interposer and advanced packaging design, including CoWoS, 2.5D/3D

• Proficiency with EDA tools such as Cadence (Innovus, Integrity), Synopsys (3DIC compiler), Mentor Graphics (Calibre) for layout generation, editing and verification

• Strong understanding of TSV design, micro-bumps, solder bumps, and interconnect technologies.

• Basic understanding of high-speed signal integrity (SI), power integrity (PI), and thermal analysis.

• Familiarity with semiconductor fabrication processes, particularly for silicon interposers.

• Strong scripting skills (Python, Tcl, SKILL) for automation and flow customization.

• Ability to work with cross-functional teams including IC design engineers, packaging egineers, and foundries

Additional Skills:

• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
