About the Role
Mobile CPUs push timing sign‑off to its limits — ultra‑wide voltage ranges, aggressive multi‑OPP targets, and sub‑2 nm parasitics demand creative margin methodology. As a Senior STA Engineer you will be the timing authority for one or more CPU blocks, partnering with PD, RTL, and DFT teams to deliver clean sign‑off on MediaTek's next‑generation SoCs.
What You'll Do
Own block‑level STA sign‑off: constraint development, multi‑scenario regression, and timing closure
Generate and drive timing and power ECOs through to resolution
Partner with RTL and DFT teams to define accurate functional and test‑mode constraints
Develop and champion advanced margining methodologies (AOCV/POCV) calibrated to silicon
Analyze clock tree quality; guide physical implementation toward scalable, convergence‑friendly CTS
Build custom sign‑off recipes for power recovery and timing closure in Tempus/PrimeTime
Deliver timing models (ETM, Hyperscale) and SDC/timing budgets for SoC integration
Participate in MediaTek's worldwide STA forum; help define next‑generation margin methodologies
Main Requirements and Qualifications
5+ years of STA experience on high‑performance CPU designs (≥ 2 GHz)
Expert‑level understanding of multi‑scenario STA, SDC constraints, and timing exceptions
Deep knowledge of OCV/AOCV/POCV margining and silicon correlation
Multi‑OPP closure experience: resolving setup/hold conflicts across a wide voltage‑frequency range
Familiarity with clock tree timing analysis and co‑optimization with physical design
Experience developing custom timing closure and power‑recovery recipes in sign‑off tools
Low‑power design knowledge including CPF/UPF multi‑voltage island methodology
Proficiency with Cadence Tempus and/or Synopsys PrimeTime
Strong scripting skills in Tcl, Python, or Perl
Advanced‑node tape‑out experience (7 nm or below)
Nice to Have
ARM Cortex‑A or custom CPU STA experience
Familiarity with physical design flows (synthesis, place‑and‑route, physical verification)
IR drop analysis (static and dynamic)
Salary Range
$152,400 - $217,200 annually. Employee may be eligible for performance bonus, short and long‑term incentive programs. Actual total compensation will be dependent upon the individual's skills, experience and qualifications.
Benefits
MediaTek provides a variety of benefits including comprehensive health insurance coverage, life and disability insurance, savings plan, company‑paid holidays, paid time off (PTO), parental leave, 401(k) and more.
Equal Opportunity Employer
MediaTek is an Equal Opportunity Employer that is committed to inclusion and diversity to all, regardless of age, ancestry, color, disability (mental and physical), exercising the right to family care and medical leave, gender, gender expression, gender identity, genetic information, marital status, medical condition, military or veteran status, national origin, political affiliation, race, religious creed, sex (includes pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding and related medical conditions), and sexual orientation.
