ASIC & FPGA Design Engineer

You will be the ASIC & FPGA Design Engineer for the ASIC/FPGA department at Lockheed  Martin  Missiles  and  Fire  Control. Our team delivers full custom analog and mixed signal ICs that power advanced defense systems, ranging from 130 nm down to 12 nm and including high voltage BCD processes.

What You Will Be Doing
As the ASIC & FPGA Design Engineer you will own the entire layout flow—from floorplan through tape out—working hand in hand with circuit designers to turn schematic intent into high performance, parasitic aware physical designs. You will operate in a dual tool environment (Synopsys Custom Compiler and Cadence Virtuoso) and drive physical verification closure across multiple foundries, directly supporting mission critical programs. Your responsibilities will include:

• Create floorplans, place and route analog blocks, optimizing area, matching, signal integrity and power delivery.
• Drive DRC, LVS and ERC verification to achieve full closure for each target process.
• Perform or support EMIR analysis to detect and remediate IR drop and electromigration concerns.
• Develop and maintain layout methodology, automation scripts and best practice guidelines for the department.
• Collaborate with circuit designers, verification engineers and system architects to ensure the layout reflects functional intent and performance targets.
• Manage tape out sign off packages, including documentation, design rule decks and release notes.
• Mentor junior layout engineers and promote a knowledge sharing culture.
