The Foundation “Italian Center for the Design of Semiconductor Integrated Circuits,” also known as the Chips-IT Foundation, is a nonprofit research and technology organization under the supervision of the Ministries of Industry.
The Foundation is Italy's first RTO (Research and Technology Organization) vertically focused on semiconductor research and stands as a center of excellence in frontier research on semiconductor design, as well as a pivotal center of the Italian semiconductor ecosystem and expertise.
Missions of the Foundation:
- Promote the design and development of integrated circuits
- Strengthen the system of professional training in the field of microelectronics
- Ensure the establishment of a network of universities, research centers and enterprises that fosters innovation and technology transfer in the field
The Chips-IT Foundation is expanding its microelectronics design team and is seeking a highly experienced Principal Physical Design Engineer to play a key technical leadership role in advanced System-on-Chic (SoC)
development programs. The position will contribute to cutting-edge R&D; activities, working closely with architecture, RTL, verification, and technology teams in a state-of-the-art microelectronics design environment. The Principal Physical Design Engineer will be responsible for leading and executing complex digital design flows for advanced semiconductor nodes. The role requires deep hands-on expertise across the full physical implementation lifecycle, from netlist handoff through place & route, signoff, and tape-out, while also providing technical mentorship and driving best practices within the design team.
The work can be carried out either in Pavia or in Bologna.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Lead and execute end-to-end physical design flows for complex SoCs and IP blocks, from RTL handoff to GDSII.
- Collaborate closely with RTL, verification, DFT, and architecture teams to resolve design and implementatio
