Principal Engineer - CAD (Physical Verification)

This position sits within Microchip’s global CAD organization and focuses on physical verification for both digital and analog chip designs. The engineer will create regression tests, develop and enhance foundry rule decks, debug verification results, and support engineers using tools such as Calibre, Pegasus, and Hercules. The work includes advanced checks involving DRC, LVS, PERC, ERC, ESD, voltage-aware verification, and design-for-manufacturing methodologies across a broad range of process nodes and PDKs. The role also provides technical support to worldwide design sites and contributes to more reliable, efficient verification flows. It suits an experienced physical verification or CAD engineer with strong EDA scripting, semiconductor layout knowledge, and the ability to collaborate across engineering functions.
