About Sateesh Kumar Goud

For over 16 years, I have been at the heart of complex SoC design, specializing in solving the most challenging timing closure problems at the top level and block level. My passion lies in not just achieving timing sign-off but in building robust, scalable methodologies that accelerate the entire design process and ensure first-pass silicon success.Current Status: Actively seeking new opportunities in SOC timing signoff. Currently holding valid H1B visa (transfer-ready) with all documentation prepared for immediate processing.My core expertise includes:· End-to-End SOC Timing Closure: Leading STA for full-chip and hierarchical level. A proven track record of contributing to 30+ successful tapeouts.· STA Methodology & Flow Development: Architecting and validating sign-off flows for STA, Power (PTPX), and Power-Aware STA (PGV Rail Analysis). I focus on creating efficient, automated regression frameworks.· Machine Learning in STA: Actively working on validating and integrating ML techniques into STA flows to improve prediction accuracy and reduce regression runtime.· Library & IP Ecosystem: Deep hands-on experience with library characterization (LIBGEN for STD Cells & MSIPs), IPQA validation, and spice simulation for voltage scaling analysis.· Accelerated timing closure and analysis workflows by leveraging GitHub Copilot to rapidly author and debug complex Tcl/Python scripts for PrimeTime.· Employed GitHub Copilot as a pair-programming assistant to efficiently generate Perl/Python parsers for timing reports, automate margin analysis, and create data visualization utilities.Satish,s••••••••@gmail.com,+91••••••••80
