I've a digital physical design engineer so I literally make the data for the mask layers.

The industry is so segmented that I know very little about the manufacturing side so I learned quite a bit from this.

OPC? It'd be great to talk about your area, because I bet most don't know what you do, and maybe I can make it an entertaining read.

I don't deal with OPC. That's handled after me. I mainly do floorplanning, place and route, static timing analysis, and write tons of scripts in Tcl for our CAD flow. This is a quick summary.
