IC Design Engineer

The IC Design Engineer will be responsible for participating in IP level architectural definition, performing RTL design using Verilog HDL with an emphasis on performance and area, and implementing multi-power and low-power designs. This role involves analyzing and resolving Lint and Clock/Reset Domain crossing issues, collaborating with verification and physical design teams, and supporting system level validation, silicon bring-up, and debug efforts. A strong understanding of low power design and validation techniques is essential.

Must Have

• Participate in IP level architectural definition including micro-architecture definition
• Perform RTL design using Verilog HDL, with an emphasis on performance and area
• Implement multi-power and low-power designs
• Analyze and resolve Lint and Clock/Reset Domain crossing issues in the design
• Collaborate with verification team on test plan development, debugging, and coverage closure
• Collaborate with physical design team on constraint generation, timing closure analysis, formal verification, low power checks using UPF/CPF flows and ECO implementation
• Support system level validation efforts on FPGA/emulation
• Support silicon bring-up and debug efforts
• Strong Logic Design, RTL coding (Verilog HDL) and debugging skills
• Understanding of low power design and validation techniques including UPF/CPF
• Familiarity with design constraint generation, logic synthesis, timing closure analysis and Clock/Reset domain crossing checks
• Ability to assist in silicon and FPGA debug and bring-up

Good to Have

• Experience with ARM CPUs
• Experience with Memory controllers
• Experience with Peripherals such as I2C, SPI and UART
• Experience with Peripherals and interconnect protocols such as APB, AHB and AXI
