Senior ASIC Design Engineer

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "Meet the Team" description, "Your Impact" bullet list, "Minimum Qualifications", "Preferred Qualifications", "Why Cisco?" (maybe about company), salary info (Pay), benefits (Benefits), schedule? There's mention of paid time off etc. That's benefits and schedule? The schedule is not explicit; they talk about vacation, holidays, sick time. That's benefits. Pay: salary ranges given. So we need sections: About the role (maybe combine Meet the Team and Your Impact?), Responsibilities (Your Impact), Requirements (Minimum Qualifications + Preferred Qualifications?), Qualifications maybe separate? But we should follow headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections with real content. We have: - About the role: Could be "Meet the Team" paragraph describing team and mission. That's about the role context. - Responsibilities: "Your Impact" bullet list. - Requirements: Minimum Qualifications (maybe combine with Preferred? but we can separate Minimum Qualifications under Requirements, Preferred Qualifications under Skills? Or Qualifications? The instruction: Use headings as given. We can put Minimum Qualifications under Requirements, Preferred Qualifications under Skills or Qualifications. Let's decide: Requirements = Minimum Qualifications. Qualifications = Preferred Qualifications. Skills maybe not needed if we already have Preferred Qualifications includes skills. Could omit Skills if no distinct content. - Benefits: description of benefits (medical, dental, vision, 401k, parental leave, disability, life insurance, RSU, paid time off details). That's benefits. - Pay: salary range info. - Schedule: Not explicitly given; they mention vacation accrual etc but that's benefits, not schedule. No explicit work hours or shift. So we should not create Schedule section. Thus output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. We need to use

for each section heading. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate like application window, etc. Also remove "Message to applicants applying to work in the U.S. and/or Canada:"? That's part of Pay section? It includes salary range and details. We need to keep salary details but can drop the introductory sentence? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The "Message to applicants..." is not exactly boilerplate but it's part of compensation details. Might keep it as part of Pay section prose. However we need to preserve all substantive information; the message includes details about salary determination, location-based ranges, etc. That's substantive. So we should keep it. We also need to remove duplicated lines. There's some duplication? Not seeing. We need to format lists. Let's extract content. About the role: "Meet the Team The Common Hardware Group (CHG) creates innovative hardware platforms central to the AI era, powering Cisco’s core Switching, Routing, and Wireless products for organizations globally. Our innovations in silicon, optics, and hardware platforms—like Silicon One—are shaping the technology industry. We're a global team of creative experts, bringing our unique backgrounds and bold ideas to push boundaries and help each other grow. Because full product development—from design to qualification to production—is within our team, we’re able to think differently, experiment more, and work quickly. Join us to power the future of the digital world." We'll put that in

  . Responsibilities: "Your Impact Author design specifications and participate in micro-architecture specification reviews.Implement Verilog RTL to meet timing, performance, and power requirementsDevelop and analyze functional coverage.Collaborate with the verification team to address design corner cases and close coverage.Work closely with physical design team to close design timing and place-and-route issues.Perform diagnostic and post silicon validation tests in the lab." Note there are no spaces between sentences; we need to split into list items. Each sentence seems to be a responsibility. We'll split by periods (but note there is no space after period). We'll create

  • items. List: - Author design specifications and participate in micro-architecture specification reviews. - Implement Verilog RTL to meet timing, performance, and power requirements - Develop and analyze functional coverage - Collaborate with the verification team to address design corner cases and close coverage - Work closely with physical design team to close design timing and place-and-route issues - Perform diagnostic and post silicon validation tests in the lab Make sure each ends with period. Requirements (Minimum Qualifications): "Minimum Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Electrical or Computer engineering and 7+ years of ASIC Design related experience, or Master’s degree in Electrical or Computer engineering and 4+ years of ASIC Design related experience, or PhD in Electrical or Computer engineering + 1 year of ASIC Design related experienceExperience with Verilog/System Verilog" We need to split into list items? It's a combination of education/experience options plus experience with Verilog/System Verilog. Could be two items: the education/experience options (maybe as one item) and Verilog experience. But better to list each bullet: maybe three options as separate? The instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can make a list where each option is a separate
    • . Also include Verilog experience as separate. Thus: - Bachelor’s degree in Electrical or Computer engineering and 7+ years of ASIC Design related experience - Master’s degree in Electrical or Computer engineering and 4+ years of ASIC Design related experience - PhD in Electrical or Computer engineering + 1 year of ASIC Design related experience - Experience with Verilog/System Verilog Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications): "Preferred Qualifications At least one full ASIC tapeout (advanced nodes preferred).Strong RTL skills with good command of timing closure, power, clock gating, and the full ASIC design flow.Solid debug and scripting skills.Good written and verbal communication skills." Split into list items: - At least one full ASIC tapeout (advanced nodes preferred) - Strong RTL skills with good command of timing closure, power, clock gating, and the full ASIC design flow - Solid debug and scripting skills - Good written and verbal communication skills Benefits: The paragraph after "Why Cisco?" includes benefits description. Actually "Why Cisco?" is about company, not benefits. Then later: "Message to applicants applying to work in the U.S. and/or Canada: The starting salary range posted for this position is $167,700.00 to $245,200.00 and reflects the projected salary range for new hires in this position in U.S. and/or Canada locations, not including incentive compensation*, equity, or benefits.

Benefits includes medical, dental, vision, 401k, parental leave, disability, life insurance, RSU, paid time off details (holidays, birthday, wellness, vacation, sick, volunteer). Also annual bonuses etc. That's benefits. Pay includes salary range info: starting salary range $167,700 to $245,200 (US/Canada), plus location-specific ranges (NYC Metro, Non-Metro NY & WA). Also note about quota-based sales roles etc. That's pay details. We need to avoid duplication: The benefits paragraph includes a lot of text; we should keep it as prose or list? Benefits are a list of items; we can make a
      • list for benefits. Let's extract benefits items: - medical, dental and vision insurance - a 401(k) plan with a Cisco matching contribution - paid parental leave - short and long-term disability coverage - basic life insurance - grants of Cisco restricted stock units (vesting after continued employment) - paid time away: * 10 paid holidays per full calendar year, plus 1 floating holiday for non-exempt employees * 1 paid day off for employee’s birthday * paid year-end holiday shutdown * 4 paid days off for personal wellness determined by Cisco * Non-exempt employees receive 16 days of paid vacation time per full calendar year, accrued at rate of 4.92 hours per pay period for full-time employees * Exempt employees participate in Cisco’s flexible vacation time off program, which has no defined limit on how much vacation time eligible employees may use (subject to availability and some business limitations)
