Key Responsibilities

• Develop high-quality logic designs, including Register Transfer Level (RTL) coding and simulations, for innovative SoCs.
• Collaborate with architects to define and implement microarchitecture features of SoC blocks.
• Integrate and validate Intellectual Property (IP) blocks and subsystems into full-chip SoC designs.
• Perform quality checks and optimize designs to meet power, performance, area, and timing objectives, ensuring seamless production readiness.
• Review verification plans to confirm design features are thoroughly verified and address any RTL test failures with corrective measures.
• Employ secure development practices to mitigate security risks and maintain design integrity.
• Work with IP providers to integrate and validate IPs at the SoC level.
• Drive quality assurance compliance to enable efficient IP-SoC handoffs.

Qualifications

• Minimum Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field and 4+ years of relevant experience OR Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field and 3+ years of relevant experience OR PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field and 6+ months of experience.
• Experience: Expertise in RTL development, System Verilog, and SoC logic integration. Proficiency in microarchitecture definition, logic design, and simulation. Strong understanding of SoC design methodologies, including timing/power convergence and physical implementation.

Preferred Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with Python, Perl, or other scripting languages.
• Familiarity with advanced Front-End RTL Design tools such as Lint, CDC, Synthesis, and Static Timing Analysis (STA).
• Experience in validation development, pre-silicon testing, and DFT/DFD tools.
• Knowledge of industry-standard IPs, fabrics, and UVM-based verification.
