We’re looking for Staff Digital Design Engineers! In this role, you will be responsible for ensuring the integrity of the circuitry within our chips, designed for a broad customer base including major telecom and automotive industries. These high-speed chips utilize cutting-edge technology, and you will guarantee that each design precisely aligns with the specific requirements of our diverse clientele.
Responsibilities:
- Define and develop the chip’s internal structure (microarchitecture).
- Create detailed specifications for the chip's design.
- Design and implement the chip's circuitry using energy-efficient RTL coding.
- Partner with the verification team to ensure the chip functions as intended.
- Collaborate with the physical design team to optimize chip layout.
- Manage project timelines and allocate tasks.
- Contribute to the development of future design processes across different teams.
- Support the initial testing and setup of the chip after manufacturing.
- Work closely with software engineers to align the chip with customer needs.
Education and Experience:
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field with a minimum of 7-10 years of relevant industry experience.
- Master's or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field with 5+ years of applicable experience is preferred.
Required Skills:
- Proficiency in SystemVerilog RTL coding for complex chip design.
- Comprehensive understanding of modern SoC architectures and interfaces (AXI, DDR, Ethernet, PCIe).
- Deep expertise in the microarchitecture of at least one of the following areas: neural processing units (NPUs), embedded processors, digital signal processors (DSPs), graphics, or general-purpose microprocessors.
- Proven track record in RTL design, synthesis, timing closure, formal verification, and simulation.
- Hands-on experience in high-speed design implementation and timing closure.
- Familiarity with chip development tools and methodologies.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience in designing high-performance, embedded processor-based SoCs.
- Knowledge of radio technologies, DSPs, or codecs.
- Proficiency in scripting languages (Python, Perl, Tcl) and UNIX environments.
