Montage provides industry leading memory interface products for the demanding cloud computing and data center markets. Our robust product portfolio includes the critical components required by the memory modules, such as Registering Clock Driver (RCD), Data Buffer (DB), SPD EEPROM with Hub (SPD Hub), Temperature Sensor (TS) and Power Management IC (PMIC). Compliant with JEDEC specifications, these products are designed for a variety of memory modules, to enable high-speed, large-capacity, high-reliability and low-power memory solutions for high-performance computing.
Job Description:
We are looking for a Principal level Digital Design Engineer with over 15 years of experience who will help architect and develop RTL for various products with the area of focus being DDR server-class memory controllers. The ideal candidate will have RTL to GDSII flow experience using industry standard tools. In addition, knowledge of embedded micro-controllers such as RISCV and I2C/I3C protocols are advantageous. Your contribution would be to work with other global team members in designing both building blocks for the various products, as well as designing the entire new product for the company.
Key Responsibilities:
- Mentor and lead cross-functional teams to architect, develop and debug digital and mixed signal circuits;
- Design various logic & state machines in SystemVerilog/Verilog RTL;
- Develop and debug RTL, using industry-standard simulation and synthesis tools, along with LEC, CDC, Lint, DFT and STA tools;
- Provide PPA (Power, Performance, Area) and schedule estimates, as well as design specifications for the RTL;
- Coordinate with Verification/AMS design teams to ensure proper operation and functional and code coverage;
- Provide floor-planning and support integration of digital & analog circuits at top level;
- Work in cooperation with the methodology and CAD teams;
- Coordinate with other stakeholders in identifying needs and improvements.
Job Qualifications:
- BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or equivalent
- Must have 15 years of industry experience;
- Must have experience and deep understanding in the architecture definition of DDR4/5 server-class memory controllers;
- Understand how to obtain minimum latency and maximum bandwidth;
- Understand the tradeoff with command placement and scheduling, can efficiently manage activate and pre-charge commands;
- Familiar with ECC (SECDEC) and CRC;
- Knowledge of CHI/AXI interconnect and bus protocols;
- Knowledge of JEDEC memory standards;
- Experience in high speed and low power digital design in advanced deep sub-micron processes;
- Proficient with SystemVerilog/Verilog RTL, for both behavioral simulations and synthesis;
- Proficient with Design Compiler and PrimeTime;
- Programming/scripting know-how, e.g. Perl, Tcl and/or Python;
- Experience with Linux;
- Good communication skills, ability to take ownership;
- Experience with embedded micro-controllers is beneficial.
Montage offers a competitive compensation package including base salary, bonus, equity, matching 401(k), comprehensive medical and dental benefits, and a time-off program.
