Principal Engineer - Chip Design Front End

As a Frontend Principal Engineer specializing in Semiconductor Chip Design, you will lead and coordinate the execution of the front-end stages of integrated circuit development. This role requires a strong technical background in digital design, verification, and project management skills. Additionally, you will oversee product support activities for both the Pre-production and Post-production stages, ensuring the successful initiation, development, and sustainment of semiconductor designs. You should have a minimum of 8+ years of experience in System Architecture for ARM based MCU product development, along with a minimum of 8+ years of experience in RTL Design, Coding, and RTL Integration. Strong design and debugging skills are essential for this role. Experience in handling Verification Teams, including Verification environment Development, Static and Dynamic Verification, and Test Management (UPF, GLN, Test Mode) is required. It is important to have experience with industry-standard EDA tools for LINT, CDC, SDC validation, and power analysis, preferably Synopsis EDA. Exposure to Backend and Analog processes is a plus. You should have the ability to collaborate effectively with backend teams (PD, DFT, and STA) to achieve timing and power closure. Experience in Product Support for both Pre and Post Production Stages, as well as support for RMA teams, is also necessary. Preferred skills and experience include a minimum of 1+ years of Project Management (Waterfall and Agile Hybrid Methodology) and a focus on Continuous Improvement. Knowledge of industry standards and best practices in semiconductor front-end design is advantageous. Qualifications for this role include a Masters in VLSI design from reputed universities like IIT/NIT with a background in Bachelors in Electronics and Communication, or a related field.,
