RTL Design Engineer

RTL Design Engineer (ASIC)

Location: Chennai, Tamil Nadu

Experience: 1 to 3 Years

Job Role:

• Design and implement RTL for wireless modem IPs and SoC subsystems using Verilog/SystemVerilog.
• Develop micro-architecture specifications and deliver high-quality, synthesizable RTL.
• Integrate complex subsystems into SoC environments and support design convergence.
• Collaborate with system architects, verification, SoC, software, DFT, and physical design teams.
• Apply low-power design techniques including clock gating, power gating, and multi-voltage domains.
• Analyze and optimize for performance, area, and power.
• Ensure protocol compliance and performance of interconnects, buses (AXI, AHB, APB), and bridges.
• Conduct CDC and lint checks using tools like Spyglass and resolve waivers.
• Participate in post-silicon debug and bring-up activities.

Job Qualification

• 1–3 years of experience in digital front-end ASIC/RTL design.
• Strong expertise in Verilog/SystemVerilog RTL coding and micro-architecture development.
• Familiarity with wireless protocols such as IEEE 802.11 (a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be), LTE, or 5G NR is highly desirable.
• Solid understanding of bus protocols (AXI, AHB, APB) and bridge logic.
• Experience with wireless modem IPs or similar high-performance digital blocks is a plus.
• Familiarity with low-power design methodologies and CDC handling.
• Hands-on experience with tools like Spyglass, 0-in, Design Compiler, PrimeTime, and simulation environments.
• Exposure to post-silicon debug and SoC integration challenges.
• Strong documentation and communication skills.
• Self-motivated with a collaborative mindset and ability to work with minimal supervision.
