Job
Description
Job Area: Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Hardware Applications Engineering General Summary: This position is for RTL designer role in DSP processor team. The position involves in-depth understanding of the ASIC design flow from RTL to GDS2 and the challenges posed by advanced technologies. The successful candidate will possess detailed understanding of RTL design, synthesis, static timing analysis, formal verification, PLDRC, clock domain crossing, and low power techniques. Knowledge and experience of microprocessor integration is a definite advantage. Skills/Experience Must have 3 to 15 years of practical experience with details of RTL development (VHDL and/or Verilog) including:functional and structural RTL design, design partitioning,simulation and regression, collaboration with design verification team. Must have good familiarity with latest RTL languages and tools, includingsimulation systems (e.g. Modelsim, VCS), synthesis tools (e.g. Design Compile), static timing tools (e.g. Prime Time), Linting tools, CDC tools, UPF, code coverage, System Verilog Assertion, etc. Experience with the following area is highly desirable Strong processor architecture knowledge Microarchitecture implementation Microprocessor integration Low power design Responsibilities Develop RTL for multiple logic blocks of a DSP core Run various frontend tools to check for linting, clock domain crossing, synthesis, etc. Work with physical design team on design constrain and timing closure Work with power team on power optimization Work with verification team to collaborate on test plan, coverage plan, and coverage closure Minimum Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field and 3+ years of Hardware Applications Engineering or Hardware Design experience or related work experience. OR Master's degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of Hardware Applications Engineering or Hardware Design experience or related work experience. OR PhD in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field and 1+ year of Hardware Applications Engineering or Hardware Design experience or related work experience.
