SoC Design Engineer

Role Overview

We are looking for a Mid-Level SoC Design Engineer with strong expertise in ARM architecture and hands-on experience working with Arm Corestone reference systems. The candidate will support subsystem design, integration, and optimization activities across AI’s next-generation SoCs.

You will work with architecture, verification, and physical design teams to bring complex ARM-based subsystems to production-quality readiness.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and integrate ARM-based subsystems derived from Arm Corestone reference packages into Azimuth AI SoCs.
• Implement and modify RTL for CPU subsystems, AMBA interconnects, memory controllers, and peripheral IP.
• Collaborate with architecture teams on feature definition, microarchitecture updates, and performance targets.
• Work closely with verification teams to debug functional issues and ensure high-quality coverage closure.
• Support synthesis, timing analysis, and physical design teams during SoC execution.
• Drive documentation, design reviews, and bring-up support for early silicon and emulation platforms.
• Contribute to methodology improvements for subsystem integration and design scalability.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
• 6-8 years of experience in SoC or subsystem design.
• Strong knowledge of ARM architecture, AMBA protocols (AXI, AHB, APB), and system-level integration.
• Hands-on experience with Arm Corestone-based packages or similar ARM reference designs.
• Proficiency in RTL design (SystemVerilog/Verilog) and SoC integration flows.
• Strong debugging skills across simulation, lint, CDC, and synthesis environments.
• Ability to collaborate in a fast-paced, cross-functional engineering environment.

Preferred Qualifications

• Knowledge of low-power design techniques and clock/power domain architecture
• B.Tech/M.Tech/BE/ME/M.Sc/M.S in Computer Science or Electronics/Electrical engineering
• Familiarity with FPGA prototyping, emulation platforms, or early silicon bring-up.
• Exposure to AI/ML accelerator-based SoCs is a plus.
