Sr.Lead Silicon Design Engineer - FPGA Design

THE ROLE:

As a member of the Radeon Technologies Group, you will help bring to life cutting-edge designs. As a member of the front-end design/integration team, you will work closely with the architecture, IP design, Physical Design teams, and product engineers to achieve first pass silicon success.

THE PERSON:

A successful candidate will work with senior silicon design engineers. The candidate will be highly accurate and detail-oriented, possessing good communication and problem-solving skills.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Collaborate with architects, hardware engineers, and firmware engineers to understand the new features to be implemented and verified
• Build Requirements Spec, Design spec, test plan and test spec documentation, accounting for interactions with other features, the hardware, the firmware, and the software driver use cases
• Estimate the time required to implement the new features and write the new feature tests and any required changes to the test environment
• Debug test failures to determine the root cause; work with other RTL and firmware engineers to resolve design defects and correct any test issues
• Review functional and code coverage metrics modify or add tests or constrain random tests to meet the coverage requirements

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• Minimum of 15 years of design and development experience, preferably in a customer facing role
• Minimum of 10 years of experience in FPGA VHDL and/or Verilog design, AMD technology and tools, FPGA verification and test
• Experienced in analysing customer requirements, effort estimation and committing a schedule for delivery
• Interaction with Architects, other RTL engineers and SW engineers to define system level requirements and usecases
• Leading a group of RTL engineers to deliver on customer commitments
• Experienced with Verilog, System Verilog, and C programming
• Proficient in debugging firmware and RTL code using simulation tools
• Proficient in using UVM testbenches and working in Linux and Windows environments
• Developing UVM based verification frameworks and testbenches, processes and flows
• Experience in HW testing, including working with test equipment, logic and traffic analyzers, test generators, etc.
• Experience in designing complex systems involving one or more of the following technologies: PCIe, Ethernet, TCP/IP, Packet processing, USB, etc.
• Exposure to simulation profile, efficiency improvement, acceleration, HLS tools/process
• Good understanding and hands-on experience in the UVM concepts and SystemVerilog language
• Scripting language experience: Perl, Python, Makefile, and shell are preferred.

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

• Top class Bachelors or Masters degree in Electronic Engineering
• Track record of high academic achievement
