Senior RTL Design Engineer

Mueon Hillsboro, Oregon, United States Full-time 3 months ago
Digital Design & SoC Architecture

Originally posted 6 August 2026 by the employer.

About the role

As an RTL Design Engineer at Mueon, you will develop digital logic for AI computing platforms. Working closely with architecture, verification, physical design, and DFT teams, you will implement synthesizable RTL meeting performance, power, and area requirements.

What you'll do

  • Design and develop synthesizable RTL using Verilog and SystemVerilog for digital IP blocks and SoC subsystems.
  • Translate architectural and microarchitecture specifications into efficient, low-power hardware implementations.
  • Collaborate with verification engineers to develop verification plans, review functional coverage, and resolve design issues.
  • Drive RTL quality through lint, clock domain crossing (CDC), and reset domain crossing (RDC) analysis and resolution.
  • Partner with synthesis and physical design teams to optimize designs for timing, power, area, and manufacturability.
  • Support post-silicon bring-up, debug, and root-cause analysis as products transition into hardware.

What you'll need

  • B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent experience.
  • 3-5 years of experience developing RTL for ASIC or FPGA designs.
  • Proficiency with Verilog and/or SystemVerilog for RTL development.
  • Solid understanding of digital logic design, synchronous design techniques, and computer architecture.
  • Experience with simulation tools such as Synopsys VCS, Cadence Xcelium, Siemens Questa, or equivalent.
  • Familiarity with lint, CDC, and RDC verification methodologies.
  • Working knowledge of synthesis, static timing analysis, DFT, and physical implementation flows.
  • Experience with scripting languages such as Python, Tcl, or Perl.

Nice to have

  • Experience with industry-standard bus protocols including AXI, AHB, APB, PCIe, CXL, or UCIe.
  • Experience developing low-power RTL using clock gating, power gating, multi-voltage design techniques, or UPF.
  • Familiarity with formal verification, equivalence checking, or assertion-based verification methodologies.
  • Experience designing high-speed interfaces including DDR, HBM, Ethernet, SerDes, or other high-performance interconnects.
  • Experience with Git, IP-XACT, or reusable IP development methodologies.
  • Experience developing AI accelerators, CPUs, GPUs, or networking ASICs.
