About the role
The Wireless Solutions Group is seeking an experienced Design Engineer responsible for the design of System-on-Chip (SOC) solutions for wireless applications. The role focuses on high-performance, low-power wireless SoC and attach solutions.
What you'll do
- Implement SOC designs according to micro-architecture specifications and design documentation, performing RTL coding, synthesis, timing analysis, and executing the SOC design flow. - Contribute to SOC design from concept to tape-out and participate in design reviews to ensure compliance with standards. - Collaborate with verification teams on test plans and work with physical design teams for integration and implementation. - Support validation teams in qualifying silicon ICs and debugging potential issues. - Develop and optimize low-power design techniques and power estimation methodologies. - Interface with external vendors and IP sources to resolve technical problems across international teams.
What you'll need
- Bachelor's degree in computer engineering, electrical engineering, or related field with a minimum of 12+ years of experience in digital SOC design, focused on low-power design. - Proficiency in RTL design (Verilog/System Verilog), low-power design, synthesis, timing constraint (SDC), and timing analysis. - Experience with ASIC design flows including LINT, Formal, CDC/RDC, power estimations, MBIST/DFT concepts, and low-power design techniques. - Understanding of SOC architecture (ARM/MIPS), bus protocols (AMBA, AXI, etc.), and peripheral IPs (USB, Ethernet, I2C, SPI, etc). - Experience with Bus Matrix design. - Experience with scripting languages such as TCL, Perl, and Python.
Nice to have
- Master’s degree in computer engineering, electrical engineering, or related field. - Knowledge of Bluetooth/BLE/Wi-Fi communication theory and standard specifications. - Knowledge of security features and principles of functional safety–compliant design. - Experience with verification methodologies (UVM/OVM). - Experience with validation methodologies, including debugging on FPGA and silicon IC boards.
