RTL DESIGN ENGINEER 

 

THE ROLE

This role focuses on micro-architecture, RTL design and validation of high-speed interfaces such as Chip-to-Chip interconnect and highly configurable mufti-protocol PHYs. Be a part of the definition, design, and development of industry-leading interface IP

 

THE PERSON 

You have a passion for digital design, and verification in general.  You have strong analytical and problem-solving skills and are willing to learn and ready to take on problems. 

 

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Perform RTL design, including micro-architecture definition of the digital portions of the IP and drive for optimum power, performance, and area.
  • Work closely with functional verification team to meet coverage and quality standards. 
  • Setup CDC checks, analyze and resolve CDC issues in the design.
  • Work closely with methodology and PD teams to implement RTL design into GDSII.
  • Support IP integration into AMD SOCs/FPGAs
  • Work with IP lead, system architects, IC designers and physical designers to guarantee quality/timely deliverables meeting project’s schedule and technical requirements.
  • Support post-silicon product bring-up/debug and sign-off on test-plans and characterization reports.


Qualifications

  1. BS/MS EE and 5/7+ yrs. experience designing high-speed Physical layer IP  for high performance, low power FPGA/SOC.
  2. Proven track record of on-time IP delivery to SOC and successfully taking designs to production.
  3. Demonstrated proficiency in some or all the following areas:
    • SerDes/Memory/Chip-to-Chip interconnect PHY Designs.
    • Design of digital circuits and components using Verilog/System Verilog
    • Debugging in digital and mixed-signal simulation environment.
    • Power-optimization of digital designs. 
    • Multi-clock domain designs.
    • Design constraints for synthesis and static timing analysis.
    • Logic synthesis, timing closure, logical equivalence checking and ECOs.
    • Scripting languages such as Perl, Tcl, or Python. 
    • Collaboration with verification, DFT and physical design teams. 
    • DFT design and methodologies especially for Logic BIST.
  4. Excellent verbal, and interpersonal communication skills.
  5. Excellent technical communications. Ability to produce technical documentation.
  6. Able to operate with minimum direct supervision but also work cross-functionally, cross-geographies in a dynamic fast paced environment.
  7. Exhibit strong initiative and ownership of tasks and responsibilities. Seek help proactively as well as share and pass on knowledge.
