Digital Design Engineer

Role: Senior Design Engineer (RTL)

We are looking for an experienced  Senior RTL Design Engineer  to join our team in developing cutting-edge automotive microcontroller solutions. The ideal candidate will have deep understanding of RTL design and SoC integration, particularly in the context of ARM-based architectures, and a proven ability to collaborate across multiple engineering disciplines to deliver high-quality solutions for complex systems.

Key Responsibilities:

•Define and develop  microarchitecture  for various subsystems, including CPU subsystems, low-power subsystems, and Reset & Clock Management modules.

•Drive  SoC integration  for automotive MCUs, ensuring efficient, scalable designs.

•Collaborate with  IP teams, Systems, and Architecture teams  to derive requirements, co-develop microarchitecture, and align on design goals for IPs, subsystems, and SoC.

•Work closely with  cross-functional teams  such as Design Verification (DV), Design for Testability (DFT), Emulation, and Physical Implementation to ensure quality deliverables.

•Lead debug sessions, participate in design reviews, and ensure design robustness and compliance with industry standards.

Qualifications

Qualifications and Skills Required:

• Education:  Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering (EE), Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE), Computer Science (CS), or a related specialization.

• Experience:  Minimum 8+ years of hands-on experience in RTL development for IPs and SoCs.

Technical Expertise:

•Proficient in SoC integration with ARM processors and ARM bus architectures.

•Strong understanding of SoC  reset and clocking architectures .

•Experience with  standard interfaces  like SPI/QSPI, I2C, Debug/Trace, CAN, and others.

•Expertise in industry-standard front-end (FE) tools and flows, including Lint, CDC, LEC, and power estimation tools such as Jasper Gold, Conformal, Joules, etc.

•Knowledge of  DFT concepts  and ability to design for testability.

•Strong understanding of  constraints, timing analysis, and optimization techniques .

•Experience with industry-standard simulators (e.g., Incisive) and formal verification tools.

 

Soft Skills:

•Exceptional problem-solving and debugging skills.

•Strong written and verbal communication skills for effective collaboration and reporting.

•Ability to work in a team-oriented environment and guide junior engineers when needed.

 

Preferred Qualifications:

•Experience in automotive-grade SoC designs and compliance with ISO 26262 (Functional Safety) standards.

•Familiarity with power management techniques and low-power design principles.

•Knowledge of scripting languages such as Python, Perl, or TCL for automation.
