We are seeking talented and motivated individuals to tackle challenging engineering problems in advanced digital IC design.
As a Principal Digital ASIC Designer, you will be responsible for designing high-performance digital ASICs in advanced technologies.
You will be responsible for implementing designs from RTL through synthesis.
You will work in multi-disciplinary teams with opportunities to learn, grow and contribute to a variety of projects in different application areas.
Job Description:
Duties/Responsibilities
• Design and simulate circuits at transistor-level to implement architecture and requirement specifications
• Contribute to system-level design
• Optimize hardware designs for performance, power, and cost
• Evaluate the hardware feasibility of complex algorithms and requirements
• Independently contribute to complex chip architectures and designs
• Independently drive solutions to complex problems - develop requirements, propose ways forward when customer requirements are unclear or incomplete, and adapt appropriately to changes in requirements
• Contribute to business development and proposal activities
• Develop, document, and teach best practices to less experienced engineers
• Perform or guide physical layout, including floor-planning, and simulate circuits using extracted parasitics, contribute to design-for-test development.
• Perform other duties as assigned
Skills/Abilities
• Proficiency in integrated circuit design
• Understanding of integrated circuits, semiconductors, and general computer architecture
• Ability to write detailed design specifications
• Ability to lead multi-disciplinary technical teams
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Excellent mathematical skills
• Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail
• Excellent time management skills with the proven ability to meet deadlines
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Ability to prioritize tasks
• Demonstrate strong organization, planning, and time management skills to achieve program goals
Education
Requires a bachelor's degree in Engineering, or related field. Masters degree preferred.
Experience
Requires 7-10 years of experience with a bachelor's degree, or 5-10 years of experience with a master's degree in ASIC Hardware Engineering or related.
Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience with low power circuit design
• Experience with CMOS advanced nodes below 32nm
• Experience with radiation-hardened electronics
Additional Job Description:
• Applicants should possess solid skills in front-end digital systems design with experience in design flows from Cadence or Synopsys.
• Be fluent in System Verilog, Verilog or VHDL and familiar with LINT, simulation and synthesis.
• Familiarity with architectures for secure systems design, e.g., cryptographic encoders / decoders or tagged processor architectures is a plus.
• Demonstrated experience with successful tape-outs at advanced nodes is desired. Experience leading and managing design teams is also desired.
Applicants selected for this position will be required to obtain and maintain a U.S. Security Clearance.
