Обязанности

We are seeking an experienced and hands-on Senior Digital Design Engineer to contribute to the design and implementation of complex digital systems and SoC components. This role offers the opportunity to own significant functional blocks from microarchitecture through RTL development, integration, and implementation while collaborating closely with verification, physical design, and DFT teams.
The ideal candidate is passionate about digital design, enjoys solving challenging technical problems, and thrives in a collaborative startup environment where individual contributions have a direct impact on product success.
Digital Design & RTL Development
Develop microarchitecture for assigned digital blocks and subsystems
Design, code, and maintain high-quality, synthesizable RTL
Evaluate design tradeoffs involving performance, power, area (PPA), and testability
Participate in design reviews and incorporate feedback into RTL implementation
Integration & Implementation
Integrate RTL into larger subsystem and SoC environments
Support lint, CDC/RDC, synthesis, and design quality checks
Collaborate with physical design teams to resolve implementation issues
Assist with timing constraint development and timing closure activities
Support logic equivalence checking (LEC) and implementation debugging
Participate in functional and timing ECO development when required
Design Quality
Ensure designs meet functional, timing, power, and DFT requirements
Support silicon bring-up, validation, and post-silicon debug activities
Analyze and resolve design issues throughout the development lifecycle
Cross-Functional Collaboration
Work closely with verification, DFT, physical implementation, firmware, and systems teams
Partner with architects and senior technical leaders to refine design requirements
Contribute to continuous improvement of design methodologies and development processes
Mentor junior engineers and share technical knowledge within the team (Staff level)

Synthesis and physical implementation considerations
Timing constraints (SDC) and timing closure
Experience with industry-standard EDA tools (Synopsys and/or Cadence)
Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills
Excellent communication and collaboration skills

Будет плюсом

Experience with DFT methodologies including scan insertion and MBIST
Experience with logic equivalence checking (LEC)
Familiarity with static timing analysis (STA)
Experience with UPF/CPF low-power methodologies
Exposure to advanced semiconductor process nodes
Experience supporting silicon bring-up and post-silicon debug
Formal verification experience is a plus
