Lead the front-end digital design of high-performance connectivity devices for rack-scale AI infrastructure, guiding projects from requirements through to product shipment.

Обязанности

As Senior Manager/Manager, Digital Design, you will lead the front-end digital design of high-performance PCIe & CXL, UAL, ethernet devices that enable reliable connectivity in rack-scale AI infrastructure. You will guide projects from requirements and architecture through RTL development, verification, physical design, tape-out, and product shipment, ensuring that complex designs meet demanding performance, quality, and schedule objectives.
This is an opportunity to influence the development of purpose-built connectivity products at a hyper-growth company, establish scalable design practices, and help deliver silicon that advances the next generation of AI systems.
End-to-End Chip Development
Lead digital design execution from product requirements and architecture through RTL, verification, tape-out, and production shipment.
Drive delivery of at least two complex devices, maintaining clear milestones, technical decisions, risk tracking, and schedule accountability.
Partner with architecture and system teams to translate PCIe & CXL, UAL, ethernet requirements into robust, scalable digital implementations.
RTL Quality and Tape-Out Readiness
Set expectations for high-quality front-end RTL that enables efficient synthesis, timing closure, physical implementation, and smooth tape-out.
Establish and maintain design checklists, review gates, coding standards, and signoff criteria across the digital design lifecycle.
Resolve design, performance, power, area, clocking, and integration issues in partnership with verification, physical design, DFT, and validation teams.
Team and Cross-Functional Leadership
Lead, mentor, and develop a team of 6–8 digital design engineers, fostering technical excellence, accountability, and effective collaboration.
Influence cross-functional development decisions and align engineering teams around quality, risk reduction, and on-time execution.
Communicate technical status, tradeoffs, dependencies, and mitigation plans to engineering and program leadership.

Требования

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
Experience with PCIe & CXL, UAL, ethernet digital design, including protocol implementation, high-speed connectivity requirements, and physical-layer considerations.
3-5 years of experience in engineering management or technical leadership in digital IC or ASIC design.
Demonstrated ownership of chip design and development from requirements through tape-out and shipment for at least two devices of reasonable complexity.
Strong hands-on expertise developing front-end RTL and applying design practices that support predictable physical design progress and tape-out quality.
Ability to lead 6–8 engineers and influence execution across architecture, verification, physical design, DFT, firmware, validation, and operations.

Будет плюсом

Expertise in RTL quality methodologies, design reviews, lint, clock-domain and reset-domain considerations, synthesis, timing, and signoff readiness.
Experience defining or improving design checklists, development flows, quality gates, and cross-functional tape-out processes.
Building design blocks with large physical floorplan sizes is a plus
Track record of balancing performance, power, area, schedule, and risk across large SoC or ASIC programs.
Master’s or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
We know that creativity and innovation happen more often when teams include diverse ideas, backgrounds, and experiences, and we actively encourage everyone with relevant experience to apply, including people of color, LGBTQ+ and non-binary people, veterans, parents, and individuals with disabilities.
