Job Title

Engineer II - Design

Role Summary

Engineer II on the ASIC/embedded controller design team. Develop processor-based SoC/ASIC features for tablets, notebooks and embedded systems, focusing on RTL design through pre-silicon validation.

Work within a cross-functional design team in Hauppauge, NY; collaborate with verification, firmware and system engineers to deliver silicon-ready designs.

Experience Level

Mid-level (Level - Mid-Career).

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include:

• RTL design and implementation for processor-based SoCs/embedded controllers.
• Run and analyze simulations; support synthesis and timing-closure activities.
• Develop pre-silicon FPGA emulation environments and generate test vectors.
• Debug design and integration issues across silicon and pre-silicon platforms.
• Participate in design reviews and contribute to methodology improvements.
• Collaborate with verification, firmware and system teams to integrate and validate features.

Requirements

Must-have skills, conditions, and working requirements:

• Practical experience with ASIC/SoC design flow (design, simulation, synthesis, timing closure).
• Experience with FPGA prototyping and pre-silicon emulation.
• Ability to script or automate tools and test flows.
• Self-starter and effective team player with strong verbal and written communication.
• Legal right to work in the United States.
• Travel: up to 25%.
