GPU (RTL) Design - Senior Engineer

Job Title

GPU (RTL) Design - Senior Engineer

Role Summary

Responsible for RTL design and integration of GPU-related ASIC blocks within the ASICS Engineering team in Bangalore. Deliver RTL implementations for complex multi-clock-domain blocks, collaborate with verification and validation teams, and support pre- and post-silicon debug and bring-up.

Experience Level

Senior - title indicates senior level. Posting specifies 2–4 years of ASIC RTL design experience; minimum qualifications list Bachelor's +3 years / Master's +2 years / PhD +1 year of relevant hardware engineering experience.

Responsibilities

Key responsibilities include design, integration, and debug of GPU RTL blocks and ensuring timing and power targets are met.

• Design and implement RTL (Verilog/SystemVerilog) for complex blocks and multi-clock domains.
• Integrate IP and handle asynchronous interfaces between clock domains.
• Implement and verify AMBA protocols (AXI, AHB, APB) and clock/reset/debug architecture.
• Collaborate with design verification and validation teams for pre- and post-silicon debug.
• Work with synthesis, timing closure, and static timing analysis workflows.
• Use ASIC flows and tools for linting, CDC checking, synthesis (Design Compiler), and timing analysis (PrimeTime).
• Support low-power design techniques and implementation as required.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience.

• Strong RTL coding skills in Verilog/SystemVerilog and solid understanding of logic design and micro-architecture.
• Hands-on experience with multi-clock designs and asynchronous interfaces; experience with clock domain crossing (CDC).
• Familiarity with synthesis and timing concepts for ASIC (timing closure, constraints).
• Experience with ASIC toolchain components: lint, CDC tools, synthesis (Design Compiler), and timing (PrimeTime).
• Knowledge of AMBA protocols (AXI, AHB, APB) and clock/reset architecture.
• Nice-to-have: understanding of memory controller designs and microprocessors; prior low-power design experience.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field with 3+ years of hardware engineering experience; OR Master's degree in those fields with 2+ years' experience; OR PhD with 1+ year of experience. Fields listed: Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering.
