GPU (RTL) Design - Sr Engineer

Job Title

GPU (RTL) Design - Senior Engineer

Role Summary

Design and integrate RTL for GPU subsystems within the ASICS Engineering team. Work on logic design, micro-architecture and RTL coding, focusing on multi-clock-domain blocks and ASIC implementation flows.

Collaborate with verification, validation and silicon teams to deliver synthesis-ready RTL and support pre/post-silicon debug.

Experience Level

Senior - the listing specifies approximately 3 to 4+ years of ASIC RTL design experience; the title indicates a senior-level engineering role.

Responsibilities

Primary duties include RTL design, integration, and delivery of GPU-related blocks and supporting ASIC implementation and debug.

• Design micro-architecture and implement RTL in Verilog/SystemVerilog.
• Integrate and verify complex multi-clock-domain blocks and asynchronous interfaces.
• Implement and interface with AMBA protocols (AXI, AHB, APB) and design clock/reset/debug architecture.
• Develop synthesis-aware RTL and work on timing closure with synthesis and static timing tools.
• Use ASIC flow tools (lint, CDC analysis, Design Compiler, PrimeTime) throughout design and signoff stages.
• Work closely with design verification and validation teams for pre- and post-silicon debug.
• Contribute to low-power design techniques and optimization when applicable.

Requirements

Technical skills and experience required and preferred.

Must-have:

• Proven ASIC RTL design experience with Verilog/SystemVerilog.
• Hands-on experience with multi-clock designs and asynchronous interfaces.
• Experience integrating complex multi-clock-domain blocks.
• Familiarity with AMBA protocols (AXI, AHB, APB).
• Experience using lint, CDC tools, synthesis (Design Compiler) and static timing analysis (PrimeTime).
• Practical understanding of synthesis and timing concepts for ASICs.

Nice-to-have:

• Understanding of memory controller designs and microprocessor interfaces.
• Experience with low-power design techniques.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or a related field with 3+ years of hardware engineering experience; OR Master's in the same fields with 2+ years of experience; OR PhD in the same fields with 1+ year of experience. Equivalent practical experience is acceptable per the listing.
