PE Logic Design Engineer

Job Title

PE Logic Design Engineer

Role Summary

The PE Logic Design Engineer is responsible for designing, implementing, and delivering digital logic for ASIC/SoC projects. The role works within a cross-functional chip team including verification, physical design, firmware, and system architects.

Primary mission: produce synthesizable RTL, support synthesis and timing closure, and drive design issues to tape-out readiness.

Experience Level

Mid-level. Typical expectation: several years of hands-on ASIC/SoC logic design experience (e.g., ~3+ years).

Responsibilities

Key responsibilities include:

• Develop synthesizable RTL (SystemVerilog/Verilog) for digital blocks and subsystems.
• Create and maintain design constraints, synthesis scripts, and timing models.
• Collaborate with verification engineers to ensure design correctness and coverage.
• Work with physical design and timing teams to achieve timing closure and area/power targets.
• Perform design reviews, code quality checks, and participate in architecture trade-offs.
• Debug integration issues in silicon bring-up and support post-silicon validation.
• Produce clear design documentation and handoff materials.

Requirements

Must-have and preferred qualifications.

• Must-have: Hands-on experience writing synthesizable RTL in Verilog/SystemVerilog.
• Must-have: Practical experience with ASIC/SoC design flows, synthesis tools, and static timing analysis.
• Must-have: Experience debugging functional and timing issues; ability to read schematics and timing reports.
• Must-have: Scripting skills for automation (Python, Perl, or Tcl).
• Nice-to-have: Familiarity with UVM, formal verification, or FPGA prototyping.
• Nice-to-have: Experience with low-power design techniques, physical design constraints, or multi-clock domain design.

Education Requirements

Not specified.
