RTL Design Engineer

Job Title

RTL Design Engineer

Role Summary

Design RTL for advanced-node mixed-signal ASICs in Teradyne's Silicon Technology Engineering (STE) Digital ASIC Group. Collaborate with chip architects, analog engineers, verification, and physical design teams across specification, micro-architecture, RTL, verification, timing closure, and silicon bring-up.

Deliver high-quality RTL for large mixed-signal SOCs and memory test instruments used in production semiconductor test systems.

Experience Level

Senior — typically requires 5+ years of RTL/ASIC design experience.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include design, integration, verification collaboration, and silicon bring-up:

• Develop specifications, micro-architecture, and RTL for mission-critical ASIC blocks.
• Integrate industry-standard and Teradyne custom IP blocks.
• Collaborate with verification on test plans, debug support, and coverage closure.
• Provide timing constraints and STA support to physical design for timing closure.
• Support post-silicon lab bring-up and debugging.
• Automate design and verification tasks using scripting and build tools.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience:

• Extensive RTL design experience in Verilog, including state machines, FIFOs, high-speed datapaths, arbitration logic, and DFT.
• Experience with logic synthesis and timing constraints.
• Experience with clock domain crossings (CDC) and static timing analysis (STA).
• Experience with high-speed memory interfaces and serial interfaces.
• Proficiency in scripting/automation (Python, Tcl, Make or similar) for design flows.
• Ability to collaborate with analog, verification, and physical design teams and provide silicon debug support.

Nice-to-have:

• Experience with advanced-node ASIC design and large mixed-signal SOCs.
• Familiarity with tools and flows for timing closure and post-silicon bring-up.

Education Requirements

Bachelor of Science (BSEE) or Master of Science (MSEE) in Electrical Engineering or a related field is specified. The posting indicates 5+ years of relevant experience.
