Job Title

Senior Digital Design Engineer

Role Summary

Senior Digital Design Engineer responsible for RTL architecture, digital/mixed-signal integration, verification, and supporting physical implementation for ASIC/SoC products. Works within a cross-functional IC design team to take blocks from RTL through silicon characterization.

Experience Level

Senior-level; preferably 5+ years of digital IC/ASIC design and verification experience.

Responsibilities

Primary tasks and deliverables for the role:

  • Develop RTL in Verilog/SystemVerilog for complex digital and mixed-signal IC blocks.
  • Design and implement SystemVerilog/UVM verification environments, test plans, assertions, coverage models, and regression suites.
  • Perform block- and top-level integration, functional/CDC/reset/timing debug, and verification.
  • Support synthesis, static timing analysis, lint, CDC checks, and low-power verification flows.
  • Collaborate with system and backend engineers on architecture trade-offs, floorplanning, timing closure, and place-and-route activities.
  • Create SystemVerilog models of analog blocks and assist with mixed-signal integration and silicon bring-up.
  • Perform FPGA prototyping, bench testing, characterization, and debug from prototype to production release.
  • Document and report IC design results, test data, and evaluations to stakeholders.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills, tools, and working abilities:

  • Strong RTL and digital IC architecture skills; experience with DSP concepts.
  • Proficiency in Verilog/SystemVerilog and UVM-based verification methodologies.
  • Solid understanding of clock-domain crossing, reset synchronization, timing closure, and ASIC/SoC flows.
  • Experience with EDA tools for simulation, verification, synthesis, place-and-route, and debug.
  • Familiarity with bench testing and characterization of analog/mixed-signal circuits and test equipment.
  • Proficiency with UNIX/Linux and Python scripting for automation and tooling.
  • Experience with FPGA prototyping and emulation platforms is desirable.
  • Required familiarity with working in agent-based (Agentic) AI environments.
  • Strong written and verbal technical communication and ability to work in cross-functional teams.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) required; Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering (MSEE) preferred. Degrees in closely related technical fields are acceptable where noted in the hiring criteria.
