Senior Staff Engineer, Digital IC Design
Marvell TechnologyJob Title
Senior Staff Engineer, Digital IC Design
Role Summary
Design and implement micro-architecture and RTL for complex ASIC/IP within the Custom Compute, Storage and Automotive BU. Collaborate with system and chip architects, verification teams, and lab engineers to deliver production-quality blocks and reusable IP for high-performance compute, storage and automotive applications.
Experience Level
Senior-level. Typical qualification: Bachelor’s in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering with 5–10+ years of related experience, or Master’s/PhD with 3–5+ years.
Responsibilities
Deliver and maintain RTL/IP through the full design cycle and coordinate cross-functional verification and silicon bring-up.
- Design, develop, implement, verify, and document micro-architecture and RTL for complex power-management and ASIC blocks.
- Create micro-architecture and register specifications; produce reusable IP.
- Perform RTL coding, synthesis, static-timing closure, formal verification, gate-level simulation, and block-level functional verification.
- Define timing specifications and lead implementation/timing-closure activities for high-speed designs.
- Work with system and chip architects and schedule detailed cross-functional design reviews.
- Support block bring-up on silicon, lab validation, and maintenance of designed blocks.
- Evaluate and improve design and verification methodologies and tools.
Requirements
Must-have technical skills and experience; degree details are listed under Education Requirements.
- Strong SystemVerilog RTL coding techniques.
- Experience with high-speed, multi-clock-domain designs and timing closure.
- Familiarity with SoC architectures and interfaces (AXI, DDR, Ethernet, PCIe).
- Micro-architecture experience for ASICs involving chip I/O, shared memory, and embedded processors.
- Experience with synthesis, static timing analysis, formal verification concepts and SVA assertions.
- Experience with gate-level simulation and block-level functional verification.
- Strong verbal and written communication; disciplined documentation and cross-site collaboration.
- Nice to have: scripting in Python, Perl, Tcl, and UNIX shell.
Education Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field with 5–10+ years of related professional experience; or a Master’s/PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related fields with 3–5+ years of related experience.
