Silicon Design Engineer - RTL Integration

Job Title

Silicon Design Engineer - RTL Integration

Role Summary

Join the FPGA Product Development (FPD) Silicon Integration team to integrate RTL components from multiple design teams into next-generation FPGA and programmable SoC products. Deliver full-chip RTL connectivity models, verify that full-chip RTL matches architectural intent, and develop tooling and methodologies to improve development efficiency and quality.

Experience Level

Mid-level (Mid-Career). Years of experience not specified in the posting.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include integration, specification, verification, and tooling for full-chip RTL.

• Develop full-chip SoC RTL and connectivity models.
• Write full-chip design specification documents.
• Integrate IP components from multiple teams and coordinate with IP owners.
• Collaborate with Architecture, Software, and Verification teams to ensure RTL quality.
• Verify full-chip models match architectural intent and perform static checks.
• Run lint and other static verification tools and debug integration issues.
• Develop custom tools and methodologies to improve development efficiency and quality.

Requirements

Degree requirements are summarized in the Education Requirements section below.

• Must-have: Proficient in RTL and behavioral coding in Verilog/SystemVerilog.
