Job Title

SoC Design and Integration Engineer

Role Summary

Design and integrate ASIC/SoC components for high-performance compute and AI products. Join an SoC team responsible for RTL design, flows, and methodology targeting advanced process nodes for server and data center applications.

Experience Level

Mid-level. Typical minimum experience is 2+ years in ASIC design/verification/integration; senior-level candidates with 5+ years are preferred.

Responsibilities

Core responsibilities include hands-on design, verification, and integration work across SoC and IP blocks, plus process and flow improvements.

  • Execute architecture and RTL design tasks using standard tools and methodologies.
  • Define, design, verify, and document ASIC development for SoC/IP projects.
  • Resolve architecture, design, and verification issues with minimal supervision.
  • Participate in design and architecture reviews; provide analytical input and silicon feedback.
  • Identify and implement flow and automation improvements for design and verification processes.
  • Communicate effectively with team members and cross-functional peers; present technical results.
  • Collaborate with teammates and step up during critical project phases.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience; preferred items listed separately.

  • 2+ years of practical ASIC design, verification, validation, or integration experience (see Education Requirements for degree alternatives).
  • Experience with Server/Data Center IPs, protocols, and interfaces.
  • Experience designing arithmetic, computational, or machine-learning IPs.
  • Strong understanding of design techniques for performance and power efficiency.
  • Ability to determine architecture, logic design, large-scale integration, and perform system-level simulation.
  • Experience developing tools or scripting for process automation is an advantage.
  • Good communication and presentation skills; ability to work in a team and share knowledge.

Education Requirements

Acceptable: Bachelor's degree in Science, Engineering, or a related field plus ~2+ years relevant experience; OR Master's degree in Science, Engineering, or a related field plus ~1+ year; OR PhD in a Science or Engineering field. Preferred fields include Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or Computer Engineering. The posting presents degree-plus-experience alternatives rather than a single fixed degree requirement.
