Role: Senior Design Engineer (RTL)

We are looking for an experienced Senior RTL Design Engineer to join our team in developing cutting-edge automotive microcontroller solutions. The ideal candidate will have deep understanding of RTL design and SoC integration, particularly in the context of ARM-based architectures, and a proven ability to collaborate across multiple engineering disciplines to deliver high-quality solutions for complex systems.

•Define and develop microarchitecture for various subsystems, including CPU subsystems, low-power subsystems, and Reset & Clock Management modules.

•Own SoC integration for automotive MCUs, ensuring efficient, scalable designs.

•Collaborate with IP teams, Systems, and Architecture teams to derive requirements, co-develop microarchitecture, and align on design goals for IPs, subsystems, and SoC.

•Work closely with cross-functional teams such as Design Verification (DV), Design for Testability (DFT), Emulation, and Physical Implementation to ensure quality deliverables.

•Participate in debug sessions, design reviews, and ensure design robustness and compliance with industry standards.

•Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering (EE), Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE), Computer Science (CS), or a related specialization.

•Experience: 2-5 years of hands-on experience in RTL development for IPs and SoCs.

•Experience in automotive-grade SoC designs and compliance with ISO 26262 (Functional Safety) standards.

•Familiarity with power management techniques and low-power design principles.

•Knowledge of scripting languages such as Python, Perl, or TCL for automation.

•Experience in SoC integration with ARM processors and ARM bus architectures.

•Good understanding of SoC reset and clocking architectures.

•Experience with standard interfaces like SPI/QSPI, I2C, Debug/Trace, CAN, and others.

•Expertise in industry-standard front-end (FE) tools and flows, including Lint, CDC, LEC, and power estimation tools such as Jasper Gold, Conformal, Joules, etc.

•Knowledge of DFT concepts and ability to design for testability.

•Good understanding of constraints, timing analysis, and optimization techniques.

•Proficiency in system verilog and verilog.

•Experience with industry-standard simulators (e.g., Incisive) and formal verification tools.

•Exceptional problem-solving and debugging skills.

•Strong written and verbal communication skills for effective collaboration and reporting.

•Ability to work in a team-oriented environment and guide junior engineers when needed.
