You’re adept at working with advanced protocols such as Ethernet, DDR, PCIe, and USB, and have hands-on experience in data path and control path design, including Reed Solomon FEC, BCH codes, and MAC SEC engines.

Your expertise extends to synthesizable Verilog/SystemVerilog coding, timing closure, CDC analysis, and P&R-aware synthesis, complemented by a keen understanding of design trade-offs in area, latency, and throughput. You are comfortable leveraging version control systems like Perforce and scripting languages such as Perl or Shell to automate and streamline workflows. As a natural leader, you are ready to mentor and technically guide a team of designers, fostering a collaborative and inclusive culture. Communication comes easily to you, and you’re known for your proactive problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and unwavering commitment to design quality. You’re seeking an opportunity to take ownership of challenging projects, contribute to cutting-edge innovation, and grow alongside a team of world-class engineering professionals.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Architecting and implementing state-of-the-art RTL designs for the DesignWare IP family, targeting commercial, enterprise, and automotive applications.
• Translating standard and functional specifications into detailed micro-architectures and comprehensive design documentation for medium to high complexity features.
• Leading and contributing hands-on to RTL coding, synthesis, CDC analysis, debug, and test development tasks.
• Collaborating with global teams and engaging directly with customers to understand and refine specification requirements.
• Driving technical excellence in design processes, including linting, static timing analysis, formal checking, and P&R-aware synthesis using tools such as Fusion Compiler.
• Mentoring and technically leading a team of designers, providing guidance on best practices and innovative design methodologies.
• Utilizing version control systems and scripting to manage design flows and automate repetitive tasks for improved efficiency.
  
  

The Impact You Will Have:

• Enable Synopsys to deliver industry-leading, high-performance IP cores that power next-generation technologies.
• Contribute to the successful execution of complex, global projects that set new standards in chip design and verification.
• Accelerate time-to-market for customers in commercial, enterprise, and automotive sectors by delivering robust, reliable IP solutions.
• Elevate the technical capabilities of your team through mentorship and leadership, cultivating a culture of continuous learning and innovation.
• Drive improvements in design quality, efficiency, and scalability through process optimization and automation.
• Directly influence product architecture and feature enhancements, ensuring alignment with customer needs and emerging industry trends.
  
  

What You’ll Need:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, VLSI, or related field.
• 4+ years of hands-on industry experience in ASIC RTL design, with a strong portfolio of completed projects.
• Deep expertise in data path and control path design, including experience with Reed Solomon FEC, BCH codes, CRC architectures, and MAC SEC engines.
• Proficiency in synthesizable Verilog/SystemVerilog, simulation tools, and design flows including lint, CDC, synthesis, and static timing analysis.
• Familiarity with high-speed design (>600MHz), P&R-aware synthesis, and EDA tools such as Fusion Compiler.
• Experience with version control systems (e.g., Perforce) and scripting languages (Perl, Shell) for design automation.
• Knowledge of industry protocols: Ethernet, DDR, PCIe, USB, MIPI-UFS/Unipro, SD-MMC, AMBA (AMBA2, AXI).
• Exposure to quality processes in IP design and verification is an advantage.
• Prior experience as a technical lead or mentor is highly desirable.
  
  

Who You Are:

• Innovative thinker with a solutions-oriented mindset and a passion for technology.
• Excellent communicator who thrives in collaborative, multicultural, and multi-site environments.
• Natural leader with mentoring abilities, fostering inclusion and diversity within the team.
• Detail-oriented professional with strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Self-motivated, adaptable, and eager to drive technical excellence and process improvements.
• Committed to continuous learning and staying ahead of industry trends.
