Key Responsibilities

• Define block- and top-level specifications for high-speed digital circuits that meet performance targets based on system-level requirements
• Review and challenge architectural specifications to ensure robustness and efficiency
• Specify analog/digital interfaces in close collaboration with analog and mixed-signal design teams
• Design, implement, and test RTL code
• Collaborate closely with verification and physical-implementation engineers to ensure functionality, timing, area, and power goals are met
• Support post-silicon activities, including lab bring-up, debugging, characterization, and productization
• Manage workload and schedules, providing regular updates to internal teams and external stakeholders

Skills

• Strong analytical ability to translate system-level requirements into detailed design specifications
• Hands-on design experience in PHY design for high-speed interfaces (e.g., USB4, PCIe) preferred
• Proficient RTL coding skills (SystemVerilog preferred)
• Advanced knowledge of high-speed and low-power digital design techniques
• Familiarity with signal-processing techniques (a plus)
• Proficiency in scripting and tool automation (e.g., Python, Tcl)
• Solid understanding of clock-domain crossing (CDC) concepts and mitigation techniques
• Experience analysing synthesis and static-timing-analysis (STA) results
• Knowledge of verification methodologies (e.g., UVM) is an advantage
• Self-motivated, with a strong sense of ownership and accountability
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills

Experience

• Master’s degree in Electrical or Electronics Engineering (or equivalent/higher qualification)
• 5+ years of experience in the semiconductor industry
• Strong technical background in designing high-speed digital circuits using advanced CMOS technologies
• Exposure to analog-design techniques (a plus)
• Familiarity with industry-standard EDA tools (e.g., Cadence) is beneficial
