Responsibilities

Design engineers are required to demonstrate deep technical expertise across the full spectrum of activities that enable successful product delivery. This includes strong proficiency in low-power and high-speed design techniques, along with the ability to develop solutions that are highly optimized for area efficiency.

Key duties involve defining and documenting micro‑architecture specifications, developing RTL implementations, and performing comprehensive design checks to ensure correctness and quality.

Engineers will work in close partnership with the verification team to assess test coverage, review verification plans, and assist in debugging and resolving design defects.

Required Skills & Experience

• More than 10+ years' experience working in design of complex subsystems or SoCs
• Experience with ARM-based designs and/or ARM System Architectures
• Hands‑on experience with Arm CoreSight IP and debug/trace architectures
• Advanced proficiency in SystemVerilog and Verilog
• Experience with power, clock domain crossing, and reset domain crossing
• Experience with Perl, Python or other scripting language
• Leadership, mentoring or coaching experience

Nice to Have Skills and Experience

• Exposure to low‑power design techniques (UPF/CPF)
• Experience with DFT concepts: Scan, Mbist, SSN
• Work with physical design teams to address floor‑planning, clocking, reset strategies, and timing closure considerations
