Job description

Now is an exciting time to join our team as we continue to change the industry through experience in technology development, full-custom ASIC and electronics development across the Semiconductor, Medical and Defense industries, including some of the most challenging fabrication processes and product applications. We are always looking for talented and dedicated IC Design Professionals to join our organization.

IC Enable is seeking an experienced RTL Design Engineer to support digital IC development from architecture through implementation. This role is ideal for an engineer with strong Verilog/SystemVerilog RTL design experience, a solid understanding of ASIC/SoC development flows, and the ability to collaborate across design, verification, analog/mixed-signal, physical design, and product engineering teams.

The RTL Design Engineer will contribute to advanced semiconductor programs across application areas such as neurostimulation, ultrasound, read-out integrated circuits (ROICs), wireless transceivers, energy harvesting, sensor interfaces, defense electronics, and other high-reliability digital and mixed-signal systems.

Location:Richardson, TX (Hybrid, Remote considered based on experience and qualifications)

What You’ll Do:

• Develop, integrate, and debug Verilog/SystemVerilog RTL for digital blocks, processing logic, control logic, interfaces, and mixed-signal IC subsystems
• Translate architecture, system, and product requirements into efficient, maintainable RTL implementations
• Support block-level and subsystem-level integration, including IP integration, interface definition, and design documentation
• Develop and maintain design constraints; support logic synthesis, timing review, implementation handoff, and APR closure activities
• Collaborate with verification engineers by supporting RTL debug, resolving design issues, and providing design intent needed for functional verification
• Participate in design reviews, technical documentation, implementation planning, and silicon bring-up or characterization support as needed
• Work closely with analog/mixed-signal, physical design, firmware, product, and customer-facing teams to support successful silicon development and delivery
• Apply industry best practices throughout the IC development lifecycle, including design quality, reuse, maintainability, and traceability

What We’re Looking For:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
• Working knowledge of the RTL design cycle, including specification review, RTL implementation, synthesis support, verification debug, documentation, and product support
• Experience with System Verilog RTL design, coupled with design synthesis
• Familiarity with simulation, debug, lint, CDC, reset-domain crossing, and other design quality checks
• Experience collaborating with verification, analog/mixed-signal, physical design, and product engineering teams
• Strong understanding of silicon development methodologies, EDA tools, and semiconductor design best practices
• Excellent debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to communicate complex technical information clearly
• Must be eligible to work on ITAR-controlled projects, which may require U.S. citizenship or lawful permanent resident status
