A͏SIC RTL Architect

RTL Architect

Experience 15+ years

Location: Hyderabad / Bengaluru / Kochi / Chennai / Pune

Domain ASIC / SoC – Turnkey Silicon

Employment Full-time

Good to Have

• ARM or RISC-V subsystem integration

• Die-to-die / UCIe and chiplet architectures

• Post-silicon debug experience

What You Will Do

• Define micro-architecture, block partitioning and interface specifications from system requirements.

• Own PPA trade-offs and RTL quality: lint, CDC/RDC, synthesis and constraints (SDC, UPF).

• Lead subsystem and SoC integration, and drive design and code reviews.

• Partner with DV, DFT and PD to close verification, testability, timing and power.

• Mentor and technically guide RTL teams; act as the escalation point for design issues.

• Support emulation, FPGA prototyping, silicon bring-up and root-cause analysis.

What You Bring :

• 15+ years in RTL design and integration, with multiple tape-outs in a lead or architect role.

• Expert Verilog / SystemVerilog and strong micro-architecture skills.

• Deep experience with AMBA (AXI/AHB/APB), NoC and high-speed interfaces such as PCIe, DDR/LPDDR, Ethernet, USB. • Solid grasp of low-power design (UPF), clocking, CDC/RDC and timing-driven RTL.

• Proficiency with front-end tools: lint, CDC, synthesis, STA; scripting in Python, Perl or Tcl.

• Clear technical communication with customers and cross-functional teams.
