RTL Design Engineer

Summary

Designs and validates synthesizable RTL for digital IPs and SoC subsystems using Verilog/SystemVerilog, ensuring clean signoff through Lint, CDC, RDC, and synthesis checks.

Project description

The ideal candidate will develop high-quality RTL, drive IP/subsystem integration, and ensure design readiness through rigorous quality checks including Lint, CDC, RDC, synthesis, and handoff validation.

Responsibilities

  • * Own RTL development from architecture interpretation through design handoff, including IP integration, clock/reset handling, address mapping, and configuration. * Perform detailed RTL reviews and quality assessments, identifying and driving closure of functional, structural, and methodology issues. * Analyze and resolve Lint, CDC/RDC, X-propagation, synthesis, and structural violations, collaborating with architecture, design, and verification teams. * Ensure RTL handoff readiness through clean signoffs, protocol compliance, register-spec alignment, and clock/reset architecture validation. * Build and enhance design automation and quality methodologies, including automated checks, regression analysis, dashboards, and team-level quality gates.

SKILLS

Must have

  • * Experience: 3-6 years * Develop synthesizable RTL using Verilog/System Verilog for complex digital IPs and SoC subsystems. * Translate architecture specifications into scalable microarchitectures, integrating IPs and AMBA interfaces including AXI4, AXI4-Lite, AHB, and APB. * Drive RTL quality and design signoff, ensuring coding standards, methodology compliance, clean reviews, and first-pass silicon readiness. * Own closure of Lint, CDC, RDC, X-propagation, structural checks, synthesis issues, and design-rule violations. * Develop automation, dashboards, and quality metrics to improve RTL development, verification handoff, and signoff efficiency.

Nice to have

Candidates should be passionate about design quality, automation, and delivering production-ready RTL with minimal debug cycles.
