RTL Design Engineer

Description:

Our client is looking for an RTL Design Engineer to join their team. This is a direct and permanent opportunity.

Job Description:

We are looking for an experienced RTL Design Engineer to develop high-quality RTL, drive IP/subsystem integration, and ensure design readiness through rigorous quality checks including Lint, CDC, RDC, synthesis, and handoff validation.

Skills Required:

- Strong experience developing synthesizable RTL using Verilog/SystemVerilog.

- Experience working on complex digital IPs and SoC subsystems.

- Ability to translate architecture specifications into scalable microarchitectures.

- Experience integrating IPs and AMBA interfaces, including:

1. AXI4, AXI4-Lite, AHB, APB

- Strong understanding of RTL coding standards and design methodologies.

- Experience with RTL reviews and design quality assessments.

- Hands-on experience with:

1. Lint, CDC, RDC

2. X-propagation

3. Synthesis

4. Structural checks

5. Design-rule checks

- Experience with clock/reset handling, address mapping, and configuration.

- Strong debugging and problem-solving skills.

- Experience developing automation, dashboards, and quality metrics is an advantage.

Responsibilities:

- Develop RTL from architecture interpretation through design handoff.

- Perform IP integration, clock/reset handling, address mapping, and configuration.

- Conduct detailed RTL reviews and quality assessments.

- Identify and drive closure of functional, structural, and methodology issues.

- Analyze and resolve Lint, CDC/RDC, X-propagation, synthesis, and structural violations.

- Collaborate with architecture, design, and verification teams.

- Ensure RTL handoff readiness through clean signoffs.

- Ensure protocol compliance and register-spec alignment.

- Validate clock/reset architecture.

- Develop and enhance design automation and quality methodologies.

- Build automated checks, regression analysis, dashboards, and team-level quality gates.
