Job Description

Lead Design Engineer
As an RTL Design Lead, you will play a critical role in leading the RTL design and verification process for complex digital designs. You will manage a team of RTL engineers, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and ensure the successful implementation of high-performance, low-power designs. The ideal candidate should have a strong technical background in RTL design, experience in digital design flow, and the ability to lead a team towards the successful execution of complex projects.
Key Responsibilities:
- RTL Architecture and Design: Lead the RTL design of complex digital systems, including microprocessors, ASICs, FPGA designs, and system-on-chip (So C) components.
- Team Leadership: Manage and mentor a team of RTL design engineers, providing technical guidance, training, and fostering a collaborative team environment.
- Design Specifications: Work closely with system architects and hardware engineers to define design specifications, ensuring the implementation meets performance, area, and power requirements.
- RTL Coding: Write and review high-quality RTL code in Verilog, System Verilog, or VHDL, focusing on scalability, reusability, and modularity.
- Design Validation: Lead the development of testbenches and collaborate with verification teams to ensure the design is thoroughly verified using simulation, formal verification, and coverage analysis.
- Timing and Performance Optimization: Drive performance and timing closure by working with design and implementation teams to address critical paths and optimize the design for low power, high speed, and minimal area.
- Integration: Lead the integration of RTL design blocks into larger systems, ensuring smooth handoffs between various teams, including digital, analog, and software teams.
- Mentorship and Collaboration: Provide mentorship to junior engineers and collaborate with cross-functional teams, including verification, software, and physical design teams to ensure the design meets all system requirements.
- Documentation and Reporting: Ensure the proper documentation of design flows, methodology, and processes, including regular design reviews and progress reports to management.
- Continuous Improvement: Drive continuous improvement in RTL design methodologies, best practices, and tools. Stay up to date with the latest trends and technologies in RTL design and digital systems.
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
- 7+ years of experience in RTL design for complex digital systems, with at least 3+ years of leadership experience in managing teams and projects.
- Expertise in Verilog, System Verilog, or VHDL for RTL coding, with a strong understanding of digital design principles.
- Proven experience in designing and verifying large-scale So C, ASIC, or FPGA designs.
- Strong understanding of digital design flow, including synthesis, place-and-route, timing analysis, and power optimization.
- Experience with simulation and verification methodologies, including UVM, SV-based testbenches, and coverage-driven verification.
- Proficient in using EDA tools such as Cadence, Synopsys, Mentor Graphics, or other RTL design and verification tools.
- Strong knowledge of timing analysis, static timing analysis (STA), and power optimization techniques.
- Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills, with experience in addressing complex design issues.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate technical ideas clearly and effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
