title: Senior SOC Clocks RTL Design Engineer
description: The NVIDIA System-On-Chip (SOC) group is looking for a Senior RTL Design Engineer to serve as the technical lead for clocks development on our next-generation networking chips. Clocks are the backbone of the SOC. In this role, you will lead the development of the chip's clocking logic , PLL and reference clock integration, clock generation, distribution, muxing and dividers, glitchless switching, clock gating, reset synchronization, and the clock domain crossing infrastructure that every unit on the die depends on. Responsibilities: Acting as the technical lead for SOC clocks development , leading the implementation of the clocking logic from specification through tape-out and bring-up Working with the architecture and micro-architecture teams on the SOC clock and reset scheme: collecting clocking requirements from units across the chip, feeding back implementation and timing considerations, and translating the agreed scheme into a verifiable design Writing and reviewing synthesizable Verilog/SystemVerilog RTL for clock generation, distribution, muxing, division, glitchless switching, gating, and reset synchronization Leading and mentoring other RTL engineers working on clocking: reviewing designs, setting coding and quality standards, and distributing work across the team Working hand-in-hand with the Physical Design (backend) team on clock tree implementation, SDC/timing constraints, partitioning, floorplan feedback, trial synthesis, and timing convergence Partnering with Design Verification on clocking testplans, functional and gate-level debug, and coverage closure Supporting Software and firmware teams on clock programming sequences, DVFS, and low-power/clock-shutdown flows Representing clocking implementation in cross-functional design reviews with architecture, PD, DV, DFT, and CAD stakeholders Requirements: B.Sc./M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering 8+ years of relevant experience in RTL/logic design, with multiple chips taken to tape-out …
