You Are:

You are a passionate and forward-thinking digital design expert with a strong foundation in ASIC RTL design and a proven track record of delivering complex, high-performance IP cores. With a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in EE, EC, or VLSI and over four years of relevant industry experience, you thrive in dynamic, multi-site environments and excel at translating functional specifications into robust, scalable architectures.

Responsibilities:

Architecting and implementing state-of-the-art RTL designs for the DesignWare IP family, targeting commercial, enterprise, and automotive applications.

Translating standard and functional specifications into detailed micro-architectures and comprehensive design documentation for medium to high complexity features.

Leading and contributing hands-on to RTL coding, synthesis, CDC analysis, debug, and test development tasks.

Collaborating with global teams and engaging directly with customers to understand and refine specification requirements.

Driving technical excellence in design processes, including linting, static timing analysis, formal checking, and P&R-aware synthesis using tools such as Fusion Compiler.

Mentoring and technically leading a team of designers, providing guidance on best practices and innovative design methodologies.

Utilizing version control systems and scripting to manage design flows and automate repetitive tasks for improved efficiency.

The Impact You Will Have:

Enable Synopsys to deliver industry-leading, high-performance IP cores that power next-generation technologies.

Contribute to the successful execution of complex, global projects that set new standards in chip design and verification.

Elevate the technical capabilities of your team through mentorship and leadership, cultivating a culture of continuous learning and innovation.

Drive improvements in design quality, efficiency, and scalability through process optimization and automation.

Directly influence product architecture and feature enhancements, ensuring alignment with customer needs and emerging industry trends.

What You’ll Need:

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, VLSI, or related field.

4+ years of hands-on industry experience in ASIC RTL design, with a strong portfolio of completed projects.

Deep expertise in data path and control path design, including experience with Reed Solomon FEC, BCH codes, CRC architectures, and MAC SEC engines.

Proficiency in synthesizable Verilog/SystemVerilog, simulation tools, and design flows including lint, CDC, synthesis, and static timing analysis.

Familiarity with high-speed design (>600MHz), P&R-aware synthesis, and EDA tools such as Fusion Compiler.

Experience with version control systems (e.g., Perforce) and scripting languages (Perl, Shell) for design automation.

Knowledge of industry protocols: Ethernet, DDR, PCIe, USB, MIPI-UFS/Unipro, SD-MMC, AMBA (AMBA2, AXI).

Exposure to quality processes in IP design and verification is an advantage.

Prior experience as a technical lead or mentor is highly desirable.

Who You Are:

Innovative thinker with a solutions-oriented mindset and a passion for technology.

Excellent communicator who thrives in collaborative, multicultural, and multi-site environments.

Natural leader with mentoring abilities, fostering inclusion and diversity within the team.

Detail-oriented professional with strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
