Job Title : Chip Design Front End (RTL / System Architecture)

Job Description :

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Chip Design Front End (RTL / System Architecture) professional to join our team as a Chip Design Engineer focused on Front-End development, with a strong emphasis on RTL design and system architecture. The ideal candidate will possess a minimum of 8 years of hands-on experience in ARM-based MCU product development and demonstrate a deep understanding of both system-level design and RTL implementation. This role offers an exciting opportunity to be involved in the entire design cycle, from architectural planning to post-production support.

Key Responsibilities :

System Architecture Development :

  • Define and develop microcontroller-based system architectures, primarily based on ARM cores.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define technical requirements and translate them into scalable architectural solutions.
  • Lead architecture reviews and provide technical guidance on performance optimization and power efficiency.

RTL Design and Integration :

  • Design and implement Register Transfer Level (RTL) modules using hardware description languages such as Verilog or SystemVerilog.
  • Ensure successful integration of RTL components within larger SoC environments.
  • Collaborate closely with backend teams to support timing closure and synthesis.
  • Debugging and Logic Design :

  • Use advanced debugging techniques and simulation tools to identify and resolve logic issues.
  • Participate in design reviews and provide expertise on design optimization, area reduction, and performance tuning.
  • Verification Leadership :

  • Provide hands-on leadership for verification teams throughout the verification lifecycle.
  • Oversee the development and maintenance of verification environments.
  • Ensure thorough static and dynamic verification processes.
  • Manage test plans, coverage metrics, and regression analysis.
  • Handle UPF (Unified Power Format), GLN (Gate Level Netlist), and test mode-related requirements effectively.
  • EDA Tools Expertise :

  • Utilize industry-standard EDA tools for design and verification, with a preference for Synopsys platforms.
  • Perform LINT checks, Clock Domain Crossing (CDC) analysis, and SDC (Synopsys Design Constraints) validation.
  • Conduct power analysis and contribute to power-aware design strategies.
  • Product Lifecycle Support :

  • Provide ongoing support through the pre-production and post-production phases.
  • Address production issues, manage engineering change requests, and contribute to RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) resolution.
  • Ensure successful product deployment and customer satisfaction through detailed documentation and cross-team Skills and Qualifications :
  • Minimum of 8 years of experience in ARM-based MCU architecture and RTL design.
  • Proven expertise in logic design, debugging, and integration.
  • Leadership experience in verification, including test management and environment development.
  • Strong familiarity with EDA tools used in LINT, CDC, SDC validation, and power analysis.
  • Experience supporting the full silicon lifecycle, including RMA processes.
  • Preferred Tools :

  • Synopsys tool suite for design and verification.
  • This role is ideal for professionals who thrive in a fast-paced environment and have a passion for developing high-performance, low-power embedded systems. If you are a results-driven engineer with a solid foundation in chip design and a track record of successful product development, we encourage you to apply.
