Description

  • Lead and manage a team of digital design engineers, including technical mentorship, career development, and performance management.
  • Own development schedules, track deliverables, and report progress to senior leadership and cross-functional teams.
  • Design and implement microarchitecture and RTL for key digital blocks in wireless SoCs, including DSP systems, interfaces, and control logic.
  • Translate high-level DSP algorithms and chip specifications into efficient hardware implementations with system architects.
  • Develop RTL for complex digital subsystems such as filters, beamformers, FFT/IFFT engines, and digital front-ends.
  • Design and integrate digital blocks for interfaces, power management, clocking, reset, test, and debug infrastructure.
  • Work with analog and mixed-signal teams on digital-analog interfaces, calibration engines, and control logic.
  • Optimize designs for power, performance, and area while meeting timing, area, and power constraints.
  • Collaborate with synthesis and backend teams to achieve timing closure and resolve design issues.
  • Contribute to verification planning, chip bring-up, lab validation, and production/spaceflight support.

Requirements

  • B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
  • 10+ years of industry experience in digital ASIC design with ownership of complex digital blocks or subsystems.
  • 3+ years of experience leading ASIC design teams or projects, including mentoring and managing deliverables.
  • Strong RTL design proficiency in SystemVerilog or Verilog, with experience in synthesis and linting tools.
  • Experience defining microarchitecture and implementing designs based on architectural guidelines and analysis.
  • Hands-on experience with timing closure and collaboration with synthesis and static timing analysis teams.
  • Familiarity with DFT concepts and tools for scan and BIST insertion.
  • Solid understanding of SoC design flows, including clock/power domain crossing, timing constraints, and verification methodologies.
  • Experience with DSP blocks for wireless communication systems such as OFDM, MIMO, channel estimation, or DFE.
  • Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools such as Synopsys, Cadence, or Siemens tools for design, synthesis, static timing analysis, and power analysis.
  • Strong debugging, problem-solving, and communication skills with the ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams.
  • Experience in wireless SoC development such as cellular, Wi-Fi, satellite, or mmWave systems, with successful tapeouts is preferred.
  • Design experience with datapath architectures, flow control, arbitration, FIFO, DMA, IOMMU, and SoC bus architectures is preferred.
  • Experience with ARM AXI/AHB bus architectures and protocols, and serial interfaces such as SPI, I3C, and UART is preferred.
  • Familiarity with DSP algorithm modeling using MATLAB, Python, or C++ and converting models into RTL is preferred.
  • Experience with FEC, baseband PHYs, or digital beamforming architectures is preferred.
  • Knowledge of digital calibration and control of RF or mixed-signal front ends is preferred.
  • Exposure to hardware-software co-design and embedded processor integration is preferred.
  • Experience working in fast-paced startup or cross-functional, geographically distributed teams is preferred.
  • Must be a U.S. person or otherwise eligible for a federally issued export control license due to ITAR requirements.

Benefits

  • Base salary range of $200,000 to $300,000 plus equity in the company.
  • Comprehensive benefits package.
  • Paid time off.
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage.
  • Life insurance.
  • Paid parental leave.
  • Other additional perks.
