Principal Digital Design Engineer, Automotive

Our Team:
The SERDES Networking Solutions (SNS) team within NXP develops transceivers for in‑vehicle networking (IVN) with data rates from 2

Gbs to 16

Gbps. These transceivers deploy sophisticated analog and digital design to provide video, audio, control and Ethernet connectivity within the vehicle.

We are looking for a Principal Digital Design Engineer to join our team of engineers who define and implement new capabilities for our transceivers.

• Lead a team of engineers to design, implement, and support in‑vehicle networking devices as part of NXP’s Automotive product line.
• Manage day‑to‑day performance of junior engineering team members.
• Define block requirements and architecture, optimizing for area, power, and timing; implement functional safety requirements; and coordinate with verification and validation teams to comply with automotive design processes.
• Documentation:
  Create robust design documentation to clearly communicate design intent to team members.
• Implementation:
  Implement design intent in System Verilog or Chisel.
• Collaboration:
  
  Work closely with Architecture, digital and analog design, DV, and validation teams to ensure timely delivery of quality products.

• B.S./M.S. Electrical/Computer Engineering (or similar degrees).
• Experience as a chip lead, architect, or subsystem lead in leading digital design teams to meet design parameters.
• Proven track record of multiple successful tape‑outs covering the complete chip design lifecycle in industry.
• Experience in silicon design, including synthesis, static timing closure, and DFT.
• Fluency in System Verilog or VHDL and an object‑oriented software language.
• Expertise desired in Ethernet networking, automotive design processes, embedded ARM or RISC‑V processors, and Chisel.
• Hands‑on experience in debug and silicon bring‑up.

• Full‑time position with a permanent contract.
• Competitive salary.
• Bonus plan.
• Possibility to purchase extra holidays.
• Excellent pension plan.
