Speed Digital Design Engineer

Senior Consultant | AI, Semiconductor, Embedded Systems, Software Engineering, C-Suite

Join a forward-thinking engineering team shaping next-generation high-speed digital technologies.

This opportunity is ideal for someone who thrives in a high-tech R&D environment and enjoys solving complex design challenges in advanced semiconductor systems.

• Define block-level and top-level specifications for high-speed digital circuits aligned with system performance goals.
• Review and refine architectural specifications to ensure efficient, robust designs.
• Collaborate with analog and mixed-signal teams to define and implement analog/digital interfaces.
• Design, implement, and verify RTL code in System Verilog or similar languages.
• Partner closely with verification and physical implementation teams to meet timing, functionality, area, and power objectives.
• Support post-silicon bring-up, lab debugging, characterization, and productization activities.
• Manage work packages, schedules, and communication, providing updates to internal and external stakeholders.

• Master’s degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering (or equivalent).
• 5+ years of semiconductor industry experience.
• Strong background in designing high-speed digital circuits using advanced CMOS technologies.
• Experience with PHY design for high-speed interfaces (e.g., USB4, PCIe) is a strong advantage.
• Advanced understanding of low-power and high-speed design techniques.
• Knowledge of signal-processing concepts (a plus).
• Familiarity with scripting/automation tools (Python, Tcl) for design flows.
• Solid understanding of clock-domain crossing concepts and mitigation strategies.
• Experience reviewing synthesis and static-timing-analysis results.
• Knowledge of verification methodologies such as UVM is beneficial.
• Exposure to analog design approaches and industry-standard EDA tools (e.g., Cadence) is advantageous.
• Strong communication, teamwork, and personal ownership.
