In this position you will join a fast-paced team delivering new, cutting‑edge SoC's for Solidigm Solid State Drives (SSD). As an ASIC emulation engineer, you will perform various functions including logic design, verification, implementation, and/or documentation for SoC (System on a Chip) emulation. You will collaborate with other functional teams for micro‑architecture, verification strategy/architecture, logic design, firmware development, and system simulation for the SoC development based on system requirements and customer feature requests.

Regular responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Build & deliver emulation models for internal SoC development using industry standard tools & methods
• Perform logic design and/or verification for functional units and sub‑systems in SoC IP and/or full chip designs
• Perform Register Transfer Level (RTL) design and simulation for SoCs using industry‑standard methodologies
• Develop/review test and execution plans, ensuring that Solidigm’s semiconductor products will be successful
• Use industry‑standard verification methodologies such as UVM, FW co‑simulation, formal property verification, etc.
• Contribute to the development of multidimensional designs involving the layout of complex integrated circuits
• Perform all aspects of the SoC emulation flow from high‑level design synthesis to place and route, timing and power to create a design database that is ready for manufacturing.
• Continuously investigate new tools and technologies

A successful candidate will demonstrate:

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Project‑based teamwork experience
• Advanced digital logic design skills
• Proactive engagement with stakeholders across the team and organization
• Effective time management skills and ability to balance competing priorities to ensure predictable delivery of projects
• Developing recommendations and negotiating solutions for tactical issues
• Proactive identification of risks and issues
• Ability to create and deliver effective project presentation to diverse stakeholder audiences

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent
• Strong debugging and problem‑solving skills supported by relevant experience
  
  Digital logic design and implementation experience in advanced technology nodes
• Familiarity with performing functional verification, including verification methodologies such as UVM and FPV
• Languages:
  
  C, C++, Python, Java, Verilog (or VHDL), and/or System Verilog

Preferred Qualifications:

• 10+ years of experience in ASIC/SoC development or equivalent
• Advanced degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Applied Science, etc.
• Experience leading technical teams to deliver complex designs
• Familiarity with formal verification methods (e.g., System Verilog Assertions)
• Familiarity with standard ASIC/SoC design flows including synthesis, DFT, STA, UPF, and ECO flows
• Experience using Atlassian tools (Jira, Confluence, etc.) to track and manage project execution
• Working knowledge of NVMe, PCIe, DDR and/or ARM standards
• Familiarity with big box emulation platforms
• Proven ability to architect and lead IP/SoC‑level verification efforts

This position is also eligible to participate in Solidigm's restricted stock unit (RSU), restricted cash unit (RCU), and cash bonus programs. In addition, Solidigm offers a benefits package that includes medical, dental, vision, supplemental life and AD&D insurance; short- and long‑term disability; healthcare and dependent care flexible spending accounts, and a company match on eligible 401(k) plan contributions.
