Wireless FPGA Prototype Design Engineer

Join Apple’s wireless silicon development team as a Wireless ASIC/FPGA Prototyping Design Engineer, where you will play a crucial role in developing signal processing designs for wireless communication SoCs. This position emphasizes energy-efficient design and innovative technologies that enhance user experiences, all within a collaborative and vertically integrated engineering environment.

Responsibilities:

• Develop signal processing intensive designs for wireless communication SoCs.
• Prototype ASICs from requirements to implementation and lab debugging.
• Perform FPGA synthesis, define timing constraints, and achieve timing closure.
• Maintain a common design platform for both ASIC and FPGA, considering memories, I/O pads, gated clocks, and complex generated clocks.
• Bring up, debug, and test FPGA/emulation models and collaterals in the lab.
• Support pre-silicon and post-silicon validation and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in a relevant field.
• Experience in FPGA flow and digital design.
• Knowledge of chip architecture and microarchitecture.
• Experience with scripting and modeling languages (Shell, C, Python, or Perl).
• Hands-on experience with lab equipment and hardware bring-up.

Skills:

• Strong background in computer architecture and wireless applications.
• Expertise in bus fabric and peripherals (APB/AHB/AXI, USB, I2C, SPI, JTAG).
• Familiarity with wireless standards (IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth).
• Experience with AMD’s design flow including Verilog, synthesis, place and route, and timing closure.
• Solid problem-solving skills in firmware/hardware development.
• Experience with emulation platforms like Palladium.
• Excellent communication and self-motivation skills.
