Responsibilities

• As a lead design engineer with a knowledge of subsystems and SoCs you will be leading an IP development team which owns our Debug Subsystems.
• Work with the Architect(s) to understand Subsystem requirements, and develop the design specifications which meet the quality, reliability, manufacturing and reconfigurable needs across multiple SoCs.
• Your key technical responsibilities will include writing design micro-architecture specifications, developing the RTL, fixing bugs, running design checks and contributing to the generation of implementation constraints.
• Partner with the verification lead to review test plans and help debug design issues.

• More than 15+ years experience working in design of complex subsystems or SoCs
• Experience with ARM-based designs and/or ARM System Architectures
• Hands-on experience with Arm CoreSight IP and debug/trace architectures.
• Experience with AMBA protocols, JTAG, SW.
• Advanced proficiency in SystemVerilog and Verilog.
• Experience writing and reviewing microarchitecture and design specifications.
• Experience with power, clock domain crossing, and reset domain crossing
• Experience with Perl, Python or other scripting language
• Leadership, mentoring or coaching experience
  
  

"Nice to Have" Skills and Experience:

• Exposure to low-power design techniques (UPF/CPF).
• Experience with DFT concepts: Scan, Mbist, SSN...
• Work with physical design teams to address floor-planning, clocking, reset strategies, and timing closure considerations.
