Internship: Digital Design F/M

What You'll Do

• Support the development of digital sub-circuits related to complex System-on-Chip (SOC) designs based on pre-defined specifications, gaining hands-on exposure to RTL coding (Verilog/SystemVerilog), synthesis, static timing analysis (STA), formal verification, power analysis, and design for testability (DFT) concepts.
• Collaborate with analog, mixed-signal, digital, and software teams to understand interfaces, system performance considerations, and integration practices.
• Follow established design methodologies and guidance from senior engineers to contribute to schedule commitments and quality objectives.
• Assist with design verification activities using simulation tools and structured debug methodologies under the supervision of experienced engineers.
• Contribute to lab, validation, and debug preparation activities, learning how design issues are identified, analyzed, and resolved to support product quality.
• Prepare and maintain clear technical documentation, including design notes, verification summaries, and review material.
• Learn industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in digital IC design methodology through project work and team mentoring.
• Your Profile Currently pursuing a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• Basic knowledge of Verilog/SystemVerilog for RTL design and/or verification, gained through coursework, academic projects, or previous internships.
• Familiarity with digital design flows and EDA tools is a plus, including RTL coding, synthesis, STA, or formal verification.
• Understanding of basic digital design principles, with interest in areas such as clock domain crossing (CDC), low-power design, and SoC integration.
• Exposure to scripting languages such as Python, Perl, or Tcl for automation is considered a plus.
• Attitude to problem-solving, attention to details and ability to work in team oriented environment.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment.
• Curiosity, willingness to learn, and motivation to grow technical skills in a collaborative engineering environment. ----------- NXP is committed to equal pay for equal work and work of equal value and applies fair, consistent and transparent remuneration practices.
