Senior Digital Design

What You'll Do

• Lead and execute the full digital IC design flow for complex System-on-Chip (SOC), including specification definition, architectural design, RTL coding (Verilog/SystemVerilog), synthesis, static timing analysis (STA), formal verification, and power analysis.
• Contribute to design for testability (DFT) implementation and verification.
• Collaborate closely with analog, mixed-signal, and software teams to define interfaces, optimize system performance and ensure seamless integration.
• Develop and implement innovative digital architectures and design methodologies to meet challenging performance, power, and area targets.
• Perform comprehensive design verification using simulation tools, formal verification techniques, and hardware emulation.
• Participate in post-silicon validation and debug activities, identifying and resolving issues to ensure product quality.
• Mentor junior engineers, provide technical guidance, and contribute to continuous improvement of design processes and methodologies.
• Generate detailed design documentation, including specifications, test plans, and design reviews.
• Stay abreast of industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in digital IC design methodology shared in the team.
• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or related field.
• Minimum of 5+ years of experience in digital IC design.
• Expertise in Verilog/SystemVerilog for RTL design and verification.
• Proven experience with industry-standard EDA tools for synthesis, STA (e.g., Synopsys Design Compiler, Cadence Genus, Primetime), formal verification (e.g., Synopsys Formality), and simulation (e.g., VCS, QuestaSim).
• Strong understanding of digital design principles, clock domain crossing (CDC) issues, power integrity, and low-power design techniques.
• Experience with scripting languages (e.g., Python, Perl, Tcl) for automation and design flow optimization.
• Familiarity with mixed-signal integration challenges and verification methodologies.
• Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and debugging skills.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment.
• Ability to take initiative, work independently, and lead technical discussions. ----------- NXP is committed to equal pay for equal work and work of equal value and applies fair, consistent and transparent remuneration practices.
