Join Cisco’s multi-disciplined engineering team as a senior ASIC designer responsible for defining and verifying complex subsystems deployed across various platforms. You will lead CDC/RDC methodology in silicon chips, design robust RTL with thorough consideration of clock domain crossing and reset domain crossing, and develop comprehensive check flows in collaboration with the CAD team. Daily tasks include reviewing constraints, approving waivers, conducting static glitch analysis, and enhancing designs to prevent hazards. Ideal candidates have extensive experience in RTL development, CDC/RDC concepts, SDC constraint creation, and VCS simulation using SystemVerilog Assertions. This role demands expertise in high-volume, quality-driven ASIC design for large-scale networking solutions.

What you'll do

  • Leads CDC/RDC methodology implementation in silicon chips.
  • Designs and implements robust RTL considering CDC/RDC.
  • Specifies comprehensive CDC/RDC check flows with CAD team.
  • Reviews and approves CDC/RDC constraints and waivers.
  • Performs static glitch analysis to prevent design hazards.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s with 8+ years or master’s with 6+ years of relevant experience in ASIC design.
  • Strong RTL development skills and extensive CDC/RDC implementation experience.
  • Expertise in maintaining CDC/RDC flow and approving constraints and waivers.
  • Proficient in static glitch analysis on synthesis-optimized gate netlists.
  • Experience in SDC constraint development and VCS simulation with SystemVerilog Assertions.
