TL;DR · ASIC/SoC Design Engineer, RTL design for SoC IPs

As a Senior ASIC Design Engineer at AMD's Silicon Design team, you will lead the RTL design lifecycle of cutting-edge IPs for next-generation embedded products, from micro-architecture specification to production silicon. Your daily tasks include Verilog RTL coding, timing closure, and physical design collaboration, ensuring compliance with PPA targets and industry-standard protocols like AMBA AXI/AHB/APB. You will drive full ASIC development through all phases, integrate complex IP blocks into SOC designs, and work closely with verification teams to ensure comprehensive functional coverage. Essential skills include expert Verilog RTL coding, experience with the complete ASIC design flow, and hands-on knowledge of SDC timing constraints. Preferred qualifications involve familiarity with PCIe or CXL protocols, scripting languages like Python or Perl, and mentoring junior engineers in a fast-paced environment.

What you'll do

  • Author detailed micro-architecture specifications and implement Verilog RTL for major IP blocks.
  • Drive full ASIC development lifecycle from specification to post-silicon validation.
  • Develop timing constraints and resolve static timing analysis violations.
  • Integrate complex IP blocks into SOC environment ensuring proper connectivity and compliance with industry standards.
  • Implement design-for-test features and participate in RTL quality reviews.
  • Collaborate with physical design engineers on floor planning and clock tree synthesis.

What we're looking for

  • Proven track record with 2+ production ASIC tape-outs in senior roles.
  • Expert-level Verilog RTL coding skills and deep understanding of synthesizable constructs.
  • Hands-on experience across the full ASIC design flow from RTL to physical design.
  • Experience writing and debugging SDC timing constraints for complex designs.
  • Knowledge of industry-standard on-chip interconnect protocols (AMBA AXI/AHB/APB).
  • Strong ability to mentor junior engineers and lead design teams.
