TL;DR · Cellular ASIC Design Engineer – Protocols

As a Cellular ASIC Design Engineer at our cutting-edge hardware team, you will play a pivotal role in architecting and implementing protocol processing hardware for future wireless SoCs. Your responsibilities include micro-architecture design and RTL implementation, optimizing pipelining architectures to enhance performance metrics, driving latency optimization, and defining HW/FW/SW partitioning. You will also develop architectural prototypes, bring up hardware in the lab, and collaborate closely with software and firmware teams to ensure high-quality deliverables. This role requires expertise in SystemVerilog and Verilog, proficiency with synthesis and timing analysis tools, and a solid understanding of AMBA bus protocols like AXI or AHB. Additionally, experience with low-power design techniques and scheduling/QoS mechanisms is essential for success in this challenging yet rewarding position.

What you'll do

  • Design micro-architecture and implement RTL for cellular protocol hardware.
  • Analyze and optimize pipelining architectures to enhance performance metrics.
  • Drive latency optimization and QoS support in hardware design.
  • Define partitioning strategies between HW/FW/SW for protocol processing.
  • Develop architectural prototypes to validate early-stage design decisions.
  • Bring up and debug hardware in laboratory settings.

What we're looking for

  • Hands-on expertise in SystemVerilog and Verilog for RTL implementation.
  • Skilled in synthesis and timing analysis tools for hardware optimization.
  • Experience with low-power design techniques to enhance efficiency.
  • Proficiency with AMBA bus protocols (AXI, AHB) or similar on-chip networks.
  • Expertise in designing and optimizing scheduling and QoS mechanisms.
