Senior Digital Design Engineer, High-Speed I/O and Photonics

What you'll do

• Develop high-speed DSPs, silicon photonics IPs, and chips for frontend development.
• Define chip-level features, programming models, and application interface specifications.
• Create micro-architecture specifications, calibration algorithms, and adaptation algorithms.
• Define synthesis constraints and drive timing closure for backend design.
• Evaluate PPA trade-offs based on synthesis and P&R feedback.
• Participate in silicon bring-up and build testing scripts for debugging and characterization.
• Perform performance tuning and production support for new silicon.

What we're looking for

• B.S. or M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience.
• 5+ years of experience in high-speed digital design.
• Proficiency with front-end design flow and tools.
• Deep understanding of Verilog or System Verilog, logic design concepts, and typical structures.
• Good understanding of design for test, timing constraints, and static timing analysis.
• Experience with industry verification methodologies, such as UVM.
• Knowledge of optical transceiver devices and integrated components such as modulators, detectors, and TIAs (preferred).
• Experience with SerDes architecture, building blocks, and mixed-signal circuit design concepts (preferred).
