Senior RTL Design Engineer

Senior RTL Design Engineer

Location: Bengaluru/Hyderabad

Experience: 5+ Years

Role Overview

We are looking for an RTL Design Engineer with strong experience in digital design and implementation for IP and SoC platforms. The role involves designing high-quality RTL, working on Ethernet-based designs, and ensuring robust, lint-clean, and synthesis-ready deliverables.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain RTL (Verilog/SystemVerilog) for IP and SoC components.
• Work on Ethernet MAC/PHY-related logic and associated data path/control logic.
• Ensure RTL quality through Lint, CDC, and static checks using tools such as SpyGlass.
• Analyze and resolve lint, structural, and coding guideline violations.
• Collaborate with architecture, verification, and physical design teams.
• Participate in design reviews, code walkthroughs, and spec discussions.
• Support synthesis, timing closure, and debug during integration.
• Document design intent, assumptions, and implementation details.

Required Skills & Experience

• 5+ years of experience in RTL design for IP or SoC.
• Strong proficiency in Verilog/SystemVerilog.
• Experience working on Ethernet protocols (MAC, PCS, or related subsystems).
• Hands-on experience with Lint and SpyGlass (or equivalent static analysis tools).
• Good understanding of synchronous digital design concepts.
• Familiarity with low-power design considerations.
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills.

Good to Have

• Exposure to CDC/RDC analysis and constraints.
• Experience with synthesis and STA flows.
• Knowledge of AMBA protocols (AXI/AHB).
• Prior experience in IP-to-SoC integration.

Why Join Us

• Work on high-speed networking and SoC designs.
• Opportunity to contribute to production-quality silicon.
• Collaborative and technically strong engineering environment.
