Role Overview
We are looking for a Mid-Level SoC Design Engineer with strong expertise in ARM architecture and hands-on experience working with Arm Corestone reference systems. The candidate will support subsystem design, integration, and optimization activities across AI's next-generation SoCs.
You will work with architecture, verification, and physical design teams to bring complex ARM-based subsystems to production-quality readiness.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and integrate ARM-based subsystems derived from Arm Corestone reference packages into Azimuth AI SoCs.
- Implement and modify RTL for CPU subsystems, AMBA interconnects, memory controllers, and peripheral IP.
- Collaborate with architecture teams on feature definition, microarchitecture updates, and performance targets.
- Work closely with verification teams to debug functional issues and ensure high-quality coverage closure.
- Support synthesis, timing analysis, and physical design teams during SoC execution.
- Drive documentation, design reviews, and bring-up support for early silicon and emulation platforms.
- Contribute to methodology improvements for subsystem integration and design scalability.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
- 6-8 years of experience in SoC or subsystem design.
- Strong knowledge of ARM architecture, AMBA protocols (AXI, AHB, APB), and system-level integration.
- Hands-on experience with Arm Corestone-based packages or similar ARM reference designs.
- Proficiency in RTL design (SystemVerilog/Verilog) and SoC integration flows.
- Strong debugging skills across simulation, lint, CDC, and synthesis environments.
- Ability to collaborate in a fast-paced, cross-functional engineering environment.
Preferred Qualifications
- Knowledge of low-power design techniques and clock/power domain architecture
- B.Tech/M.Tech/BE/ME/M.Sc/M.S in Computer Science or Electronics/Electrical engineering
- Familiarity with FPGA prototyping, emulation platforms, or early silicon bring-up.
- Exposure to AI/ML accelerator-based SoCs is a plus.
