Contribute to IP selection and architecture definition; create functional specifications.
Perform PPA evaluation and optimization. Develop RTL for functional blocks/units with architectural features and timing constraints, targeting synthesis and APR.
Support debugging across RTL simulation, gate-level, and post-layout simulations.
Conduct quality checks using FE EDA tools such as Spyglass.lint, CDC, RDC, etc.
Take ownership of the full project lifecycle, from architecture to production.
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
> 10 years of hands-on experience in digital frontend design.
Strong proficiency in Verilog/VHDL.
Hands-on experience with logic FE tools (e.g., VCS, Verdi, Spyglass, DC).
Experience in Static Timing Analysis is a strong plus.
Prefer candidates with experience implementing advanced-process chips.
