    Job Title: ASICS Engineer

    Duration: 12 Months

    Location: Onsite (San Diego, CA)

    Job Description:

    Principal Duties & Responsibilities:
    • Leverages advanced ASIC knowledge and experience to define, model, design (digital and/or analog), optimize, verify, validate, implement, and document IP (block/SoC) development for a variety of high performance, high quality, low power products.
    • Creates advanced architectures, circuit specifications, logic designs, and/or system simulations based on system-level requirements.
    • Collaborates across functional teams (e.g., software architecture, hardware architecture, product management, program management teams) to develop and execute an implementation strategy that meets system requirements and customer needs.
    • Evaluates all aspects of complex process flow from high-level design to synthesis, place and route, timing and power use, and verification or similarly for custom circuit design/layout flow.
    • Utilizes tools/applications (e.g., RTL to GDS Flow, Virtuoso) to execute and enable advanced architecture and design of multiple complex blocks/SoC or IC Packages.
    • Writes and reviews detailed technical documentation for complex EDA/IP/ASIC projects.


    Join company's design verification team in verifying the high-speed mixed-signal IP designs (PCIe, USB, MIPI, CXL, C2C, D2D, DDR, PLL, DAC, ADC, Sensors, etc.) for exciting products targeted for 5G, AI/ML, compute, IOT, and automotive applications. The team is responsible for the complete design verification lifecycle, from system-level concept to tape out and post-silicon support.

    Responsibilities:
    • Define pre-silicon and post-silicon test plans based on design specs and using applicable standards working closely with design team.
    • Architect and develop the testbench using advanced verification methodology such as System Verilog/UVM, Analog/mixed signal simulation, Low power verification, Formal verification and Gate level simulation to ensure high design quality.
    • Aware of Power aware verification methodology in SV/UVM environment to support coverage and assertions.
    • Author assertions in SVA, develop testcases, coverage models, debug and ensure coverage closure.
    • Work with digital design, analog circuit design, modeling, controller/subsystem, & SoC integration teams to complete the successful PHY level verification, integration into subsystem and SoC, and post-silicon validation.
