Job description

• Propose, architect, and design RTL in Verilog for use in a mixed-signal integrated circuit
• Contribute as part of a highly experienced team of engineers with extensive cross-functional skill set
• Apply clocking controls, FSM design, low power techniques, and high-speed design concepts
• Participate in design, architecture, and verification reviews
• Oversee digital backend design, including synthesis, static timing analysis, and logic equivalence checking
• Create documentation targeting design, verification, and test teams
• Assist with the proposal, definition, documentation, and implementation of new features
• Mentor and train junior engineers and New College Grad engineers
