Lead design engineer

Lead Design EngineerAs an RTL Design Lead, you will play a critical role in leading the RTL design and verification process for complex digital designs. You will manage a team of RTL engineers, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and ensure the successful implementation of high-performance, low-power designs. The ideal candidate should have a strong technical background in RTL design, experience in digital design flow, and the ability to lead a team towards the successful execution of complex projects.Key Responsibilities:RTL Architecture and Design: Lead the RTL design of complex digital systems, including microprocessors, ASICs, FPGA designs, and system-on-chip (So C) components.Team Leadership: Manage and mentor a team of RTL design engineers, providing technical guidance, training, and fostering a collaborative team environment.Design Specifications: Work closely with system architects and hardware engineers to define design specifications, ensuring the implementation meets performance, area, and power requirements.RTL Coding: Write and review high-quality RTL code in Verilog, System Verilog, or VHDL, focusing on scalability, reusability, and modularity.Design Validation: Lead the development of testbenches and collaborate with verification teams to ensure the design is thoroughly verified using simulation, formal verification, and coverage analysis.Timing and Performance Optimization: Drive performance and timing closure by working with design and implementation teams to address critical paths and optimize the design for low power, high speed, and minimal area.Integration: Lead the integration of RTL design blocks into larger systems, ensuring smooth handoffs between various teams, including digital, analog, and software teams.Mentorship and Collaboration: Provide mentorship to junior engineers and collaborate with cross-functional teams, including verification, software, and physical design teams to ensure the design meets all system requirements.Documentation and Reporting: Ensure the proper documentation of design flows, methodology, and processes, including regular design reviews and progress reports to management.Continuous Improvement: Drive continuous improvement in RTL design methodologies, best practices, and tools. Stay up to date with the latest trends and technologies in RTL design and digital systems.Required Qualifications:Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.7+ years of experience in RTL design for complex digital systems, with at least 3+ years of leadership experience in managing teams and projects.Expertise in Verilog, System Verilog, or VHDL for RTL coding, with a strong understanding of digital design principles.Proven experience in designing and verifying large-scale So C, ASIC, or FPGA designs.Strong understanding of digital design flow, including synthesis, place-and-route, timing analysis, and power optimization.Experience with simulation and verification methodologies, including UVM, SV-based testbenches, and coverage-driven verification.Proficient in using EDA tools such as Cadence, Synopsys, Mentor Graphics, or other RTL design and verification tools.Strong knowledge of timing analysis, static timing analysis (STA), and power optimization techniques.Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills, with experience in addressing complex design issues.Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate technical ideas clearly and effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.Experience: 7 to 12 YearsLocation: Bangalore
