Overview As a Digital Design Engineer, you will contribute to high performance mixed signal SoCs by designing digital subsystems and IP blocks that interface with analog circuitry. You'll work in a collaborative, cross functional team to take digital concepts through tape out, supporting verification, bring up, and post silicon validation. Your work enables robust, manufacturable digital cores for mixed signal devices used across consumer, industrial, and embedded applications. This role offers impact in shaping next gen digital subsystems within Cirrus Logic's mission driven environment.
Responsibilities- Design and implement digital subsystems and IP blocks for mixed signal ICs from architecture through tape out
- Develop RTL designs using Verilog and integrate into larger SoC environments
- Design and verify DSP, control, and data path logic including calibration and state machines
- Perform functional and integration verification and support UVM based verification teams
- Contribute to behavioral and system modeling of digital and mixed signal systems
- Support post silicon validation, characterization, and production test, including lab bring up and silicon debug
- Collaborate to ensure correct interaction between digital logic and analog circuitry
- Participate in design reviews, tape out readiness, and root cause analysis for silicon or system issues
Key requirements- Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
- Bachelor's with 5+ years of relevant digital IC design experience; Master's with 3+ years; PhD with 0+ years
- Strong Verilog RTL design experience
- Solid understanding of digital design flow: microarchitecture, RTL development, clock/reset domain crossing, functional verification, timing constraints, synthesis
