Principal Digital IP Design Engineer (fmd)

Business Line Description:

Advanced Chip Engineering Digital IP team defines and develops components for a wide range of products including automotive microprocessors application processors micro-controllers and networking. The Munich Digital IP team develops interface components DSP subsystems next generation AI/ML core and RISCV IPs.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and implement digital IP and logic designs for complex Mixed-Signal System-on-Chips (SoCs) adhering to architectural specifications and performance requirements.
• Collaborate closely with hardware and software teams as well as architecture and system engineering teams to understand IP functionality and system-level use cases to define features interfaces and integrate digital blocks.
• Develop high-quality area-optimal low-power RTL design using industry-standard hardware description languages (Verilog/SystemVerilog)
• Complete design quality checks such as Lint CDC/RDC etc. using industry-standard tools.
• Conduct IP-level design verification activities including basic testbench development simulation and debugging to ensure functional correctness.
• Complete IP synthesis and basic timing analysis to meet timing area and power targets.
• Ensure IP design implementation is done according to design for testability (DFT) requirements.
• Generate comprehensive design documentation and participate in design reviews.
• Troubleshoot and resolve design issues throughout the development lifecycle.
• Stay updated with the latest industry trends tools and methodologies in digital design.

Qualification:

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering Computer Science or a related field.
• Minimum 10 years of experience in IP or subsystem design.
• Solid understanding of microprocessor architecture interconnects and cache coherency mechanisms.
• Hands-on experience with CPU design (proprietary cores RISC-V or AI/ML accelerators).
• Experience in using AI-based tools to enhance development and design efficiency.
• Experience with AMBA protocols (AHB AXI ACE CHI) and memory systems (ROM RAM Flash DDR/LPDDR).
• Advanced knowledge of Verilog SystemVerilog and C/C.
• Proficiency in scripting languages such as Python Perl TCL or Shell.
• Experience in debugging designs in both pre-silicon (simulation/emulation/FPGA) and post-silicon environments.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
• Basic conversational German is a plus.

Please note: The successful candidate may/will be responsible for security related tasks. The assignment may/will be in scope of security certifications therefore a conscious and reliable way of working is necessary.
