ARM Senior Principal SoC Design Engineer 

United States, California, San Diego 

357503802

• As a creative design engineer with a knowledge of subsystems and SoCs you will be part of a team developing logic for our innovative high-performance compute and AI solutions.
• You will work as part of the design team to understand and review the SoC architecture and develop the design specifications which meet leading complex power/performance goals. Your key responsibilities will include crafting design micro-architecture specifications, developing the RTL, fixing bugs, running design checks and contributing to the generation of implementation constraints.
• You will also work closely with the verification team to review test plans and help debug design issues and with the performance/power analysis teams to evaluate and improve SoC performance/power.
• As part of the design team you will contribute to developing and enhancing the design methodologies used by the team.
• You will mentor and support other members of the team to enable the successful completion of project activities.
• You will balance other opportunities such as working with Project Management on plans and schedules

In addition to bringing your accomplishment of either Bachelors or Master’s degree in Computer Science or Electrical/Computer Engineering or a similar related field and 10+ years experience working in design of complex compute subsystems or SoCs, you will need:

• Experience in digital hardware design for complex systems using Verilog HDL.
• Experience with power and clock domain crossing and with static design checks like linting, CDC/RDC, X-propagation
• Exposure to all stages of design: initial concept, specification, implementation, power and performance analysis, power optimization, testing, documentation and support
• Experience or knowledge in synthesis, timing constraints, power management techniques
• Experience collaborating with the verification team on design quality closure
• Experience with Perl, Python or other scripting language
• Leadership, mentoring or coaching experience

• Experience with ARM-based designs and/or ARM System Architectures
• Experience with SystemVerilog and verification methodologies – UVM/OVM/e
• Experience with UPF, IP-XACT
• Experience leading teams or projects
• Experience developing and integrating subsystems for PCIe, UCIe, DDR/LPDDR/HBM, Ethernet etc.
• Understanding of DFT topics: RTL testability, scan insertion, OCC
