Amazon RTL Design Engineer Hardware Compute Group 

United States, California, Sunnyvale 

923808467

The Role:
As an RTL Design Engineer, you will be part of an advanced architecture team that is exploring new hardware designs to improve our devices. In this role, you will be responsible for defining the micro-architecture and implementing the corresponding RTL for advanced functional blocks. You will participate in the design verification and bring-up of such blocks by writing relevant assertions, debugging code, test benches, test harnesses, and otherwise interacting with the extended team. You will participate in the lab bring-up of these blocks either in an FPGA or silicon by potentially writing test scripts, analyzing lab data, proposing experiments, etc.You will work closely with multi-disciplinary groups including Product Design, Audio Technology, Computer Vision, Hardware Engineering, and Software Engineering, to architect and implement complex functional block that enable development of world-class hardware devices. In this role, you will:- Design world class hardware and software- Develop detailed design specifications and documentation
- Perform RTL coding and synthesis
- Work with Partners/Supplier to optimize and customize their products
- Run industry standard code quality tools and fix issues found by them
- Participate in test plan and coverage reviewsThe ideal candidate should have experience with RTL development environments, fluency in modern hardware description languages. They should have developed complex IP blocks from scratch that have successfully been integrated in SOCs or other such silicon that have been productized in consumer devices. They should be familiar with modern SoC architectures, various interconnect topologies such as AMBA AXI, APB, AHB, and implementations. Experience with I/O interfaces such as SPI, I2C, I2S, PDM, and MIPI CSI/DSI/Slimbus/Soundwire is

- PhD in Electrical/Computer Engineering or Computer Architecture or related field
- Project work with RTL development
- Understanding of the tape-out process for production silicon
- Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills
