We are looking for a highly skilled and motivated ASIC Design Engineer to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in digital design, verification, and implementation of ASICs (Application-Specific Integrated Circuits). You will be responsible for the entire design cycle, from concept to tape-out, ensuring that our ASICs meet the highest standards of performance, power, and area. You will work closely with cross-functional teams, including system architects, software engineers, and hardware engineers, to deliver cutting-edge solutions for a variety of applications. Your role will involve defining specifications, creating design documentation, developing RTL code, running simulations, and performing synthesis and timing analysis. You will also be involved in debugging and resolving issues that arise during the design and verification phases. The successful candidate will have excellent problem-solving skills, a keen eye for detail, and the ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. If you are passionate about ASIC design and eager to contribute to innovative projects, we would love to hear from you.
