You will be responsible for RTL coding of blocks specified by you or others, including implementation of DSP algorithms. You will also participate in the design verification and bring-up of such blocks by writing meaningful assertions, debugging code, and otherwise interacting with the design verification team. You will contribute to the lab bring-up of those circuits by potentially writing test scripts, analyzing lab data, proposing experiments, and validating signal processing performance.&quot;,&quot;responsibilities&quot;:&quot;RTL Design &amp; Implementation: Develop and optimize RTL code in Verilog/SystemVerilog for mixed-signal digital blocks and signal processing pipelines 
 
DSP Algorithm Translation: Collaborate with algorithm engineers to translate DSP concepts (filtering, transforms, modulation, signal analysis) into efficient, high-performance RTL implementations 
 
Design Verification: Write comprehensive assertions, unit-level testbenches, and participate in functional verification using industry-standard methodologies 
 
Integration &amp; Bring-up: Partner with cross-functional teams to integrate complex IPs, validate performance in silicon, and support lab characterization 
 
Collaborative Problem-Solving: Work effectively with analog designers, algorithm engineers, verification specialists, and system architects across disciplinary boundaries 
 
Preferred Qualifications 
 
Front-end tools expertise (Verilog simulators, linters, clock-domain crossing checkers) 
 
Synthesis, static timing analysis, and design-for-test (DFT) 
 
SystemVerilog assertions, checkers, and advanced verification techniques 
 
Scripting languages (Perl, Python) 
 
Formal verification and low-power design methodologies 
 
Hardware-software co-design and system-level optimization 
 
Hands-on DSP experience: signal processing concepts, RTL algorithm implementation, hardware optimization techniques (pipelining, parallelization, resource sharing) 
 
Intermediate to advanced GenAI proficiency: Using AI tools for SystemVerilog design, validation, optimization, and understanding GenAI capabilities/limitations in hardware design
