Why a CV for this job?

94% of employers say their filters drop qualified candidates whose CV does not match the ad's exact criteria (Harvard Business School, 2021).

  • They see what they asked for, first. Your experience that matches the ad leads, in the ad's own words, so someone skimming finds it in seconds.
  • It gets past the software. Many larger employers use software that ranks CVs by how closely they match the ad, often before anyone reads them.
  • In the language of the ad. An ad written in Spanish gets a CV in Spanish, even when yours is in Portuguese.
  • Your facts, nothing invented. Your own experience, reordered and reworded. What the ad wants and your CV does not show is listed for you to add, only if it is true. You check it before you send it.

Responsibilities:

  • Define, develop, verify and optimize complex digital circuits for low-power mixed-signal circuits. Design digital hardware functions and sub systems in RTL code using SystemVerilog, Verilog or VHDL. Collaborate with system design to create digital specification definition. Implement design for testability (scan chain, BIST, boundary scan) and diagnosis features to support hardware testing. Generate technical documentation and participate in design reviews. (40%)
  • Support constraints definition, logic synthesis, and physical design for timing closure, DFT insertion and test vectors creation, static timing closure. (15%)
  • Support development of comprehensive verification plans and testbenches, including functional verification, RTL and gate-level simulations, timing analysis, and top verification. Participate in pre-silicon digital hardware emulation and FPGA prototyping. (15%)
  • Support silicon lab evaluation, performance characterization and debug. (10%)
  • Interface with system, embedded firmware, analog, verification and cross functional teams. (10%)
  • Technical support to test, product and application engineers. (10%)

Minimum Qualifications:

  • 4+ years of industry experience in digital integrated circuit design
  • B.S. or M.S. in Electrical or Computer Engineering
  • Strong analytical, synthesis and problem solving skills
  • Solid knowledge and experience in digital IC development, frontend-to-backend flow, timing closure, data path, signal processing, low-power techniques, basic constraints development, timing analysis, system trade-offs (power, speed, hardware resources, area)
  • Background with MCU based hardware systems (ARM, RISC-V, PIC, STM32) with memories, digital micro-architecture, interfaces, and dedicated hardware peripherals
  • Proficiency in SystemVerilog/Verilog/VHDL, scripting languages (Python, Perl, tcl), debugging capabilities, and industry leading digital EDA tools (Synopsys, Cadence, Siemens)
  • Knowledge of verification methodologies and tools (SystemVerilog, UVM/OVM, formal verification)
  • Demonstration of technical ownership and successful execution
  • Experience with standard hardware protocols (I2C, I3C, SPI, MIPI)
  • Independent, self-motivated, rigorous, team player and able to follow through
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills

Desired Qualifications

  • Digital development for mixed-signal ICs
