Job Type: Full-time

We are looking for a highly experienced RTL Integration Engineer to lead complex SoC and subsystem RTL integration for next-generation semiconductor products. The role requires strong expertise in SystemVerilog/Verilog, digital design, AMBA protocols, static verification, timing constraints, and integration automation.

You will be responsible for integrating multi-million-gate SoCs and complex third-party IPs, ensuring design quality and integration readiness across the development lifecycle. The role involves close collaboration with Architecture, Design Verification, DFT, Synthesis, Physical Design, and other cross-functional teams to resolve integration issues and drive designs toward successful tapeout.

Requirements

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Lead RTL integration of multi-million-gate SoCs, subsystems, and complex third-party IPs.
• Integrate IPs such as PCIe, DDR, Ethernet, ARM/RISC-V cores, and other internal or external design blocks using SystemVerilog and Verilog.
• Configure and assemble SoC interconnect fabrics using AMBA AXI4, AHB, APB, and CHI protocols.
• Define and validate IP integration specifications, connectivity, configuration, clocking, resets, and interface requirements.
• Own and execute static RTL quality and sign-off flows, including Lint, CDC, RDC, and low-power intent checks.
• Work with tools such as SpyGlass, Questa CDC, VC SpyGlass, or equivalent static verification platforms.
• Develop, maintain, and validate SDC timing constraints for top-level and subsystem designs.
• Collaborate closely with Synthesis and Physical Design teams to resolve timing, area, congestion, and power-related issues.
• Analyse integration and implementation results and drive corrective actions across relevant design teams.
• Drive functional and timing ECOs during late stages of the development cycle.
• Develop and maintain automated RTL build, compilation, integration, and validation flows.
• Use Python, TCL, Perl, and Shell scripting to automate repetitive integration and verification activities.
• Debug complex full-chip RTL, connectivity, clocking, reset, timing, and integration issues.
• Collaborate with Architecture, Design Verification, DFT, Synthesis, and Physical Design teams to ensure high-quality design handoffs.
• Support design reviews, integration sign-off, release activities, and tapeout readiness.
• Identify opportunities to improve RTL integration methodology, automation, quality checks, and engineering workflows.
• Mentor junior engineers and provide technical guidance on RTL integration, static checks, debugging, and design best practices.
• Maintain integration documentation, specifications, scripts, and technical sign-off requirements.

WHAT MAKES YOU A GREAT FIT

• 7+ years of hands-on experience in SoC or subsystem RTL integration within the VLSI/Semiconductor industry.
• Strong expertise in SystemVerilog and Verilog with a solid understanding of digital design principles.
• Proven experience integrating complex SoCs, subsystems, and third-party IPs in multi-million-gate designs.
• In-depth understanding of AMBA protocols, particularly AXI4, AHB, APB, and CHI.
• Strong understanding of SoC interconnect, memory-controller interfaces, IP integration, and subsystem architecture.
• Hands-on experience with Lint, Clock Domain Crossing (CDC), Reset Domain Crossing (RDC), and UPF/CPF low-power intent checks.
• Experience with static verification and sign-off tools such as SpyGlass, Questa CDC, VC SpyGlass, or equivalent.
• Strong understanding of logical synthesis, SDC timing constraints, timing analysis, and Physical Design interfaces.
• Experience identifying and resolving timing, area, power, and integration issues in collaboration with Synthesis and Physical Design teams.
• Proven experience executing functional and timing ECOs during late-stage design cycles.
• Strong scripting and automation skills using Python, TCL, Perl, and/or Shell.
• Experience developing automated RTL build, integration, validation, and regression workflows.
• Strong debugging and diagnostic skills with the ability to resolve complex full-chip integration issues.
• Understanding of SoC design flows, verification methodologies, DFT interfaces, low-power design, and tapeout processes.
• Strong cross-functional communication and collaboration skills.
• Ability to mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership within an integration team.
• Strong ownership mindset with a demonstrated ability to drive complex semiconductor designs toward sign-off and tapeout.
• B.E./B.Tech/M.E./M.Tech in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, VLSI, or a related discipline is preferred.
