Summary: The Digital Front-End Engineer role encompasses various specializations including CPU/BUS/Peripheral Integration, DSP/Custom Dataflow, and IP Integration/NoC/DFT. Candidates are expected to have extensive experience in digital front-end design, integration of complex systems, and proficiency in Verilog/SystemVerilog. The position is fully remote, allowing for flexibility in work arrangements. Strong integration and debugging skills are essential across all specializations.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and integrate CPU cores, bus architectures, and peripheral IPs into SoC or ASIC designs.
- Develop and optimize DSP pipelines and custom dataflow architectures.
- Assemble multi-IP subsystems and integrate third-party IPs.
- Configure and integrate NoC/interconnect fabrics.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with verification, physical design, and DFT teams.
Key Skills:
- 5+ years of digital front-end / RTL design experience.
- Experience with ARM AMBA protocols (AXI / AHB / APB).
- Strong subsystem-level integration and debug skills.
- Proficiency in Verilog / SystemVerilog.
- Hands-on experience with DSP pipelines and MAC engines.
- General DFT awareness at the SoC integration level.
