ASIC Design Engineer

We are seeking a motivated ASIC Design Engineer to support the development of digital ASIC components for printing systems. The role involves working closely with experienced engineers and contributing to design implementation, verification, and system integration activities.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop functional blocks and subsystems of digital ASICs from specification through RTL implementation, verification, silicon validation, and qualification.
• Support silicon validation and debugging activities under the guidance of senior engineers.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to align on specifications, conduct design reviews, and maintain clear technical documentation.
• Contribute ideas for future ASIC design improvements and innovation efforts.
• Develop an understanding of Inkjet and LaserJet print architecture and data path requirements to support effective ASIC design and integration.
• Support FPGA or software-based prototyping of ASIC designs to enable pre-silicon and post-silicon firmware development and system verification.
• Contribute to design methodology improvements and tool automation to enhance engineering efficiency and design quality.

Requirements

• BS or MS degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field, with a focus on VLSI or digital design, and a minimum of 3 years of ASIC or SoC design experience.

• Familiarity with the digital ASIC/SoC design flow from RTL development through silicon characterization.

• Familiarity with Synopsys and Cadence EDA tools for simulation, synthesis, static timing analysis, formal verification, and assertion-based verification.

• Proficiency in Verilog/SystemVerilog and familiarity with scripting or programming languages such as Python, Perl, C, or C++.

• Familiarity with version control and collaborative development workflows using Git or GitHub.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, and a willingness to learn.

• Good communication and teamwork skills.

• Working knowledge of electronic components, printed circuit assembly design, and common lab test equipment is an advantage.

• Desirable experience includes knowledge or exposure to Inkjet or LaserJet printing technology, FPGA design with Xilinx or Intel/Altera tools, design database management and flow automation, ARM-based processor or subsystem design with AMBA/AXI/AHB/APB familiarity, memory and storage subsystems (DDR, Flash, eMMC), and the use of AI tools to improve design, verification, debugging, and automation.
