The Cloud and Data Center Power BU seeks a highly motivated, talented, and experienced digital design engineer (verification experience is a plus) to support our business unit at ADI’s Catania Office. The Digital Cloud Power group (between Catania and Dublin offices) comprises 10 digital engineers focused on the digital aspect of our devices. We are a team of very experienced professionals merged with young talents and new graduates who joined our ranks this year. This fast-growing part of the ecosystem provides rich opportunities for future growth and development.

Job Description:

As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to:

• Be a key member of the Digital local team to define the architectures of new products and/or key digital modules. Decomposing system-level requirements to a set of requirements and specifications at the digital hardware level.
• Studying the new top-edge power IC specifications and developing the design (and relative documentation) for one or more digital modules and/or top-level.
• Developing Verilog/System Verilog RTL code. Performing coding rules and conformance checks.
• Work with digital and analog verification teams on verification plans, test cases, and analyzing test results.
• Develop a test (on a UVM-based environment and/or Formal) for the designed RTL module/modules and verify it. If necessary, develop a digital model of analog blocks, verification IPs or a script to automate some phases of the verification flow.
• Modelling/simulating/debugging digital circuits.
• Implement the RTL into a new generation FPGA family for testing and debugging.
• The successful candidate will work closely with other cross-functional teams to define, implement, and introduce products to our customers. Teams include business, applications, product definition, product engineering, layout, test engineering, project management, CAD/EDA, etc.
