What are the responsibilities and job description for the Mixed-Signal Digital Designer position at MediaTek?
MediaTek CPU team is seeking motivated professionals interested in RTL development for mixed-signal design to join our team as a Senior Digital Design Engineer.
In this role, you will collaborate closely with both the architecture modeling team and the analog design team to:
1. Develop digital designs using SystemVerilog RTL based on system architecture specifications.
2. Collaborate with the design verification team to compile functionality verification plans.
3. Provide design integration guidelines and work with upper-level integrators to resolve related integration issues.
4. Conduct front-end design quality signoff checks
5. Develop design verification testing specifications for the post-Si software team.
You will gain the opportunity to develop state-of-the-art power and performance management used in High-Performance Compute (HPC) products,
including the design of clock delivery networks (CDN) and power delivery networks (PDN) for modern CPU/GPU/NPU.
Job Responsibilities
- Understand Mixed-Signal IP Functionality: Comprehend the mixed-signal functionality and requirements through design specifications provided by the architecture owner.
- Interface Protocol Identification: Work with upper-level design integrators to identify sub-module interface protocols.
- Digital Design Development: Create quality digital designs using SystemVerilog RTL that meet the computational functions or control sequences specified in the design specifications and perform module-level verification using the provided SW-based verification environment.
- RTL Sign-Off Checks: Conduct RTL sign-off checks, including LINT, CDC, CLP, and SDC verification.
- Physical Design Collaboration: Supply necessary collateral for physical design, including SDC/UPF, and collaborate with the physical design team to perform performance-critical path analysis of the assigned design block.
- Design Functionality Validation: Work with the design verification team to ensure the design's functionality.
Requirements
- Educational Background: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
- Industrial Experience: 4 years of working experience in RTL design or mixed-signal system development.
- Digital Design Knowledge: Working knowledge of digital circuit design including but not limited to FSM, register file, memory system, bus handshake protocol, and algorithmic logic unit.
- RTL Coding Skill: Proficiency in SystemVerilog coding is required, along with working knowledge of design synthesis, power, performance, and area trade-offs.
- Communication and Teamwork: Strong communication, presentation, and teamwork skills.
- EDA Tool Proficiency: Familiarity with industry-standard EDA tools for RTL design simulation and quality check flows.
- Scripting Languages: Knowledge of scripting languages such as Tcl, Perl, and Python is a plus
