About the role / Segment

Siemens EDA is looking for a C++ Software Engineer – RTL Design and Synthesis who is required to understand, design, and implement algorithm-centric solutions in high-level synthesis. The role is for an industry-leading high-level synthesis tool – Catapult-C, which takes ANSI C/C++ and SystemC inputs and generates register transfer level (RTL) code targeted to FPGAs and ASICs.

The Catapult–C tool is used by top hardware design companies for designing cutting-edge semiconductor chip designs in automotive, machine learning, wireless design, video, and image processing.

The offered position includes:

• Working on the physical design execution from C to GDS and the power estimation/optimization.
• Conducting complex analyses and debugging of results using statistics and data predictions to identify issues or areas for improvement.
• Work with customers, research partners, and academia to drive future innovation-related initiatives including the development of new scripts and flows.
• Leverage infrastructure and learning developed from such initiatives to products in Siemens EDA.
• Analyze and improve PPA for HLS-generated RTL by improving flows and methodologies.
• Participate in the specification, architecture, design, and development of features.
• Be a force for improving development processes and product quality.
• Work effectively with globally distributed engineering teams.

You will be part of the core backend synthesis team involved in research and development of HLV/HLS platform.

In this role, you will contribute to developing the industry's first C2GDS platform.

Technical Skills (Must have):

• Strong programming knowledge in C/C++ and object-oriented design skills.
• Excellent algorithm and data-structure design skills with theoretical and practical experience in implementation of complex algorithms.
• Script-programming skills with languages such as TCL, Perl, Python, Shell, etc.
• Familiarity with Unix/Linux operating systems.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities.

Technical Skills (Strongly desirable):

• RTL Synthesis
• Floorplanning
• Placement
• Physical implementation

Technical Skills (Desirable):

• Understanding/prior experience in design/implementation of EDA algorithms in the areas of logic synthesis and optimization/high-level synthesis/timing analysis/formal verification.
• Experience in hardware modeling in VHDL/Verilog/SystemC.
• Understanding of digital design for ASIC or FPGA.
• Hardware architecture and trade-offs for digital arithmetic design.
• System-level hardware modeling in areas of virtual prototyping/hardware-software co-design.
• Prior experience in working/designing of complex algorithms and optimization.
• Experience in compiler design – language parsing/abstract syntax tree optimization/transformation/loop optimizations/parallel compiler/software pipelining/register allocation.

General Skills: Strong positive attitude, good presentation and communication skills, self-driven and self-motivating, able to implement technical solutions independently, relationship building capabilities, team player.

Required Education and Experience:

• Bachelor's with 4+ years or Master's degree with 2+ years or PhD graduates (fresh or experienced) in EDA or related areas with a degree in Computer Science or equivalent.

The Ideal Candidate should demonstrate:

• Previous experience with product development or academic research.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities.
• Ability to collaborate as part of a globally distributed team.
• Fluency in English.
