Digital IC Design Engineer (Staff or Principal)

We are looking to expand our team with a Senior Principal Digital IC Design Engineer with experience in the development of embedded MCU / DSP systems. You will develop and benchmark such systems using various types of processor cores and consult the product integration teams during the integration of these solutions into semiconductor products. As a senior engineer, you will mentor younger engineers and drive project activities.

What You’ll Do

1. Lead project activities and mentor less experienced engineers
2. Architect, specify, implement, simulate, and benchmark MCU and DSP systems as well as hardware accelerators
3. Contribute to design methodology and design flow improvements
4. Consult the product integration teams in the definition, integration, and use of these systems
5. Participate in the verification and FPGA prototyping of these systems
6. Coordinate the SDK development with the software team

What You’ll Need

1. Minimum BS / MS in Electrical Engineering or a related technical field
2. At least 12 years of relevant work experience in semiconductor product development, including engineering leadership
3. Experience with embedded CPUs (e.g. ARM Cortex, DSP), AMBA bus protocols (AHB / APB)
4. RTL design of digital IP blocks and systems in Verilog / SystemVerilog
5. Experience in technical project/task leadership
6. Knowledge of design intents (timing constraints / SDC, power intent / UPF)
7. Strong technical document writing skills
8. Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English
9. Eligibility to work in Switzerland

What Else You May Bring

1. Experience in some of the following areas is a plus:
2. Design of CPU / MCU (sub)systems, SystemRDL or IP-XACT
3. Programming in Python for automation and in C / C++ for embedded software
4. Design of accelerators and signal processing components
5. RTL to GDS flow, including logic synthesis, place-and-route, STA, power analysis
6. Advanced digital verification methodology (e.g. UVM)
7. Knowledge of French
