Rtl Design Lead - Ip Design

AMD AMD · Semiconductors · Bangalore, India · Engineering

This role is for an RTL Design Lead at AMD, focusing on front-end design and integration of IP and subsystems for computing and graphics. It involves leading a team, ensuring first-pass silicon success, and collaborating with various engineering teams. The role requires expertise in RTL design, quality checks, and understanding of SoC design flows, power management, and embedded processors.

What you'd actually do

  1. Design of IP and subsystems with integration of AMD and other 3rd party IPs
  2. Perform quality checks (lint, CDC, and power rule checks) of power-gated digital designs
  3. Work collaboratively with other members of the IP team to support design verification, implementation (synthesis, constraints, static timing analysis), and delivery to SOC
  4. Work in partnership with SOC teams to support the IP at SOC level, including connectivity, DFT, verification, physical design, firmware, and post-silicon bring-up

Skills

Required

  • verilog/system verilog RTL logic design of high-speed, multi-clock digital designs
  • Verilog lint tools (Spyglass)
  • verilog simulation tools (VCS)
  • Clock domain crossing (CDC) tools
  • Detailed understanding of SoC design flows
  • Understanding of IP/SS/SoC Power Management techniques – Power Gating, Clock Gating
  • Experience with embedded processors
  • Experience with data fabric architectures (NoC)
  • Outstanding interaction skills
  • Ability to work with multi-level functional teams across various geographies
  • Outstanding problem-solving and analytical skills
  • Bachelors degree in Computer Engineering/Electrical Engineering plus 12 years full-time experience in IP hardware design, or Masters degree plus 8 years experience in same

Nice to have

  • leading teams
  • developing RTL for SoC subsystems from architectural specification to silicon
  • integrating multiple IPs
  • performing quality checks
  • working collaboratively with the IP/SoC team
