Principal ASIC Design Engineer – Digital Design

Primary Location: Hyderabad

Role Summary: Role:

We are seeking an experienced RTL Designer with strong expertise in micro-architecture development, RTL design, integration, and implementation of complex digital blocks/subsystems. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of translating architectural specifications into high-quality RTL, driving designs from concept through synthesis and silicon bring-up, and collaborating closely with architecture, verification, DFT, physical design, firmware, and system teams.

The role requires deep knowledge of System Verilog/Verilog RTL design, digital design fundamentals, clock/reset architectures, low-power design techniques, and performance-driven implementation. The candidate should be capable of owning IP/block-level development, resolving functional and timing issues, supporting verification and implementation activities, and ensuring delivery of robust, power-efficient, and high-performance designs for next-generation AI inference accelerators.

Job Responsibility
