Principal AI Chip Design Engineer

Responsibilities

• Lead RTL design and implementation for AI chip SoC and subsystems.
• Own key modules such as AI accelerator control logic, DMA, NoC/interconnect, memory subsystem, die-to-die/chip-to-chip interfaces, register blocks, interrupt, clock/reset, and low-power control.
• Define microarchitecture, RTL partitioning, interfaces, and implementation plans.
• Translate architecture and microarchitecture specifications into clean, reusable, synthesizable RTL.
• Lead SoC/IP integration, bus/interconnect integration, and top-level connectivity.
• Work with verification teams on test plans, simulation debug, coverage improvement, and design quality.
• Work with physical design teams on synthesis, timing closure, area, power, congestion, and ECO issues.
• Support FPGA/emulation, silicon bring-up, performance tuning, and post-silicon debugging.
• Drive design methodology, documentation, code review, and best practices.
• Mentor junior and senior engineers and provide technical leadership across teams.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree or above in EE,Computer Engineering, CS, or related fields.
• 8+ years of experience in SoC design, RTL design, ASIC implementation, or complex IP/subsystem design.
• Strong Verilog/System Verilog RTL coding skills.
• Deep understanding of SoC architecture, including AXI/AHB/APB, NoC, DMA, memory subsystem, clock/reset, interrupt, and register design.
• Familiar with ASIC design flow, including lint, CDC/RDC, synthesis, STA, timing closure, low-power checks, formal verification, and equivalence checking.
• Strong experience in SoC/IP integration, subsystem design, and top-level RTL design.
• Strong debugging skills in simulation, waveform analysis, emulation, FPGA, or silicon bring-up.
• Experience with AI accelerator, NPU, GPU,CPU, DSP, or high-performance SoC design is preferred.
• Strong ownership, technical leadership, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
