RTL Design Engineer

RTL Design Engineer - Jobs - Careers at Apple

• Designing micro-architecting digital blocks within sophisticated mixed-signal circuits
• RTL coding of blocks specified by you or others
• Participate in the design verification and bring-up of such blocks
• Writing meaningful assertions, debugging code, and otherwise interacting with the design verification team
• Participate in the lab bring-up of those circuits by writing test scripts, analyzing lab data, proposing experiments, etc.

• BS degree in technical discipline with minimum 3 years of relevant experience
• Solid understanding of mixed signal concepts, RTL design, Verilog and SystemVerilog
• Validated knowledge of front-end tools (Verilog simulators, linters, clock-domain crossing checkers)
• Validated knowledge of synthesis, static timing, DFT, is a plus
• Validated knowledge of SystemVerilog assertions, checkers, and other design verification techniques are a plus
• Knowledge of scripting languages. Perl and Python are plusses
• Strong communication and presentation skills

• Results-oriented and outstandingly hardworking
• Technical and multi-disciplinary effort
• Building of a solid foundation in logic circuits and gentle entry into understanding analog circuits
• Insight into full custom schematics for analog as well as high-speed digital circuits
• Translating functionality of such circuits into an efficient software behavioral representation
• Simulation of such code and ensuring formal equivalence between custom designs and their abstract representation
• Software methods and analysis that is increasingly important for a variety of disciplines
