Requirements

  • Looking for a candidate with 2 to 6 years of hands-on experience in micro-architecting and developing complex IPs.
  • Expertise in digital design, VLSI concepts, and experience in creating power/area-efficient IPs across multiple clock domains are essential.
  • Proficiency in RTL coding and familiarity with RTL QA flows such as PLDRC, CDC, and CLP (optional) is expected.
  • Candidates should be capable of proposing design alternatives to meet area/power/performance specifications and presenting these options for review.
  • Experience in leading, guiding, or managing junior team members is advantageous.
  • Repeated success in taking IP designs from requirements to silicon is required.
  • While not mandatory, having developed IPs for wireless technologies (WLAN, LTE, NR, BT, UWB, etc.) or past HLS experience would be beneficial.


Role/Responsibility

  • You will be responsible for owning and leading one of the critical and complex WLAN PHY IPs, ensuring alignment with the company's strategic goals and contributing to Qualcomm's leadership in the WiFi market.

  • You will be responsible for gathering requirements, uArch and delivering quality RTL (and/or HLS) after all the required RTL QA checks (Lint, CDC etc).
  • Additionally, you will be responsible for identifying power/area/performance improvements and propose solutions for the same.
  • Develop timing constraints, working with implementation/PD teams in resolving any timing issues.
  • Work closely with cross functional teams like Verification/Emulation/Software/Systems teams and participate in pre/post Silicon and end customer debugs.


Skills

  • Must have: Proficient in Verilog RTL coding, uArch, CDC check, PLDRC, Timing constraints, Python/Perl. Experience in design/debugging complex data-path/control-path IPs. Good communication, analytical & leadership skills.
