• Contribute to scalable, coherent interconnect solutions across multiple product lines
• Collaborate with architecture, verification, and cross-functional engineering teams
• Support unit-level validation and deliver high-quality RTL to verification teams
• Develop assertions and contribute to coverage strategies
• Debug design issues during pre-silicon and post-silicon phases
• Create clear and maintainable design documentation

Preferred experience:

• Experience with RTL design using Verilog or SystemVerilog
• Background in interconnect, network-on-chip (NoC), or cache/memory subsystem design
• Understanding of processor architecture, including coherency and memory systems
• Knowledge of digital design fundamentals and high-speed hardware systems
• Experience debugging RTL or hardware systems
• Familiarity with power, performance, and area tradeoffs
• Exposure to scripting or programming languages such as Python, C, or C++
• Awareness of design-for-test (DFT) concepts
