RTL Design Engineer – ASIC / SoC

Hi

We are hiring a hands-on ASIC RTL engineer with strong RTL coding skills who owns micro-architecture and RTL development from spec to silicon. This role is about writing real RTL that goes into production chips.

Job Location - Bangalore

What youll do

Define and own micro-architecture

Write, review, and own high-quality synthesizable RTL code in SystemVerilog / Verilog

Build and integrate SoC or large subsystem blocks

Drive timing, power, and area closure with physical design teams

Lead design reviews, debug issues, and support silicon bring-up and post-silicon validation

Work closely with DV on test plans, assertions, and coverage

FPGA/emulation may be used only as a secondary validation aid

What were looking for

8+ years of hands-on ASIC RTL coding experience

(FPGA experience does not count toward this requirement)

Multiple production ASIC tapeouts with clear ownership

Strong RTL coding and micro-architecture ownership (non-negotiable)

Solid understanding of clock/reset design and low-power techniques (UPF, retention, isolation)

Experience with AMBA protocols: AXI, ACE, AHB, APB

Proven collaboration with synthesis, PnR, DFT, ECO, and timing-closure teams

Direct silicon bring-up experience for owned blocks

Good to have

Exposure to coherency, cache/memory subsystems, DDR, PCIe, security or crypto blocks

SVA for design-level assertions

Tcl/Python scripting to improve RTL productivity

What wont be considered

FPGA-only or FPGA-heavy roles

Lint/CDC-only, integration-only, or tool-running profiles

Pure management or architect-only roles without recent hands-on RTL work

Cheers,

Shahid
