Staff / Senior Staff Engineer - Digital Design (RTL Design)

About the role

Infineon is looking for a Staff or Senior Staff Engineer in Digital Design within its Research & Development team. The role combines creativity with technical expertise to shape the future of technology through groundbreaking projects, focusing on sensor and other mixed-signal intellectual property (IP).

Key responsibilities

• Work with system engineers to define IP specifications, architecture and test concepts.
• Specify, perform RTL design and verify digital circuits to deliver high performance, low power and efficient implementation for sensor and other mixed-signal IPs.
• Perform RTL design and behavioural model coding, logic synthesis, static timing analysis and structural checks using LEC and Spyglass (linting, CDC and RDC).
• Carry out DFT and power integrity activities such as scan insertion, ATPG and power analysis.
• Work with physical designers to achieve timing closure and ECO fixes where needed.
• Conduct design reviews, support documentation, and help verification engineers define test items.
• Support roadmap formulation for sensor IPs and help view generation engineers verify IP views.

Required profile

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or a similar field with a focus on electronics.
• Minimum 5-10+ years of professional experience in digital design.
• Proven ability to formulate digital design architectures and work in a team of designers.
• Good English communication and interpersonal skills, and strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.

Required skills

• Proficiency in System Verilog and/or Verilog/VHDL for RTL design and verification.
• Familiarity with the full digital design flow, including LEC, Spyglass, synthesis constraints, ATPG and primetime analysis.
• Understanding of IP development flow, chip integration, timing analysis and testability.
• Knowledge of mixed-signal IPs such as ADC, PMU, oscillators and temperature sensors is an advantage.
• Basic knowledge of safety and security standards such as ISO 26262 and ISO 21434 is an advantage.
