Digital IP Design, Staff Engineer
Seeking a highly motivated and innovative digital design engineer with knowledge of DDR and wide-spectrum knowledge of generic IP design methodology.
The candidate would be working as part of a highly experienced DDR controller design and verification team, targeting the current and next generation DDR technology, such as HBM4, DDR5, LPDDR5. Solid theoretical and practical background in AXI, CHI, CRYPTO and RAS is a solid plus.
The position offers an excellent opportunity to work with a professional team of digital engineers responsible for delivering high-end designs from specification development to performing functional design, performance tests down to successful IP releases.
The controller IP development is very dynamic and provides an endless list of challenges. This work is very challenging, not only given the constant technological changes but also given the ownership and the need to charter unknown waters.
