ASIC Developer
About The Position
Join Ericsson’s Accelerator IP team in Austin, Texas, as a Senior RTL Design Engineer developing custom microarchitecture accelerators for EMCA L1 processing. The role owns major IP blocks from initial specification and microarchitecture through RTL creation, synthesis, and delivery, translating complex DSP, FEC, and other L1 processing algorithms into high-performance hardware. The engineer makes design trade-offs among power, area, and throughput and works closely with verification, backend/physical design, and architecture teams. The position is described as hybrid with on-site work and offers autonomy and technical impact in a small, close-knit team.
Requirements
- Several years of RTL design experience in complex ASIC/IP environments.
- Expertise in SystemVerilog and Verilog.
- Mastery of end-to-end ASIC flows, including coding, linting, clock-domain crossing (CDC), synthesis, and timing closure.
- Ability to translate DSP, FEC, or other L1 processing algorithms into high-performance hardware.
- Ability to work on detailed RTL implementation and high-level architecture strategy.
- Collaborative approach and ability to thrive in an intense, creative, close-knit team environment.
Responsibilities
- Transform high-level architectural vision into reliable, high-performance RTL using SystemVerilog and Verilog.
- Own major IP blocks end-to-end, including specification, microarchitecture, RTL creation, synthesis, and delivery.
- Serve as a technical lead and point of contact for verification, backend/physical design, and architecture teams.
- Optimize designs to balance power, area, and throughput.
- Lead critical design decisions for next-generation telecom hardware.
Benefits
- Annual bonus opportunity through a short-term variable compensation plan, subject to eligibility and applicable rules.
- Choice of three medical plan options and a dental plan option, with company credits toward premiums for employees and eligible covered dependents.
- 401(k) plan with an automatic 3% company contribution and matching contributions of up to 4% when the employee contributes at least 5% of eligible pay.
- Basic life insurance and accidental death and dismemberment coverage, plus short-term and long-term disability coverage.
- Option to participate in Ericsson’s Stock Purchase Plan.
- Minimum 15 days of accrued vacation, up to 3 personal days per year, 11 annual holidays, 8 hours of volunteer time, and 80 hours of sick time annually; paid time off is prorated based on start date.
- Up to 16 weeks of paid maternity leave and 6 weeks of paid parental or adoption leave at 100% of pay.
