Digital SoC expert designer - Technical leader (consultant)

• Collaborate with system architect team, digital back-end team and embedded SW and validation as well as the other project stakeholders.
• Lead RTL development for ASIC and FPGA. Supervise the verification planning and activities (possibly including mixed-signal projects).
• Define and/or propose (new) way of working to maximize the efficiency of the design process.
• Contribute to high-quality reports and documentation., We offer you an exciting temporary assignment in which you will be part of a community that makes the impossible possible. Together, we shape the technology that will define the society of tomorrow.

• MSc or PhD in electronics engineering with 10+ years of relevant experience in ASIC design.

• Structural way of working and ability to develop and manage activity planning is required.
• Experience working closely with (internal or external) stakeholders is required.
• Strong experience with digital circuit design in (System) Verilog is required. * Experience with SoC top level design and/or sub-systems is required; including low power techniques.
• Experience with digital verification is preferred: plan definition, verification methodologies, code/functional coverage, constrained random verification, verification plan execution and tracking.
• Knowledge of high-level synthesis methodologies is a plus.
• Experience with Cadence IC design tools is preferred.
• Knowledge of the FPGA-development flow is a plus.
• Experience with scripting languages like TCL, Matlab and Python is required.
