 * Be an expert at executing designs via a fully synthesised digital design flow with RTL and logic synthesis.
 * Be fully conversant with the SystemVerilog standard and digital EDA tools.
 * Be familiar with the use of constraints and the automatic place-and-route flow for the physical design.
 * Understand the importance of production test and have experience of design methods to maximize digital test coverage such as scan., * Development of functional digital blocks and contribution to complete mixed signal ASICs from definition to full production maturity.
 * Support the Product Definition team with feasibility study, product architecture definition and digital blocks design for FPGA emulation.
 * Complete RTL design in SystemVerilog of digital functions to meet all system requirements.
 * Create suitable block-level test benches for comprehensive verification of all digital blocks.
 * Create suitable behavioural models and top-level test benches for comprehensive verification and regression of all system-level functions and production test functions.
 * Complete digital synthesis with suitable physical constraints to meet all PPA requirements.
 * Define and implement DFT architecture. Perform scan insertion, ATPG and insert test points to achieve the required test coverage.
 * Oversee digital place-and-route, and ensure post-layout timing closure.
 * Generate all necessary design documentation and participate in design reviews.
 * Lead and oversee other team members to achieve the above.
