## Description

As a Staff Digital Design Engineer in the Digital Business Unit, you will lead complex ASIC design projects and provide technical leadership for system-level architecture. Working with an experienced, cross-functional team, you will translate customer and system requirements into robust digital implementations for advanced technologies spanning AI datacenter power control, next-generation memory-test solutions, industrial automation, and consumer audio and health-monitoring products. You will influence product direction, guide methodology improvements, and lead small technical teams from architecture through implementation and signoff., * Define and develop system-level architectures and microarchitectures for complex digital ASIC designs

 * Design synthesizable SystemVerilog RTL for functions such as arithmetic DSP, algorithm accelerators, serial interfaces, and processor-subsystem memory and bus controllers

 * Lead design simulation, debug, integration, and technical reviews for complex digital design projects

 * Define constraints and drive synthesis, static timing analysis, lint, CDC, and related implementation and signoff flows using industry-leading CAD tools

 * Partner with physical design engineers, provide implementation guidance, and monitor IC layout progress through closure

 * Collaborate with system engineers to interpret customer specifications and translate them into clear, verifiable design requirements

 * Work with firmware and API engineers to define logic configurations, use cases, and hardware-software debug strategies

 * Guide methodology improvements and best practices across the organization

 * Influence product direction and technical roadmaps through sound engineering judgment and tradeoff analysis

 * Mentor engineers, lead small technical teams, and help develop technical talent
