## Description

Join the Design Engineering team as Engineer I-Design supporting semiconductor architecture, RTL and circuit design, integration, verification, performance, power, area, documentation, and product lifecycle. This entry-level role is ideal for recent graduates or candidates with a foundational understanding of semiconductor or electronic design, RTL, digital or mixed-signal circuits, architecture, simulation, synthesis, integration, or a closely related area.

In this role, you will complete defined assignments with appropriate technical guidance, partner with relevant technical and business stakeholders, and help deliver reliable, high-quality engineering or service outcomes and continuous improvement.

Responsibilities:

 * Develop and sustain semiconductor architectures, RTL, circuits, IP, interfaces, subsystems, and design collateral.
 * Translate product, system, performance, power, area, reliability, test, manufacturing, and schedule needs into design requirements and plans.
 * Support analysis of specifications, simulations, timing, power, area, integration, defects, risks, dependencies, and technical tradeoffs.
 * Debug design, simulation, integration, verification, implementation, and product issues; root-cause analysis within approved scope.
 * Review requirements, architectures, RTL, circuits, models, constraints, results, changes, and release evidence for technical quality.
 * Drive design reuse, automation, quality, reliability, efficiency, and continuous improvement.
 * Coordinate outcomes across architecture, design, verification, DFT, implementation, package, product, test, manufacturing, and CAD teams.
 * Maintain specifications, design records, review evidence, configuration, and lifecycle documentation.
