Role: RTL Design Engineer - Wireless SoC
Location: Remote
Duration: 6 months
Required Skills: RTL Design Engineer - Wireless SoC
Job Description:
We are seeking an experienced RTL Design Engineer to work on next-generation wireless SoC development. The ideal candidate will design and implement high-performance digital blocks and work closely with architecture, analog/mixed-signal, and verification teams to deliver production-quality silicon.
Key Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and verify digital blocks for wireless SoCs using SystemVerilog/Verilog
  • Translate architectural and algorithmic specifications into synthesizable RTL
  • Implement DSP blocks such as filtering, FFT/IFFT, beamforming, etc.
  • Develop RTL for SoC components including interfaces, clock/reset, power management, and debug logic
  • Work with internal and external IP integration into chip-level designs
  • Collaborate with AMS teams on digital-analog interfaces, calibration logic, and control systems
  • Drive PPA (power, performance, area) optimization and support timing closure with backend teams
  • Participate in design reviews, integration, synthesis, and timing closure activities
  • Support silicon bring-up and lab validation of digital subsystems

Required Skills
  • 5+ years of hands-on RTL design experience (SystemVerilog / Verilog)
  • Strong understanding of micro-architecture and RTL implementation from specs
  • Experience in DSP hardware implementation (filtering, FFT, etc.)
  • Knowledge of SoC design flows: CDC, power domains, timing constraints, formal verification
  • Experience with synthesis, linting, simulation, and STA tools
  • Understanding of DFT concepts (scan, BIST)
  • Strong debugging and problem-solving skills
  • Good communication and ability to work in cross-functional teams

Preferred Skills
  • Experience in wireless SoC domains (Wi-Fi, cellular, mmWave, satellite, etc.)
  • RTL design of datapath, FIFO, DMA, arbitration, and SoC bus (AXI/AHB)
  • DSP modeling experience (MATLAB / Python / C++) and RTL conversion
  • Post-silicon debug and chip bring-up experience
  • Exposure to analog-mixed signal interfaces and calibration logic
  • Experience in distributed/global team environments
