Senior Staff Digital Design Engineer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United States.

📋 Description

• Lead the digital design of cutting-edge RAIN RFID Reader ICs from architecture to tapeout and silicon validation.

• Create micro-architectures, executable models, and RTL for intricate digital and mixed-signal IC subsystems.

• Collaborate with chip architects and RF/analog engineers on mixed-signal architectures, digital control loops, calibration engines, and analog-IP interface logic.

• Work alongside physical design and verification teams to achieve timing closure, signal integrity, and ensure the delivery of production-ready Reader ICs.

• Establish and execute DFT strategies, which include scan insertion, BIST, and boundary scan.

• Collaborate with CAD/EDA engineers to enhance ASIC/SoC design flows, methodologies, and best practices.

• Improve existing RAIN RFID Reader products by adding features, enhancing performance, and optimizing power consumption.

• Assist in post-silicon bring-up and debugging by correlating RTL and simulation results with laboratory measurements.

⛳️ Requirements

• A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering with 12 years of experience, or 8 years with a Master's degree, or 5 years with a PhD is required.

• Over 12 years of RTL design experience.

• Experience in at least 2–3 complete tapeout cycles, ideally with mixed-signal or RF-integrated ICs.

• Strong expertise in digital logic design, micro-architecture definition, synthesis, and achieving timing closure.

• Proficient in Verilog and SystemVerilog for RTL development, behavioral modeling, and verification.

• Familiarity with CDC analysis, clock gating, low-power design (UPF/CPF), and static timing analysis.

• Experience with UVM-based verification, functional coverage, assertion-based verification, and DFT implementation (scan, MBIST, ATPG).

• Scripting skills in Python, Perl, or UNIX shell.

• Capability to lead technical workstreams, mentor junior engineers, and communicate effectively across analog, digital, and systems disciplines.

• Compliance with applicable U.S. export control regulations; additional national-identity documentation may be required.

🏝️ Benefits

• Additional rewards may comprise merit increases, annual bonuses, and stock options.

• Sales incentives might be available for specific roles.

• Healthcare benefits for employees based in the U.S.

• 401(k) plan with company matching.

• Competitive benefits package.

• Support for remote work arrangements.

• Weekly Q&A sessions with the executive team.

• Open paid-time-off policy.

• Support for work/life balance.

• Reasonable accommodations for individuals with disabilities.
