Senior Digital Design Engineer - IC / CMOS

About Us

We are partnered with a leading innovator in high-performance mixed-signal semiconductors; The team is looking to hire a Senior Digital Design Engineer to take technical ownership of complex digital work-packages and define architecture strategies in deep-submicron CMOS technologies.

This is a permanent working opportunity based in Paris.

Responsibilities

• Lead architectural definitions and micro-architecture specifications for complex digital blocks and SoCs.
• Drive the end-to-end design journey from RTL to Netlist, integrating high-level IPs and various digital components.
• Ensure technical excellence through rigorous LINT, CDC, and RDC checks and the authoring of SDC constraints for logical synthesis.
• Collaborate closely with DFT and Back-End teams to optimize physical implementation for optimal Power, Performance, and Area (PPA).
• Participate in hands-on silicon validation and evaluation of manufactured ICs within the measurement lab.
• Provide technical leadership in design reviews and maintain comprehensive documentation according to QA policies.

Requirements

• Master’s or PhD in Electrical Engineering with extensive experience in Digital IC & SoC design.
• Proven track record of leading technical work-packages, specifically within ARM or RISC-V platforms.
• Deep knowledge of high-speed serial interfaces such as JESD204, Ethernet, or PCIe.
• Strong understanding of mixed-signal environments, including A/D and D/A converters or RF transceivers.
• Expert proficiency in SystemVerilog, VHDL, or Verilog and standard EDA flows (Cadence, Synopsys, or Siemens).
• Highly proficient in automation scripting using Python or TCL.
