In short

QT Technologies Ireland Limited is seeking experienced digital design engineers for their Mixed-Signal IP (MSIP) team in Cork, Ireland. The role involves designing high-performance, low-power mixed-signal IPs for various Qualcomm products, requiring expertise in ASIC design flow from micro-architecture to physical implementation.

Responsibilities

  • Architecture, design, and implementation of digital sections of mixed-signal IPs (SerDes, DDR, PLL, DAC, ADC, Sensors, etc.)
  • Apply computer architecture, digital signal processing (DSP), and optimization techniques for improving power, performance, and area (PPA) of IPs
  • Run full suite of ASIC design tools (lint checking, CDC, DFT, synthesis, FV, STA, etc.) to validate and implement the design
  • Work with design verification (DV) team to define test plans, verify the design, and fix bugs
  • Work with physical design (PD) team for physical implementation of the design
  • Create design specifications and documentations
  • Work with testing team for silicon bring-up and debug

Requirements

  • Master's degree in electrical engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in ASIC digital design, including micro-architecture and RTL design
  • Experience working with various front-end ASIC tools such as Design Compiler, Fusion Compiler, Modelsim, VCS, Spyglass, and primetime.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to contribute strongly within a high-performance team
  • Bachelor's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 4+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
  • Master's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 3+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
  • PhD in Science, Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience in low-power digital design
  • Experience in computer architecture, digital signal processing, and algorithm design
  • Experience in scripting languages (Python, Perl)
  • Experience with at least one mixed-signal IP, such as SerDes (USB, PCIe, MIPI, UFS), DDR PHY, Timing circuitries (PLL, DLL, FLL), Data Convertors (DAC, ADC), or sensors

Benefits

  • Salary, stock and performance related bonus
  • Maternity/Paternity Leave
  • Employee stock purchase scheme
  • Matching pension scheme
  • Education Assistance
  • Relocation and immigration support (if needed)
  • Life, Medical, Income and Travel Insurance
