Responsibilities:

• Product Definition: Play a critical role in defining new products as a key member of the cross-functional team. Analyze trade-offs, drive closure on all essential aspects, and finalize specifications for new programs to ensure competitive and timely market launches.
• Architecture & Design: Architect, design, and integrate low-power digital circuits for mixed-signal power management products in advanced process nodes. Develop detailed specifications for execution by medium-to-large teams.
• RTL Design: Lead and oversee digital RTL design, ensuring compliance with timing, area, power, and relevant standards specifications.
• Design Flow Participation: Participate in all phases of the digital and mixed-signal design flow, including micro-architecture, design partitioning, RTL Verilog/SystemVerilog design, timing constraint generation, synthesis, and interaction with P&R teams. Perform timing analysis, LINT, CDC, RDC, and UPF.
• Verification: Work closely with analog and digital verification engineers to develop complex test scenarios for pre-silicon verification.
• AMS, DMS & Behavioral Models: Support the analog team in developing AMS, SystemVerilog, or Verilog-Real behavioral models.
• Integration & Simulation: Integrate designs at the top level and conduct block- and top-level simulations.
• DFT & Layout: Contribute to DFT strategy and implementation, review test case development, and collaborate with P&R teams to generate layouts that meet timing, area, and power requirements.
• Debug & Documentation: Assist with debugging top-level test benches and running RTL and gate-level simulations. Develop comprehensive chip-level and block design documentation.
• Design Reviews: Lead and actively participate in key design reviews, ensuring the completion of various checklists.
• Problem Solving: Document device errata, develop work-around solutions, and implement engineering changes as needed.
• Innovation & Strategy: Uphold and inspire high standards for cost/performance, robustness, and quality. Contribute to product strategy, definition, roadmap, and planning in collaboration with key stakeholders.
• Cultural Leadership: Embody and promote Renesas' culture and values.
