By employing the world's brightest minds, TI creates innovations that shape the future of technology. TI is helping about 100,000 customers transform the future, today. We're committed to building a better future - from the responsible manufacturing of our semiconductors, to caring for our employees, to giving back inside our communities and developing great minds. Put your talent to work with us - change the world, love your job!

What will you be doing in this role? (Responsibilities)

• Be a key team member from product definition till release to market, working closely with all functions (e.g. systems, analog design, verification, test, applications).
• Define or enhance the micro-architecture for digital blocks/top and designing them along with rest of the team.
• RTL development and verification (RTL and Gate level).
• Collaborate with analog designers on mixed-signal and DSP blocks and interfaces.
• Work closely with verification team to build the full-chip verification plan, tests. Support functional debugs and RCAs.
• Support silicon validation activities, test program development and the customer engagement and silicon/application debug needs.
• Drive architectural optimization for area, power and performance improvements for a given node.
• Address performance bottlenecks through micro-architecture.

What do we expect from you? (Mini Qualifications)

• Hands on front-end design experience of complex multi clock domain blocks.
• Ability to convert high level system requirements/changes into micro-architectural changes and then into RTL
• Ability to extract the functionality / micro-architecture of existing design even with sparse legacy documentation
• Familiarity with verification environments to be able to actively participate in functional debugs
• Good knowledge on static timing analysis and constraints debugging.
• Understand and own in detail the functional specifications of the IPs/SoC
• Ensure that design-for-test (DFT) standards are addressed by design
• Participate in and conduct design reviews. Create the necessary design documentation
• Ability to take initiatives and drive the results working with team members across time-zones
• Handling & owning design deliverables and schedule
• Bachelors / Masters in Electrical / Electronics Engineering

Preferred Skills/ Experience

• 5+ years of relevant experience
• Excellent RTL design (Verilog) skill including Lint, Simulation, Debug, Synthesis and LEC (preferably Cadence toolchain).
• Experience in identifying and implementing complex ECO in netlist.
• Experience in writing and debugging timing constraints at IP / SoC level
• Experience in silicon functional debug/RCA to map bugs to RTL. Familiarity with Si-bringup & Bench testing
• Experience in FPGA prototyping of full/parts of system would be a plus.
• Experience in digital signal processing and Matlab modeling would be a plus.
• Understanding of high-speed protocol and interfaces like CSI, DSI, MiPi, HDMI, Display Port etc
• Knowledge of PLL, SerDes, Encoders, Decoders, Video Compression, Video Encryption, I2C and SPI

Minimum requirements

• 5+ years of relevant experience
• Excellent RTL design (Verilog) skill including Lint, Simulation, Debug, Synthesis and LEC (preferably Cadence toolchain).
• Experience in identifying and implementing complex ECO in netlist.

Texas Instruments is an equal opportunity employer and supports a diverse, inclusive work environment.
