Senior RTL Engineer, IO Die and Interconnect IP

The role

You will develop RTL for the IO die and integrate high-speed interconnect IP into chiplet-based architectures. This role involves owning microarchitecture for IO subsystems and collaborating with hardware and software teams to meet performance and power requirements.

What you will do

• Develop RTL (Verilog/SystemVerilog) for the IO die
• Integrate UCIe, PCIe, and other high-speed interconnect IP
• Modify and customize PCIe and other interconnect IP
• Define and implement die-to-die and chiplet interfaces using UCIe
• Own the microarchitecture and RTL for IO subsystems
• Collaborate with verification engineers to develop test plans and debug issues
• Work with architecture, PHY/SerDes, physical design, and software teams
• Make design decisions across performance, power, latency, bandwidth, and cost
• Develop and automate IP integration and RTL assembly flows
• Communicate with stakeholders to ensure timely delivery

Required qualifications

• Bachelor’s with 5+ years, or Master’s with 3+ years, or PhD's with 0+ years of industry experience
• Strong background in microarchitecture and RTL design for complex SoC and die integration
• 5+ years of experience in RTL development (Verilog/SystemVerilog) for high-speed interconnect and IO subsystems
• Hands-on experience integrating and configuring interconnect IP such as PCIe, CXL, UCIe, and die-to-die interfaces
• Experience modifying or customizing third-party interconnect IP
• Familiarity with UCIe and chiplet-based, multi-die architectures and die-to-die interconnect
• Solid understanding of PCIe/CXL protocol stacks and the PIPE interface
• Experience with SoC integration methodologies, IP packaging, and on-chip interface protocols such as AXI, ACE, CHI, or APB
• Proficiency in scripting (Tcl, Python, or Perl)
• Experience in AI/ML workloads
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills

Nice to have

• Familiarity with agentic AI tools and frameworks
