About the Role We are looking for a Senior RTL Design Engineer / Lead to own micro‑architecture, RTL development, integration, and synthesis for complex IP and ARM CPU subsystems. In this role, you will drive RTL quality, collaborate with worldwide (WW) teams on specifications and deliverables, and work closely with DV and PD teams to ensure thoroughly verified, timing‑clean designs. Key Responsibilities Define micro‑architecture for complex IP blocks and ARM CPU subsystems based on high‑level specifications. Develop high‑quality RTL (coding and integration) and perform synthesis for complex IP and CPU subsystems. Run RTL quality checks (e.g., Lint, CDC, LEC/equivalence checks) and ensure RTL is robust, reusable, and signoff‑ready. Generate and refine timing constraints; collaborate with Physical Design teams to ensure RTL meets timing and implementation goals. Work with DV teams to define test plans, review coverage, and thoroughly verify RTL functionality. Collaborate with DFT teams to help improve test coverage and support DFT insertion requirements. Partner with worldwide cross‑functional teams to align on specifications, interfaces, and delivery milestones. Use strong debugging and scripting skills to analyze issues, automate flows, and improve design productivity.Main Requirements and QualificationsBachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, or a related field.8+ years of industry experience in RTL design of complex IP and/or CPU subsystems.Strong understanding of high‑performance ARM CPU architecture and familiarity with recent high‑performance ARM cores.Expertise in RTL coding and integration (SystemVerilog/Verilog) and synthesis.Proven experience across front‑end quality flows: Lint, CDC, LEC/equivalence, and related checks.Good understanding and hands‑on experience in related domains such as DV, DFT, and timing closure.Ability to generate timing constraints and work closely with PD teams to achieve timing closure.Strong debugging and scripting skills (e.g., Perl, Python, Tcl).Ability to collaborate with DFT teams to enhance test coverage.Experience working with worldwide, cross‑functional teams and strong communication skills.Preferred QualificationsPrior experience in RTL integration of ARM CPU subsystems.Experience with multi‑power‑domain designs and low‑power methodologies.Prior silicon debug experience (post‑silicon bring‑up and issue resolution).If you are passionate about high‑performance CPU and complex IP design and want to lead impactful projects in a global environment, we encourage you to apply on LinkedIn or via the MediaTek careers site.Salary range: $152,400 - $254,500 annually.Employee may be eligible for performance bonus, short and long term incentive programs.
