  • Proficiency with hardware (RTL) design in Verilog, System Verilog or VHDL.
  • Attention to detail and a focus on high-quality design.
  • Ability to work well with others and a belief that engineering is a team sport.
  • A Bachelor's or Master's degree in EE, CE, CS or a related technical discipline, or equivalent experience.

Nice to have:

  • Knowledge of RISC-V architecture.
  • Experience with Scala and/or Chisel.
  • Understanding of IP verification tools and methodologies such as UVM and Formal.
  • Knowledge of at least one object-oriented and/or functional programming language.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
