Broadcom is seeking a highly experienced and accomplished Principal ASIC Chip Lead to lead the development of cutting-edge System-on-Chip (SoC) solutions. This key role requires a deep, end-to-end understanding of the entire ASIC architecture, design, and verification flow—from initial concept and RTL development through GDSII tape-out and into mass production.

Responsibilities:

• Manage cross-functional project teams while interfacing directly with a tier-1 customer. Must have soft skills to manage and diffuse high stakes.

• Work with architecture team to define micro-architecture for various design blocks & subsequently Verilog RTL development

• Run various frontend tools to check for linting, clock domain crossing, Low Power design, and checks using UPF/CPF flow

• Work with verification team to collaborate on test plan, coverage plan, and coverage closure

• Work with physical design team on design constraints and timing closure

• Work with firmware and systems team and help with bring-up on FPGA and Silicon platforms

• Work with operations team to bring silicon into mass production

• Willing to learn new areas and flexible in taking on any of the above tasks to help meet project goals

• Experience with Low Power Design & design verification techniques, Multiple Power domains, UPF/CPF understanding and usage

• Good knowledge of EDA tools

• Willingness to work on any design tools/flow/methodologies, including Design-Verification as needed during project development and not strictly limited to RTL design work

Desired Skills:

• Solid understanding of communication basics

• Experience with implementation of arithmetic hardware (fixed point, floating point, transcendental operations)

• Familiar with signal processing and numerical analysis tools like MATLAB

• Experience and understanding of DSP Designs using MATLAB/Simulink is a definite advantage, but not limited to DSP designs

• Able to work in a lab with logic analyzers and oscilloscopes during Silicon/FPGA bring up

• Experience with C/C++ and Scripting languages (Perl/Tcl)
