Job Duties:

Responsible for digital design and verification of image sensor and SoC systems, including IP design, integration, analysis, and validation. Design and verify image sensor control and processing functions, as well as high-speed interfaces such as USB and MIPI. Perform full-chip integration, verification, and system-level validation following standard ASIC design flows. Work closely with back-end teams on floorplanning, timing closure, static timing analysis (STA), and design-for-test (DFT). Design and integrate ISP data paths according to PRD/design specifications and overall SoC architecture. Execute ASIC implementation tasks including RTL coding, simulation, synthesis, formal verification, and DFT using industry-standard EDA tools such as Synopsys PrimeTime, Cadence Virtuoso, Design Compiler, and Integrator. Conduct chip bring-up, silicon validation, debugging, and performance tuning. Participate in FPGA prototyping and validation activities. Develop verification environments and models using SystemVerilog, SVA, Python, and Perl, and support hardware/software co-simulation. Collaborate with sensor, analog, algorithm, and application engineers on system design, module-level architecture, RTL implementation, micro-architecture design, image tuning, and product qualification. Prepare and maintain architecture, register, interface, and design documentation throughout the development lifecycle.
