Staff SoC Design Engineer

Role Summary

As a key player on the Design team, you will participate in the development of the SoC CPU complex component (CPU, NOC, memory, and peripherals) for Aeva’s 4-D Lidar processing chip. You will be responsible for implementing and/or integrating sub-components of the SOC.

What you'll be doing:

• Develop sub-components of the SOC CPU complex.  
• Work with third-party IP providers including ARM. 
• Design and implement Aeva specific sub-components.
• Implement additional SOC functionality including functional safety and robustness functions. 
• Focus on developing efficient, highly reliable, highly available, robust functionality.
• Work with Architects, design engineers and verification engineers, and System software teams to ensure that the SOC meets its functional, performance, and power targets. 

What you'll have:

• 12+ years of experience in design and verification of advanced ARM-based SOCs
• Experience with ARM-based SOC design. Ability to achieve high performance and low power targets.
• Experience writing Verilog RTL Code.
• Working experience and knowledge in AMBA protocols, CoreSight Debugger, LPDDR, Ethernet, MIPI, and high-speed serdes.
• Proficient in debugging complex SOC or CPU core designs
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Ability to collaborate deeply with cross-functional leads and management teams
• Ability to deliver results in a very fast-moving environment
• Desire to learn & implement groundbreaking new processes and methodology for continuous improvement 

Nice to haves:

• Experience in pre-silicon validation on emulation platforms such as Cadence Palladium, Mentor Veloce, Synopsys Zebu 
• Post-silicon bring-up and validation planning and execution
• Diagnostics Firmware development and validation
