Senior Asic Design Engineer

Cisco Silicon One (#CiscoSiliconOne) brings together networking, compute and storage all in a single system. Come join us and take part in shaping Cisco's revolutionary solutions by designing, developing and testing some of the most complex ASICs being developed in the industry with the opportunity to get full exposure to all aspects of the systems and applications we build (Silicon, Hardware, Software, Security etc.). Our Hardware and Software solutions are tightly coupled with the development cycles that give us an unparalleled advantage in enabling our customers adopt the latest what technology can offer. As part of Cisco Silicon One (#CiscoSiliconOne) our team develops complex, high-performance, feature-rich ASICs used in Cisco's networking products and third-party custom-built hardware solutions.

What You'll Do

• Be part of the development organization as an Senior ASIC Design Engineer with primary focus on RTL Design.
• Create micro-architecture specifications and participate in reviews.
• Implement Verilog RTL to meet timing and performance requirements.
• Help define, evolve, and support our design methodology.
• Collaborate with the verification team on as-needed basis to address design bugs and close code coverage.
• Work closely with physical design team to close design timing and place-and-route issues.
• Triage, debug, and root cause simulation, software bring-up, and customer failures.
• Perform diagnostic and post silicon validation tests in the lab.

Who You'll Work With

You will work with front-end RTL Design and Verification teams and Architects to understand chip architecture. You'll work with SDK and Software teams as part of ASIC development to create a seamless handshake between hardware and software functionalities and qualify use-case requirements. You'll also work with systems-testing teams as part of post-silicon validation efforts to bring-up, debug and qualify the ASIC in deployment-mode applications.
