SoC Logic Design Engineer

About the Job

Join Altera, a pioneer in programmable logic solutions, where innovation meets practicality. We empower system, semiconductor, and technology companies to rapidly and cost-effectively differentiate and excel in their markets. Our legacy of innovation is matched by our commitment to our clients, whom we serve through a robust distribution network and a dedicated sales force. Our portfolio spans programmable logic products, acceleration platforms, software, and IP, all designed to accelerate the pace of innovation.

The Processing, Security, and Configuration Design team is responsible for delivering the high-performance processing and security subsystems and we are seeking experienced SoC Logic Design Engineers to join our team to help Altera provide world-class SoC capabilities to their FPGA solutions.

What You Will Do

As a SoC Logic Design Engineer you will:

• Develop the logic design, register transfer level (RTL) coding, and simulation for an SoC design and integrates logic of IP blocks and subsystems into a full chip SoC or discrete component design.

• Participate in the definition of architecture and microarchitecture features of the block being designed.

• Perform quality checks in various logic design aspects ranging from RTL to timing/power convergence.

• Apply various strategies, tools, and methods to write RTL and optimize logic to qualify the design to meet power, performance, area, and timing goals as well as design integrity for physical implementation.

• Review the verification plan and implementation to ensure design features are verified correctly and resolves and implements corrective measures for failing RTL tests to ensure correctness of features.

• Follow secure development practices to address the security threat model and security objects within the design.

• Work with IP providers to integrate and validate IPs at the SoC level. Drives quality assurance compliance for smooth IP-SoC handoff.

Salary Range

Our compensation reflects the cost of labor within the US market. Actual salary may vary based on a number of factors including job location, job-related knowledge, skills, experiences, trainings, etc. We also offer incentive opportunities that reward employees based on individual and company performance.
