We are looking for a highly skilled Senior RTL ASIC Design Engineer with solid hands-on experience in SDC Constraints. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in RTL design, timing constraints, and close collaboration with synthesis and STA teams.

➖ Design and develop RTL (Verilog/System Verilog) for complex ASIC blocks and subsystems

➖ Create, review, and maintain SDC constraints (clock definitions, I/O constraints, false paths, multicycle paths, exceptions, etc.)

➖ Work closely with synthesis, STA, physical design, and verification teams to achieve timing closure

➖ Perform RTL quality checks, linting, and CDC analysis

➖ Support timing debugging and constraint optimization across multiple design iterations

➖ Participate in architecture discussions and design reviews

➖ Ensure deliverables meet performance, power, and area (PPA) goals.
