The Silicon Trainee role is a structured entry point for B.
Tech ECE VLSI and AEXP graduates who want to see the whole flow from specification to timing before choosing where to specialise. You will rotate through RTL, verification and implementation tasks on DECCANX projects such as the NX-AXI DMA engine and the 13-stage RISC-V core, working beside senior engineers and documenting what you learn. What you will work on
• Read design specifications and turn them into small RTL blocks and directed tests
• Run simulations, read waveforms and report what the design did versus what the spec said
• Assist with lint, synthesis and static timing checks on small blocks
• Maintain clear notes: design decisions, test results and debug findings
• Take part in design and code reviews and respond to review comments
• Present a short technical summary of your rotation work each month Skills Required And How Deep Depth shows how far along you should be on day one. We teach the rest.
• Digital logic and sequential designStrong FSMs, counters, FIFOs and timing basics appear in every task
• Verilog or SystemVerilogWorking knowledge You will read and write synthesizable RTL from the first month




• Computer architecture basicsWorking knowledge Pipelines, caches and buses give context to the blocks you build
• Linux command line and GitWorking knowledge All work lives in version-controlled repositories
• Clear technical writingWorking knowledge Documentation is part of every deliverable Nice to have
• A small RTL project, even a UART or FIFO
• Basic scripting in Python or Bash
• Awareness of the ASIC flow stages Tools you will use
• SystemVerilog
• Simulators such as Verilator or Icarus Verilog
• Waveform viewers
• Git
• Python What you will learn
• The specification-to-timing flow
• How RTL, verification and implementation teams hand work to each other
• Debugging methodically with waveforms and logs Your first 90 days
• First 30 daysSet up the toolchain, read the project specs and complete a guided RTL exercise.
• Days 31 to 60Own a small block with a testbench and a short review.
• Days 61 to 90Present your rotation findings and pick a specialisation to deepen. Who fits: You like understanding how things work end to end and would rather ask a exact question than guess.
