What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Digital Ic Design position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Digital IC Design engineer, you need a strong background in digital electronics, circuit design, and semiconductor theory, typically supported by a degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field. Familiarity with hardware description languages such as Verilog or VHDL, experience with EDA tools like Cadence or Synopsys, and understanding of ASIC/FPGA design flows are essential. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective teamwork and communication skills are highly valuable in this role. These competencies are critical to delivering reliable, high-performance integrated circuits within tight project timelines and multidisciplinary environments.

What is a Digital IC Design job?

A Digital IC Design job involves designing, implementing, and verifying digital integrated circuits (ICs) used in electronic devices. Engineers in this role work with hardware description languages (HDLs) like Verilog or VHDL to create and simulate digital logic circuits. They collaborate with teams on architecture, RTL design, synthesis, and timing analysis to ensure performance and power efficiency. This role is critical in developing chips for applications like processors, memory, networking, and consumer electronics.

What does a typical project workflow look like for a Digital IC Design engineer?

As a Digital IC Design engineer, your projects usually start with interpreting system specifications and translating them into digital architecture and RTL code. You'll iteratively design, simulate, and verify your circuits using industry-standard EDA tools, often collaborating closely with verification, physical design, and firmware teams to ensure end-to-end functionality. Throughout a project, you'll participate in design reviews, debug complex issues, and optimize performance and power based on real-world constraints. This collaborative and structured workflow is designed to ensure that final chip designs meet all functional, timing, and manufacturability requirements.

Job description

As a Digital IC Design Engineer you will be responsible for managing and executing activities associated with the design, integration, verification, and maintenance of digital IP integrated into ICs used in embedded microcontroller-based system solutions. In this role, you will help bring cutting-edge System-on-Chip solutions to the ADAS market. You will work closely with the development team to produce an MCU and Security IP strategy driven by the product roadmap, ensuring the development or acquisition of reusable IP blocks.

Job Responsibilities

  • Support system architecture definition related to security and functional safety, including core logic, memory subsystems, hardware security systems, peripheral interfaces, and power management.

  • Drive and/or support the implementation of innovative security features for large, complex designs across multiple platforms, with reuse and long-term scalability in mind.

  • Support the definition of security lifecycle management and assess potential vulnerabilities in ASIC design and the supply chain to prevent breaches of trust.

  • Scope and benchmark IP offerings from third-party vendors (microcontroller cores and peripherals).

  • Support development plan creation and associated deliverables (firmware, test plans, test code, validation boards, etc.).

  • Actively participate in the integration, pre-silicon verification, and validation of microcontroller subsystems.

  • Support product and test engineering teams to test and productize designs, including Design for Test (DFT) and Design for Manufacturing (DFM).

  • Provide support and develop firmware reference code for verification and validation stages.

  • Bridge hardware and software architecture with a focus on reusable toolchains and platform content.

Job Requirements

At indie, you must enjoy being part of an organization where everyone makes a difference and contributes to the company's success. Creativity, ownership, and excellence are core to our culture. The ideal candidate will bring the following skills and experience. We understand nobody is perfect; your new role should challenge you and provide opportunities to grow.

  • Master's degree in Electrical Engineering

  • 5+ years of relevant Digital IC Design experience

  • Experience developing system-level architecture and proposing RTL (Verilog) implementations with supporting documentation

  • Strong knowledge of Arm Cortex-based products

  • Knowledge of security concepts (key storage, secure elements, AES, product lifecycles)

  • Demonstrated experience with digital circuit simulation tools and front-end environments, particularly Cadence-based

  • Familiarity with version control systems, release management, continuous integration, and unit testing

  • Experience with scripting languages (e.g., Python) for design automation

  • Outstanding communication skills (English)

Preferred Qualifications

  • Knowledge of ISO 26262 functional safety framework (FTA, FMEDA, FMEA) and tools such as JAMA and Medini

  • Knowledge of cybersecurity standards, including ISO 21434
