• Analyze standards (PCI-SIG, IEEE 802.3, UALink, etc) and translate into implementable RTL
• Work with cross-functional project teams (DV, PD, System/Firmware) to define product specifications (PPA), system architecture, HW/SW partitioning, and execution plan
• Lead improvements to design methodology to maximize efficiency and predictability
• RTL implementation in SystemVerilog of communication/DSP/packet-processing functions
• Block-level verification including creation of Verilog or UVM testbenches
• System-level verification in UVM+SysC environments including test case creation/debug, functional coverage specification, and code coverage analysis
• Perform preliminary synthesis and power estimation, including SDC constraint specification and vector-driven power analysis
• Perform design quality checks including lint, CDC and DFT-readiness checks
• Support emulator-based verification including debug of SW driven test cases
• Post silicon bring-up support and debug in lab; support system integration and production testing
• Provide technical leadership in the ASIC design team to develop and productize next generation communication and data center SoCs

• Expert in digital design including micro-architecture definition and area/power/timing optimization
• Solid understanding of high-speed interfaces (Ethernet/PCIe), particularly MAC/PCS (or Transaction/Data Link/PHY logical) layers, and associated clocking, reset, and CDC considerations
• Experience with performance modeling and analysis, including performance constraint identification and optimization
• Extensive experience with ASIC front-end design flow including RTL coding (SystemVerilog), directed/randomized verification, simulation/emulation debug, lint/CDC checks, synthesis, power analysis and timing closure support
• Knowledge of communications/DSP/FEC algorithms and experience with power/area efficient fixed-point ASIC implementation a plus
• Familiar with SoC integration, including clock/reset architecture, bus protocols, embedded CPUs
• Strong logical and creative problem-solving skills with excellent analytical and debugging skills
• Solid written and verbal communication skills
• Flexibility to ramp quickly on new technologies, products, and methodologies

MaxLinear is a global, NASDAQ-traded company (MXL) where the entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well. We are a fabless system-on-chip product company, striving to improve the world's communication networks for everyone through our highly integrated radio-frequency (RF), analog, digital, and mixed-signal semiconductor solutions for access and connectivity, wired and wireless infrastructure, and industrial and multi-market applications.

We hire the best people in the industry and engage them in some of the most exciting opportunities that connect the world we live in today. Our growth has come from innovative, bold approaches to solving some of the world's most challenging communication technology problems in the most efficient and effective manner.

MaxLinear began by developing the world's first high-performance TV tuner chip using standard CMOS process technology. Others said we couldn't achieve the extremely high-performance requirements using CMOS, but we proved them wrong and achieved enduring global market leadership with our designs. Since then, we've developed a full line of products that drive 4G and 5G infrastructure; enable data center, metro and long-haul optical interconnects; bring 10Gbit to the home; power the IoT revolution; and enable robust and reliable communication in harsh industrial environments. Over the years, we've expanded through organic growth and through several acquisitions that have perfectly complemented our existing portfolio and enabled us to deliver complete end-to-end solutions in our target markets. One such example was the acquisition of Intel's Home Gateway Platform Division that added Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and Broadband Gateway Processor SoC technology to our connected home portfolio creating a complete and scalable platform of connectivity and access solutions to fully address our customers' needs.

Our headquarters are in Carlsbad, near San Diego, California. We also have major design centers in Irvine and San Jose, California; Valencia, Spain; Bangalore, India; Munich, Germany; Israel; and Singapore.

We have approximately 1,200 employees, a substantial majority of whom have engineering degrees and include masters and Ph.D. graduates from many of the premiere universities around the world. Our employees thrive on innovation, outstanding execution, outside-the-box thinking, nimbleness, and collaboration. Together, we form a high-energy business team that is focused on building the best and most innovative products on the market.
