Senior Principal Front End ASIC Design Engineer (Hybrid)

Job Description Are you interested in quantum imaging? Join us! In this role you can apply your expertise in Front End Digital design for ASICs driving our latest sensors – highlighted by their low read noise capabilities. This involves architecting and implementing digital functions of sensors and validating the products through programming the bring-up systems to achieve world class performance. Your work will enable our cutting-edge imaging products.

The Imaging Solutions organization of BAE Systems is part of our Microelectronics product line in FAST Labs. Imaging Solutions has a strong history of driving innovation in imaging for commercial applications. Innovation ranges from the first commercial CCD imager in 1970 to applications including the Hubble Telescope, cinematic cameras and state of the art scientific imaging. As a small organization within a large corporation we enjoy the diversity and comradery of a start up with the stability of a large company.

We are looking for a senior level chip designer who has strong proficiency in both

• ASIC design- performing architecture design, RTL coding/simulation, timing closure at layout phase
• Verification- executing testbench creation, functional coverage, test failures analysis, regression

Detail requirements

• Front End Design and RTL coding of high-speed digital circuits on ASIC/FPGAs from concept to production.
• Defining detailed test plan and implementing Verilog simulation test cases to verify design functionality.
• Debug product, test and resolve design issues on hardware platforms
