Responsibilities:
The AMD SerDes team in Ireland are hiring for a Staff level digital design engineer to lead the development of digital designs for complex mixed-signal ICs in the latest CMOS FinFET processes. The scope of the work includes the RTL design and implementation of complex clock and data recovery algorithms, adaptive digitally assisted control loops and the development of advanced DSP designs to achieve power efficient channel equalization solutions. The successful candidate will work with an experienced mixed signal design team delivering world-class SerDes solutions.

DAY TO DAY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• RTL implementation of algorithms for clock and data recovery, adaptive digital control and DSP.
• Communication with the architecture team to understand proposed algorithms and provide feedback regarding design implementation.
• Digital design verification to ensure basic design functionality prior to hand-off of the design to verification team
• Design verification using standard industry tools for HDL checking e.g. CDC, RDC, Lint
• Support of the verification team in the debug of identified issues
• Assist with silicon bring up and debug.
• Creation of clear design specifications and implementation documentation.
• Mentoring of junior team members
