At Goodix we work on industry leading technologies for future products in the consumer electronics space. Are you an established SoC Architect who enjoys and thrives working in a fast-paced collaborative environment that values independent thought and likes ownership driven responsibilities right here in Austin, TX

As the SoC Architect, you will be our expert and a key technical member driving our SoC digital design projects. The ideal candidate must have deep knowledge in all aspects of Digital SoC design and development from product definition/requirements, modeling, RTL design, Design Verification, Physical Design to firmware/embedded software/DSP, and prototyping. We reply on your expertise and guidance to work with cross-functional teams around the globe in different phases design to analyze the trade-offs, address architectural issues, and make design recommendations. 

Responsibilities:

• Work in a dynamic team environment to architect and design digital subsystems from concept to production

• Architect and design a variety of high-performance digital blocks for mixed-signal IC's

• Industry Experience in architecting multiple SOC for digital or mixed-signal systems

• Experience in identifying and integrating 3rd party IP

• Convert subsystems into real-world final designs for integration into final product

• Support tape-out and post-silicon activities including validation, characterization, and production test

Required Skills and Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s/Master's degree in Electrical Engineering and 18+ years of technical experience in digital system design

• Highly experienced in digital design, including architecture, Verilog RTL design, verification, and synthesis

• Skilled in architecture and design of high-speed logic, complex state-machines, and/or signal processing paths

• Strong background in architecture tradeoff analysis and modeling tools.

• Previous hands-on experience writing detailed SoC micro-architecture specifications and implementation details for SoC block.

Preferred Skills and Qualifications:

• Working knowledge of high-level modeling tools like Simulink, Matlab, or similar
