About the Job

Requirements

  • At least 8 years of experience architecting and designing complex IP designs or subsystems with minimal supervision.
  • Experience with high-speed serial protocols and associated controller and PHY challenges, including PCIe, Ethernet, and SerDes.
  • Understanding of external memory interface protocols, including DDR4, LPDDR4, and Quad SPI Flash interfaces.
  • Experience with microcontroller architecture and bus protocols such as AHB, AMBA, and AXI.
  • Extensive hands-on knowledge of hardware description languages (Verilog and VHDL), scripting languages (Perl and Tcl), and C/C++ for hardware modeling.
  • Understanding of end-to-end IP development flow, including complex clock-domain crossing and reset-domain crossing constructs, IP synthesis, and design-for-test automatic test pattern generation coverage.
  • Experience developing testbenches and test plans in close collaboration with the verification team.
  • Proficient written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to demonstrate ownership, build trust and respect, demonstrate emotional intelligence and leadership values, and work effectively as part of local, remote, or multisite teams.

Responsibilities

  • Own and drive roadmaps for complete IP and subsystem domain portfolios within the global research and development team.
  • Benchmark against other industry players and ensure differentiating customer features through innovation.
  • Architect and design complex IP and subsystems across protocols for edge processing, automotive self-driving vehicles, in-vehicle experience, gateway systems, and fail-safe subsystems (ASIL-D).
  • Own and lead IP and subsystem development from concept through IP design and development, achieving final design performance in integrated systems within market-driven schedules.
  • Ensure quality adherence throughout the IP development cycle, analyze existing processes, recommend and implement process improvements, and drive and mentor teams toward zero-defect designs.
  • Own and drive global IP design methodologies across sites with global stakeholders.
  • Develop high-level specifications and implement designs across a broad range of skills.

Desired Qualifications

  • Hands-on pre-silicon validation experience using an FPGA or emulation board.

About the Company

NXP Semiconductors

Automotive semiconductors and secure embedded solutions

NXP Semiconductors designs and sells semiconductor chips for vehicles and other devices. Its products include automotive-grade microcontrollers and other ICs used in engines, infotainment, safety systems, and networked car architectures. These chips process data, run software, and enable features such as advanced driver assistance and vehicle connectivity, often with strong security and real-time performance. Unlike some peers, NXP became an independent company after Philips spun off its semiconductor unit in 2006 and later merged with Freescale in 2015, building a focused strength in automotive semiconductors and microcontrollers. This gives it a clear niche in the market and the goal of growing as a standalone leader in smarter, connected vehicles and related technologies.
