Responsibilities
- Port ASIC RTL into FPGA-friendly RTL, taking it through synthesis and place & route
- Develop RTL code to improve the ease of use of the ASIC design in the FPGA platform
- Perform Static Timing Analysis on implemented designs
- Bring up the design on FPGA prototyping platforms
- Work with multi-functional teams to ensure they can use the FPGA platform and support them when facing problems
- Define and run functional verification tests to prove the FPGA builds prior to FPGA distribution
- Tests and debugs the emulation/FPGA model and collaterals
- Validate new digital IP and architectures on FPGAs prior to silicon being produced
- Develop automation tools and test to help improve the implementation and verification flows
