Job description

The ASIC Design Engineer role is part of the Cloud-Scale Machine Learning Acceleration team at AWS, focusing on the design and optimization of hardware for data centers, including AWS Inferentia. This position involves integrating subsystems into top-level System on Chips (SoCs) and ensuring high performance and efficiency in RTL design. The team values mentorship and knowledge-sharing, providing an environment that supports career growth and development. Candidates will work on cutting-edge technologies and architectures to deliver innovative solutions for AWS customers.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field
  • 5+ years in RTL design for SOC
  • 5+ years of VLSI engineering
  • 5+ years with code quality tools including Spyglass, LINT, or CDC
  • Experience scripting for automation, such as Python, Perl, or Ruby
  • Experience with Microarchitecture, SystemVerilog RTL, Assertions, and SDC constraints
  • Familiarity with data path design, interconnects, and AXI protocol

Responsibilities

  • Integrate multiple subsystems into top-level SOC, ensuring correct clock/reset/functional/DFT signal routing.
  • Implement and deliver high performance, area, and power efficient RTL to achieve design targets and specifications.
  • Analyze design, microarchitecture, or architecture to make trade-offs based on features, power, performance, or area requirements.
  • Develop micro-architecture, implement SystemVerilog RTL, and deliver synthesis/timing clean design with constraints.
  • Perform lint and clock domain crossing quality checks on the design.
  • Collaborate with architects, other designers, verification teams, and pre- and post-silicon validation teams to accomplish tasks.

Benefits

  • Employees at Amazon are often offered comprehensive health benefits—including multiple medical plan options (no pre-existing condition exclusions, 100% covered in-network preventive care), dental and vision plans, a 24/7 medical advice line from day one, expert second-opinion services, and broad mental-health support with several free counseling sessions (including pediatric). Financial wellness typically includes a 401(k) with company match (up to 2%), Restricted Stock Units (equity), FSAs, an emergency savings program, product and partner discounts, and even college-savings and home-purchase programs. Overall, the package is designed to support employees and their families’ health, finances, and day-to-day life.
