Driving decarbonization and digitalization. Together.

RTL Design and Verification

Architect and simulate DSP signal chains for automotive Ethernet PHYs: define features, performance targets, and algorithm specs for mixed-signal and digital teams

Develop equalization and adaptation algorithms for wireline channels(e.g., FFE/DFE, adaptive filtering), including fixed-point considerations

Design and implement timing recovery/synchronization blocks (CDR, tracking loops), including jitter tolerance and stability/latency tradeoffs

Contribute to detection and coding / FEC integration: soft-information interfaces, performance/complexity tradeoffs, and linkKPIs

Build bit-true / fixed-point models and reference implementations primarily in C++ and MATLAB (Python optional, not core

Define verification metrics and stress tests (BER/FER, convergence time, corner cases) and partner with DV to ensure coverage

Support silicon bring-up and lab debug: correlate model ↔ silicon, root-cause issues, and iterate on algorithms/specs

Collaborate across architecture, design, verification, and applications to deliver implementable and testable solutions

Minimum requirements

B.S. + 10 years (or M.S. + 7 years) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field

Strong fundamentals in digital communications and DSP, including probability/statistics

Practical experience in high-speed wireline DSP, including some mix of: FFE/DFE, adaptation, CDR, MLSD/Viterbi concepts, FEC integration, fixed-point modeling

Strong C++ and MATLAB skills for algorithm development, modeling, and analysis

Preferred qualifications

Experience with automotive Ethernet PHY/SerDes constraints(robustness, low latency, interoperability, EMI resilience)

Familiarity with ADC-based receiver architectures and calibration concepts

Experience translating algorithms into RTL-friendly specs(throughput/latency budgeting, memory/compute sizing, state-machine behavior)

Knowledge of link startup/training / autoneg concepts and system validation

Exposure to standards work (e.g., IEEE 802.3) or cross-company technical leadership

As a global leader in semiconductor solutions in power systems and IoT, Infineon enables game-changing solutions for green and efficient energy, clean and safe mobility, as well as smart and secure IoT.
