About the role / Segment
Mentor Graphics a part of Siemens EDA, is looking for a research and development engineer who is required to understand, design and implement algorithm-centric solutions in the high-level synthesis. The role is for industry leading high level synthesis tool – Catapult-C which takes ANSI C/C++ and SystemC inputs and generates register transfer level (RTL) code targeted to FPGAs and ASICs.
Catapult-C tool is used by top hardware design companies for designing cutting edge semiconductor chip design in automotive/machine learning/wireless design/video and image processing etc.
The offered position includes:
- Working on the physical design execution from C to GDS and the power estimation/optimization
- Conducting complex analyses and debug of results using statistics and data predictions to identify issues or areas for improvement.
- Work with customers, research partners and academia to drive future innovation-related initiatives including the development of new scripts and flows.
- Leverage infrastructure and learning developed from such initiatives to products in Siemens EDA
- Analyze and improve PPA for HLS-generated RTL by improving Flows and Methodologies.
- Participate in the specification, architecture, design, and development of features.
- Be a force for improving development processes and product quality.
- Work effectively with globally distributed engineering teams.
These are exciting times in our space – we are growing fast and working on ambitious new initiatives.
