Join Altera IP solutions team and work on cutting edge FPGA RTL and IP design! Altera's IP Solutions Engineering (IPSE) team develops comprehensive solutions to provide customers easy and efficient access to the capabilities of Altera’s FPGA devices. These solutions are provided as highly configurable intellectual property (IP) cores that are fully integrated with Altera's software CAD tool, Quartus Prime. The IP Cores we develop include high-speed interface IPs such as PHY-lite, MIPI, and LVDS, which are designed for high-speed data transmission and used in applications like video processing, display interfaces, chip-to-chip communication, and chip testing. Altera's IP cores provide configurable access to the high-speed, high-bandwidth, low-latency interfaces, leveraging dedicated and specialized silicon subsystems in the FPGA. The constantly rising speed and complexity of video, display, and high-speed data transmission interfaces presents a challenging design problem that requires system-level knowledge of silicon, software, IP, and customer applications.
As an IP Design Engineer, you will work with a team of engineers to develop and verify state-of-the-art PHY-lite, MIPI, and LVDS-based IP cores for high-speed data transmission. You will be working on advanced FPGA architectures, design definition, implementation, and verification. Additionally, you will also be developing design examples and simulation models, accompanied by a rich set of technical documentation. In this role, you will work closely with multiple teams, including silicon design and validation, post-silicon validation, application engineering, and customer experience teams, to ensure seamless development, integration, and optimization of high-speed interface IP solutions.
Your specific responsibilities will include, but are not limited to the following:
Architecture and Design based on the latest protocol specifications for video processing, display interfaces, chip-to-chip, and high-speed data transmission interfaces
RTL development
Device support and CAD tool integration
Verification (e.g. verification IP, methodologies, frameworks, bus functional models, regression tests)
Hardware power-on and debug
New product release and rollout support
Customer technical support
The candidate should possess the following behavioral traits:
Strong skills in communication, initiative, innovation, and teamwork
Highly motivated to learn and adapt to fast-changing technologies and environments
Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail
Demonstrate fundamental values such as accountability, integrity, and a winning mindset
Collaborative mindset, strong influencing skills, and a willingness to work across geographical locations
