Principal Engineer Digital Design

Role overview

Principal Engineer Digital Design at Infineon

Own end-to-end IP definition from requirements through architecture, implementation, verification, and handoff.

This role drives architecture closure across algorithm intent, fixed-point implementation, RTL micro-architecture, register/bus interfaces, verification strategy, and implementation readiness.

Responsibilities

• in your new role
• Technical Ownership
• Translate system and product requirements into a clear IP micro-architecture and execution plan.
• Drive closure on algorithm intent, control behavior, filter architecture, latency budgets, and implementation trade-offs.
• Review and converge control/filter algorithm definition, sampling intent, and expected behavior with signal-processing architects.
• Drive fixed-point architecture decisions including numeric precision, dynamic range, saturation, rounding, scaling, and pipeline placement.
• Oversee RTL architecture for filter data path, coefficient programming, update paths, loop delays, state machines, and control logic.
• Own top-level design decisions affecting timing, CDC, reset strategy, area, power, and implementation robustness.
• Guide register architecture, status/control visibility, firmware programmability, and system integration behavior.
• Drive architecture and RTL for AHB/PM Bus/AVS or other system-facing interfaces, including arbitration and error handling.
• Define verification goals and signoff expectations jointly with DV and AMS verification leads.
• Ensure availability of golden models, bit-true checking strategy, coverage goals, and end-to-end latency checks.
• Drive closure on corner cases including overflow, convergence, saturation recovery, limit cycles, reset behavior, and protocol exceptions.
• Ensure analog assumptions, abstraction boundaries, and mixed-signal interaction points are verified appropriately.
• Review and close functional gaps across RTL, DV, DMS/AMS, and system validation.
• Break down execution into work packages, milestones, dependencies, and risk mitigation plans.
