DDR Design Engineer

At Apple we work every day to craft products that enrich peoples lives. If youre passionate about taking on unsolved challenges we have a great opportunity for a results-oriented and highly motivated DDR Design Engineer. nnAs a member of our dynamic group you will have the rare and rewarding opportunity to craft upcoming products that will delight and inspire millions of Apples customers every single day. You will join the DDR PHY design team. We provide best-in-class PHY designs for high-performance low power applications. As a logic design engineer you will be involved in all phases of the design from concept study architecture definition design and verification to silicon bring-up and characterization.

In this role you will be responsible for performing concept studies and providing direction in terms of performance gate count and power for various digital designs. You will be responsible for writing detailed design specification and test plans in close collaboration with architecture circuit designers and verification engineers. You will provide high-quality RTL description including assertions for the design. Use formal tools and static checkers to guarantee RTL quality. You will also support design verification to insure bug-free first silicon. Responsibilities will include driving functional and code coverage as well as timing closure for your designs and supporting silicon bring-up performance and power characterization.
