Digital ASIC Design Engineer (714872)

About this opportunity
The Radio Near Algorithm IP unit is one of several units responsible for the development of new radio hardware units, which is in base stations development within Ericsson for GSM, WCDMA, LTE, 5G and future standards. The team is involved in all parts of the product development process; technical studies, research, pre-development and designs for high volume products.
The main technical responsibility for this team is the antenna near signal processing blocks implemented in ASIC, FPGA and/or structured ASIC circuits. We are looking for a person who will develop the next generation of our algorithmic solutions!
We are using FPGA prototyping to validate our algorithms.
This position reports to the Line manager - Radio Near Algorithm IP Unit.


What you will do
Implement advanced signal processing algorithms in HW using a mix of traditional RTL design techniques and high-level description language (HLS) for our radio base stations
Gather and understand requirements and translate this into effective signal processing implementations to meet the expectations from our customers
Work closely with experts and senior specialists to drive improvements by identifying new opportunities based on expansion of existing, as well as crafting, new solutions
Work in a fast-paced collaborative environment developing groundbreaking advanced signal processing solutions.
Write technical design documentation for all your designs
Work in collaboration with the verification team to deliver quality in the designs.



You will bring
Master’s degree, or PhD, in electrical engineering, engineering physics or similar work experience
6+ years in an ASIC or FPGA Design & Development role
Theoretical and practical knowledge of digital signal processing algorithms, e.g. digital filters, FFTs, fixed-point implementation of DSP data paths digital communications
Good programming skills (Matlab, VHDL/Verilog/SystemVerilog/SystemC, C/C++, etc.)
Knowledge of simulation (e.g. Quartus, ISE), synthesis (e.g. Synplify, Synopsys DC), timing analysis and place & route (e.g. Vivado)
High self-motivation, an ability to work independently, while being an excellent teammate
An analytical approach and be results oriented with the ability to deliver under pressure
Candidate should be proficient in English
Strong analytical abilities to understand flows and coding impact



In addition to the above, skills that carry merit include
Knowledge of HLS (e.g. Catapult HLS, Stratus HLS, Vivado HLS)
Experience working with vector engine type DSP’s
Experience in translating mathematical models, such as a Matlab program into real-time embedded firmware
Enjoying being in a lab environment and taking ownership from implementation to verification on target
Experience in algorithm development for the RF transmitter and receiver.
