RTL Design Engineer

This engineer develops CPU features from architectural definition through RTL implementation and functional validation. They create microarchitectural specifications, write and optimize Verilog or SystemVerilog, and help meet power, performance, area, timing, and implementation-quality targets. The position also involves reviewing verification coverage, debugging failing tests, and supporting customers integrating the CPU IP into SoCs. The work is part of Intel’s processor and IP design organization, with opportunities to contribute across design and implementation stages. It suits an early-career engineer with a background in digital logic, computer architecture, RTL development, and hardware design tools.
