Pubblicato il 19-09-2026 - Nxp Semiconductors in Catania
NXP’s Industrial & IoT Edge solutions range from the smallest MCUs to very high-performance processors to provide real-time insights and efficient automation when performance matters most. NXP’s advanced portfolio of edge processing solutions lets developers explore their most innovative ideas with confidence, enabling applications across the autonomous home, industrial automation, and personal electronics. NXP is building new teams in Catania to create high impact micro-controllers (MCU) as part of NXP’s intelligent AI at the Edge. This team will include a wide range of engineering talent from analog to SOC digital design. We are looking for an intern to support digital design activities within our growing Catania team, with hands-on project exposure, mentoring from experienced engineers, and potential university thesis collaboration.
Your Responsibilities
Support the development of digital sub-circuits related to complex System-on-Chip (SOC) designs based on pre-defined specifications, gaining hands-on exposure to RTL coding (Verilog/SystemVerilog), synthesis,
static timing analysis (STA), formal verification, power analysis, and design for testability (DFT) concepts. Collaborate with analog, mixed-signal, digital, and software teams to understand interfaces, system performance considerations, and integration practices. Follow established design methodologies and guidance from senior engineers to contribute to schedule commitments and quality objectives. Assist with design verification activities using simulation tools and structured debug methodologies under the supervision of experienced engineers. Contribute to lab, validation, and debug preparation activities, learning how design issues are identified, analyzed, and resolved to support product quality. Prepare and maintain clear technical documentation, including design notes, verification summaries, and review material. Learn industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in digital IC design meth
