Digital design engineer vs cost engineer

Differences between digital design engineer and cost engineer duties and responsibilities

Digital design engineer example responsibilities.

• Manage DSP communication applications and algorithms for cellular base stations and cable modems.
• Perform EMI debugging and validate system to achieve compliance certification for both FCC and CE marks.
• Perform back-end flow from RTL code synthesis, timing driven physical design to achieve a timing closure type-out database.
• Design and build digital, analog, and RF circuitry for digital circuit test equipment
• Incorporate the knowledge of the end-to-end ASIC design flow from RTL to GDSII file generation.
• Redesign a parameter encoder ASIC (600k gates , 0.35u), performing VHDL updates to a largely schematic-base design.

Cost engineer example responsibilities.

• Manage and monitor SharePoint activities and update daily tasks to ensure information is documented, remains accurate and up-to-date.
• Manage Jenkins security by providing specific access to authorize developers/testers using project base matrix authorization strategy.
• Create BOM for each project assuring special procedures, materials requirements and reinforcements.
• Research and analyze various commodities for function to price and price to cost evaluation.
• Design and install a complete integrate information management system on IBM equipment and ERP software.
