Positions are open for full-time positions in the areas of SOC microarchitecture and logic design including on-chip interconnects, caches, high performance memory interface, system control, high-speed IO interfaces, and data parallel processing engine. We are looking for all levels of talent, from new college grads to advanced level of experience.
Responsibilities
Microarchitecture development and specification - from early high-level architectural exploration through micro architectural research and arriving at a detailed specification
Development, assessment, and refinement of RTL design to target power, performance, area, and timing goals
Validation - support test bench development and simulation for functional and performance verification
Performance exploration and correlation - explore high performance strategies and validate that the RTL design meets targeted performance
Design delivery - work with multi-functional engineering team to implement and validate physical design on the aspects of timing, area, reliability, testability and power
Requirements
Thorough knowledge of microprocessor or system architecture in one or more of the following areas:
SOC: Fabric and network-on-chip solutions, high performance system-memory solutions, controllers for high speed I/O like PCI Express, low speed I/O like i2c, Power-management, power delivery, security, and data parallel engines.
Knowledge of SystemVerilog
Experience with simulators and waveform debugging tools
Knowledge of logic design principles along with timing and power implications
Understanding of low power microarchitecture techniques
Understanding of high performance techniques and trade-offs in a CPU microarchitecture
Experience in C or C++ programming
Experience using an interpretive language such as Perl or Python
Education and Experience
PhD, Master’s Degree or Bachelor’s Degree in technical subject area.
