Job Overview:
Within the CE-Systems implementation team we support the delivery of soft IP to both internal teams & a large partner base, helping them achieve their goals & craft some of the most sophisticated SoCs of today!
We enjoy an unusually broad role, working directly with frontend teams to ensure partner success on the latest foundry nodes with highly configurable system IP. We are passionate about optimizing & defining PPA across this configuration space, to enable all possible use cases. This requires developing a deep understanding of the designs from our in-house synthesis, place & route flows and successfully mapping this knowledge into a partners' environment.
Quantifying and optimizing power for such IP requires significant co-ordination across design, performance & implementation teams. Ensuring activity is adequate to drive actionable insights & impact final silicon is a significant challenge requiring multiple skills!
Responsibilities:
- Quantify power and analyze vector traffic for design coverage
- Identify design opportunities to optimize power
- Ensure delivered IP can achieve partner goals.
- Support team flexibility by keeping up to date with their latest issues & challenges.
Required Skills and Experience :
- Master’s degree or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or other relevant technical fields.
- Outstanding knowledge of system power analysis & optimization
- Significant experience in & knowledge of the entire IC design flow, from RTL through to GDS2 across multiple process nodes down to 3nm.
- Low power design techniques (power gating, voltage/frequency scaling)
- The ability to communicate insights effectively to engineers both with & without an implementation background.
- Able to identify and solve emerging challenges, develop associated tooling & methodologies & promote their use with international teams.
- Solid scripting skills eg. TCL, Python, Perl, R.
“Nice To Have” Skills and Experience :
- Ownership of the technical delivery for a large project or program.
- Knowledge around Arm based SoCs.
