Job Description
You will be joining an organization focused on SoC PTP across segments. Architecting the product for leadership performance and ensuring targets are hit through the life cycle.
- Develops and drives end-to-end SoC architecture including firmware, hardware, and platform specifications for highly optimized, modular, and scalable SoCs.
- Drives SoC functionality, connectivity, configuration, performance, timing, power, and area goals.
- Drives evaluation and integration of existing IP blocks into new SoCs as well as the specification of any gaskets or glue logic.
- Evaluates feasibility tradeoffs and explores and defines new approaches and novel architectures for SoC.
- Invents, conceptualizes, and specifies microarchitecture and architectural features for next-generation products.
- Develops tests, test plans, and testing infrastructure for new architectures/features, performs functional modeling simulations, and conducts analysis of test results.
- Provides experimental/proof of concept changes for proposing design alternatives meeting performance, power, area, and timing constraints.
- Reviews, challenges, and influences cross-functional roadmaps and defines technology targets for future SoCs.
- Collaborates with architects, design engineers, system engineers, and verification engineers to improve the overall design of SoC and overcome constraints.
