Positions are open for full-time in the areas of Cache microarchitecture and logic design.
Responsibilities
- As a Cache Microarchitecture & Logic Design Engineer, you will own or participate in the following:
- 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
- Design delivery - work with multi-functional engineering team to implement and validate physical design on the aspects of timing, area, reliability, testability and power
- 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
Requirements
- Thorough knowledge of microprocessor or SOC design with 2+ years of direct work experience in one or more of the following areas:
- High performance cache controllers - pipeline design, hazard detection, parity/ECC generation, coherency policies, replacement policies
- Coherent on-chip Fabrics for high performance SOCs and design of associated control structures
- 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
Education and Experience
PhD, Master’s Degree or Bachelor’s Degree in technical subject area.
