The Role:

This position involves the development of complex SoC/chip architectures with multi-core, multi-threaded processor subsystems, AI accelerators, interconnects, memory architecture and multi-level caches, multiple clocks and resets, high-speed interfaces, peripherals. The chosen candidate would need to contribute to, and manage a team for, the development of architecture, microarchitecture, and design of So Cs which include RISC-V, ARM or proprietary processor designs, and high-speed interfaces for off-chip memories, along with the integration of wireless systems, power management, and mixed signal IP. The candidate would be responsible for the leading a project through the entire product development process.

Responsibilities

• Lead the development and execution of Wireless SoC’s from definition, through execution, and into production
• Definition and Planning Coordinate with the product marketing teams to develop the SoC requirements. Provide the necessary design collateral to support the product approval gates.
• Develop and maintain the SoC architecture or technical specification to meet the product requirements, with a key goal to maximize IP reuse.
• Develop the design schedule, including milestones and resource requirements. Coordinate with cross functional teams (such as software) on dependencies.
• Project Execution Coordinate with global design functional leads (RF, baseband, verification, etc) to track execution, triage issues, and perform prudent escalation.
• Represent the design community to provide succinct weekly status and attend the cross functional meeting. Drive design action items to closure.
• Perform SoC Design Integration and maintain design collateral such as documentation, register libraries, and pinouts delivered to cross functional teams.
• Follow established quality procedures and processes to achieve first tapeout.
• Validation to Production Actively support the validation and product test teams during silicon bringup, validation, characterization, and qualification.
• Triage, track, and resolve issues reported during silicon evaluation. Execute a metal or full layer revision, if necessary

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor or Master’s degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering, 10+ years in Industry
• Capable of leading complex IP, SOC development projects execution. Experience coordinating with contractors a plus.
• Top-down planning and execution of SOC projects.
• Experience in full-chip development cycle
• Able to build strong technical team.
• Hands-on experience in architecture, micro-architecture, digital design processes
• Knowledge of high-speed interfaces like USB, PCIe, Ethernet, Mobile DDR, Quad/Octa-SPI
• Knowledge of peripheral interfaces like SDIO, UART, I2S, I2C, PWM, CAN, etc.
• Knowledge of processors like RISC-V and ARM processors
• Knowledge of design signoff flows including Lint, CDC, Formal Verification, Synthesis, Constraints and STA Timing Closure
• Knowledge of DFT including Scan, ATPG, MBIST
• Knowledge of low power design methodology (static/dynamic clock gating, power gating, dynamic voltage and frequency scaling)
• Knowledge of hardware accelerators
• Knowledge of Verilog and System Verilog
• Knowledge of scripting languages like Perl, Python, Tcl, shell
