Responsibilities:

• Work with System, Architecture and Product Planning team to build and own pre-silicon power modeling, power estimation and post-silicon power correlation. Work closely with the Engineering team to track RTL and gate level power changes during project execution and co-ordinate with design engineers and architects to deploy low power design methods for power reduction.

• Investigate, plan, and test sub-threshold and near-threshold design methodologies and other related low power techniques for power optimization (e.g., customized standard cells, level shifters, retention flops, multi-bit flops etc.

• Validate and refine new low power design techniques as part of a team that is building complex test chips in advanced nodes (e.g., 12nm and beyond). Maintain a relationship and collaborate with 3rd party CAD tool vendors and foundries during the development of new methodologies.

​

Requirements:​

• A master’s degree in electrical engineering or a related field is required.

• Experience in pre-silicon power modeling, analysis, and power reduction, with proficiency in PTPX, Power Artist, or other power analysis tools and post-silicon power correlation

• Strong understanding of Low Power design methodologies, CPF/UPF, good understanding of physical design flow and timing closure with actual implementation experience as a plus.

• Experience developing new methodologies and transitioning those technologies to production is highly desirable.

• Knowledge in system architecture and SOC components such as CPU, fabric and peripherals

• Experience in system and on-die power integrity and EM would be an added advantage.

• Proficiency in scripting languages such as Shell, Perl or Python. Possess strong problem-solving and analytical skills.
