As a Custom HBM Architecture and Design Engineer, you will be part of the Heterogeneous Integration Group (HIG), contributing to the architecture, design, development, and integration of next-generation HBM SoC logic die. You will work closely with architecture, design, verification, physical design, firmware, and product teams to implement robust, high-performance SoC solutions that meet ambitious power, performance, area, and schedule targets. This is a hands-on technical role for candidates passionate about architecture, RTL build, IP integration, debugging, and pre/post-silicon support.
Key Responsibilities- Analyze hardware and software interaction at the system level to identify bottlenecks in existing AI/ML workloads and HBM-based hardware.
- Drive future HBM architecture, design, and technology to address bottlenecks, including implementing proof of concept designs.
- Architect, design and implement RTL for SoC-level blocks and subsystems used in HBM logic die.
- Architect and design memory sub-systems including memory IP selection and integration, bus and protocol selection, and power/performance/area optimization.
- Integrate internal and third-party IP (e.g., controllers, microcontrollers, NOC, RAS, MBIST, interfaces, adapters, buffers, PHY-adjacent logic).
- Translate architectural and micro-architectural specifications into high-quality RTL implementations.
- Participate in SoC-level integration activities, including clocking, reset, power intent, and configuration infrastructure.
- Assist with pre-silicon validation and post-silicon bring-up, including root-cause analysis of silicon issues.
- Contribute to design documentation, block specifications, and design reviews.
- Collaborate multi-functionally with Product Engineering, Test, Probe, Process Integration, and Manufacturing to ensure robust and manufacturable builds.
Minimum Qualifications- Bachelor's or master's degree in electrical engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field, with a minimum of 10 years of experience in a related field.
- Proficiency in SystemVerilog/Verilog and familiarity with SoC integration methodologies.
- Experience with the RTL-to-GDS flow, including synthesis, static timing analysis, and develop sign-off considerations.
- Familiarity with EDA tools from Cadence, Synopsys, and/or Siemens.
- Programming or scripting experience (e.g., Python, TCL, Perl, or shell scripting).
Preferred Qualifications- Experience with HBM, DRAM, or memory-centric SoC designs.
- Familiarity with high-speed interfaces, clocking strategies, reset architectures, and power management concepts.
- Exposure to DFT concepts (scan, MBIST, BIRA/BISR) and debug.
- Experience with hardware emulation or acceleration platforms. (e.g., Palladium, Veloce, Zebu)
