- Knowledge of semiconductor project life cycle and quality goals of all functions.
- Familiarity with low power design techniques (e.g., multi Vth/power/voltage domain design, clock gating, power gating, Dynamic Voltage Frequency Scaling).
About the jobIn this role, you'll work to shape the future of AI/ML hardware acceleration. You will have an opportunity to drive cutting-edge TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) technology that powers Google's most demanding AI/ML applications. You'll be part of a team that pushes boundaries, developing custom silicon solutions that power the future of Google's TPU. You'll contribute to the innovation behind products loved by millions worldwide, and leverage your design and verification expertise to verify complex digital designs, with a specific focus on TPU architecture and its integration within AI/ML-driven systems.
As a Silicon Engineering Manager, you will directly manage and drive the team collaborating with physical design, circuits, technology, and package leads to overcome the slowing of Moore's Law in advanced technology nodes and deliver ASICs and SoCs. You will drive competitive and reliable products by optimizing, analyzing, customizing, and verifying our power delivery network to meet performance and integrity specifications. You will manage technical evaluations of EDA tools, process nodes, and IPs and provide recommendations. You will develop new and novel power delivery and reliability solutions and methodologies that co-optimize across the entire design space, then see these through from inception to maturity and tapeout.
Responsibilities - Direct, manage, and set strategy for the power grid distribution and power integrity team, accurately identifying required skills and allocating resources across all active projects.
- Manage the evaluates electromigration (EM) and voltage drops (IR drop) (EMIR) team to complete analysis at the block, sub-chip, and full-chip levels, successfully executing comprehensive signoff checks to ensure highly robust final design reliability.
- Collaborate closely with physical design, STA, package, and circuit teams to define EMIR budgets, signoff methodologies, and proactive mitigation strategies like optimal floorplanning and standard cell selection.
- Work with internal groups and external software vendors to establish priorities and define critical capabilities for key EMIR tools on projects.
- Own team growth by creating customized development plans, managing staffing initiatives, and fostering a collaborative environment to maximize every member's overall impact and productivity.
Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
