About the role:As a Sr. member of Tensordyne's ASIC team, you will be responsible for the microarchitecture and design implementation of high-performance AI ASICs. These ASICs closely couple novel computational accelerator units, compute, interconnects, networking and 3rd-party IP blocks as needed to redefine the next generation of tokenomics for inference.
Responsibilities:- Author micro-architecture specifications and participate in specification and test plan reviews.
- Architect and implement complex RTL designs.
- Scope third party IP requirements and solicit vendors.
- Integrate CPU and other relevant IPs into the CPU sub-system.
- Collaborate with the physical design team to resolve implementation and timing issues and to optimize power.
- Analyze code coverage and provide feedback to the verification team to achieve coverage closure.
- Perform diagnostic and post-silicon validation tests, as well as assist with software bring-up in the lab.
Required Qualifications:- 10+ years of ASIC design experience with a demonstrable track record of RTL logic design in multi-million gate ASICs with Verilog or System Verilog.
- Experience in IP integration, specifically CPU IP into SoC.
- Knowledge of ARM/RISC-V/MIPS Architectures, Memory hierarchy, Cache coherency, Virtual memory, Multicore CPU operation
- Familiarity with AMBA/APB/AXI Protocol
- Familiarity with processor peripheral interfaces like SPI, eMMC, *MII, GPIO, I2C ....
- Hands-on experience in all aspects of the ASIC development process with proficiency in front-end tools and methodologies.
- Familiarity with low power design. UPF flow for defining power intent of chips with multiple power domains
- Previous experience with timing closure at high frequencies is a plus.
- Interest to explore AI architectures for convolution, transformer and other kinds of workloads
- Self-starter and highly-motivated to work in a dynamic start-up environment.
- B.S. (M.S. preferred) degree in Electrical or Computer engineering.
Reasons to consider joining Tensordyne:- Ground floor opportunity with the team; be part of shaping one of the most exciting new companies.
