Job Overview:Within the CE-Systems implementation team we support the delivery of soft IP to both internal teams & a large partner base, helping them achieve their goals & craft some of the most sophisticated SoCs of today!
We enjoy an unusually broad role, working directly with frontend teams to ensure partner success on the latest foundry nodes with highly configurable system IP. We are passionate about optimizing & defining PPA across this configuration space, to enable all possible use cases. This requires developing a deep understanding of the designs from our in-house synthesis, place & route flows and successfully mapping this knowledge into a partners' environment.
Spanning implementation flow & methodology development, partner support, implementation analysis & optimization, RTL design feedback, power analysis & many other challenges there's always opportunities to learn & develop!
Responsibilities:- Ensure delivered IP can achieve partner goals.
- Develop an understanding of design space PPA to guide early what-if analysis
- Identify optimization opportunities.
- Support team flexibility by keeping up to date with their latest issues & challenges.
Required Skills and Experience:- Master's degree or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or other relevant technical fields.
- Ownership of the technical delivery for a large project or program.
- Significant experience in & knowledge of the entire IC design flow, from RTL through to GDS2 on 5, 3 & 2nm nodes.
- The ability to communicate insights effectively to engineers both with & without an implementation background.
- Able to identify and solve emerging challenges, develop associated tooling & methodologies & promote their use with international teams.
- Solid scripting skills eg. TCL, Python, Perl, R.
"Nice To Have" Skills and Experience:- A wide range of programming, scripting & data presentation languages Eg. Tcl, sh, csh, make, R, C, C++, Java, JS, HTML, CSS, PHP, SQL, Perl, Python, Ruby, Svelte, ...
- Low power design techniques (power gating, voltage/frequency scaling)
- ARM SoC architecture
- System interconnect & protocols
- Verilog RTL design
- Data management, Artifactory, LakeFS, PostgreSQL, MySQL
In Return:A place in a welcoming team with competitive pay & benefits. This includes a 4-week sabbatical every four years atop of the standard 4 to 5 weeks holiday & national holidays.
