CPU Implementation Engineer

The CPU Implementation Engineer joins the Silicon Engineering Group to focus on CPU block-level implementation. In this role, you will collaborate extensively with micro-architects to define memory subsystems and perform critical trade-offs regarding area, frequency, performance, and power while balancing pipeline stages. You will drive the RTL-to-GDS flow through synthesis and place-and-route processes to meet ambitious physical design targets for timing, reliability, testability, and power. The work involves solving complex hardware challenges within high-performance microprocessor architecture and deep sub-micron technologies. To succeed in this role, you must possess expertise in logic design principles, low-power microarchitecture techniques, and device physics. You will utilize synthesis and place-route tools while applying scripting skills in Perl or TCL to navigate the technical demands of modern silicon implementation and hardware design.
