TL;DR · CPU Implementation Engineer

As a CPU Implementation Engineer within the Silicon Engineering Group, you will focus on CPU block-level implementation tasks. You will collaborate closely with Micro-architects to define memory subsystems while performing critical feasibility studies and making trade-offs regarding area, frequency, performance, and power to balance pipeline stages effectively. Your daily responsibilities include driving 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 role requires technical proficiency in Perl or TCL scripting and a deep understanding of high performance microprocessor architecture, logic design principles, and low power microarchitecture techniques. You will apply these skills within the context of deep sub-micron technologies and device physics to solve complex hardware challenges related to processor design and physical implementation for advanced silicon products.

What you'll do

  • Collaborate with micro-architects to define memory subsystems and balance pipeline stages.
  • Perform feasibility studies and trade-off analysis for area, frequency, performance, and power.
  • Drive the RTL-to-GDS flow through synthesis and place-and-route processes.
  • Meet ambitious targets for power, performance, and area during physical design.
  • Implement and validate physical design aspects including timing, reliability, and testability.
  • Develop scripts using Perl or TCL to support engineering workflows.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum BS degree and 3+ years of relevant industry experience.
  • Experience with scripting in Perl or TCL.
  • Familiarity with high performance microprocessor architecture (preferred).
  • Knowledge of logic design principles along with timing and power implications (preferred).
  • Understanding of low power microarchitecture and implementation techniques (preferred).
  • Design experience in deep sub-micron technologies and device physics (preferred).
  • Experience using synthesis & place-route tools (preferred).
