As a CPU Power and Thermal Management Architect within the CPU Engineering team, you will lead the development of micro-architecture and high-level specifications for high-performance, low-power devices. You will collaborate with hardware, software, and firmware teams to define product requirements, perform performance exploration, and integrate system features into products. Your daily work involves designing solutions for boot architecture, idle power management using clock and power gating, active power management through dynamic voltage and frequency scaling, and limit and thermal management via control loops. You will utilize expertise in SoC architecture, logic design principles, and timing implications to solve complex problems across datacenter server, mobile, compute, and auto SoCs. The role requires technical documentation skills and a deep understanding of coherent CPU systems and various power management techniques like APCI and PSCI.
