As a Design Engineer (Low Power) within the Integrated Wireless Technology team, you will focus on WiFi technology, SOC Design, and low power micro-architecture. You will be responsible for developing technical specifications from architectural requirements to deliver detailed designs while collaborating with verification teams on plans and debug phases. Your daily work involves owning designs through the full ASIC development process, including RTL implementation, synthesis, timing closure, emulation, and post-silicon bring up. Key responsibilities include silicon power measurements, power correlation, and full chip debug using ARM IPs. You will utilize skills in Power Intent, power estimation tools, and reduction techniques. The role requires expertise in multi-domain clocking, AMBA bus protocols like AHB and APB, and AXI. Experience with PCIe, USB peripherals, and CPU subsystem-based design is also relevant to this technical domain.
