The NoC Interconnect Design Engineer and Architect joins the multi-disciplinary NoC bus team to manage everything from early product specification and analysis to final RTL delivery for SoCs. This individual will create micro-architecture bus component specifications, analyze performance results, deliver RTL, and run tool flows while evaluating new IPs and driving protocol deployments. The role involves defining system-wide guidelines for IP interoperability and supporting verification, silicon validation, and software teams. Key technical requirements include expertise in various bus protocols like AHB, AXI, and CHI, as well as knowledge of network on chip, synthesis tools, STA, Lint, and power tools. Candidates must perform architecture tradeoff analysis regarding performance, power, and area while troubleshooting RTL design, FPGA, and post-silicon debug. Familiarity with CPU architecture is also considered a significant advantage for this role.
