TL;DR · Senior Manager, Soc Power Modeling

JOB TITLE: Senior Manager, Soc Power Modeling The Senior Manager, Soc Power Modeling joins the SOC Architecture team within the Computing and Graphics group. This role involves guiding SoCs from early concept through design execution and post-silicon stages to improve power performance and battery life for Client and handheld products. Key responsibilities include owning the power modeling effort for CG, performing detailed workload analysis to identify efficiency opportunities, and leading the modeling of complex power use case scenarios across the SoC roadmap. The successful candidate will utilize skills in semiconductor power architecture, power delivery, power integrity, and signal integrity analysis. Required competencies include experience with power evaluation, simulation, and silicon attainment. Desirable technical skills include C/C++ programming, automation and scripting languages, Excel, and software engineering concepts to drive architectural solutions and power convergence.

What you'll do

  • Own and drive the power modeling effort for Computing and Graphics.
  • Develop power and performance modeling frameworks for rapid prototyping and "what-if" analysis.
  • Perform detailed workload analysis to identify power efficiency opportunities in IP, subsystems, and SoCs.
  • Define power roadmaps and competitive targets for bounding box workloads with internal and external partners.
  • Coordinate with global teams to ensure power feature realization from concept through silicon attainment.
  • Lead modeling for complex power use cases and correlate estimates with pre-silicon and post-silicon data.
  • Create innovative power reduction initiatives and drive cross-organizational alignment for power convergence.
  • Optimize PC use cases for absolute power and relative performance per watt.

What we're looking for

  • Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and excellent attention to detail.
  • Ability to work effectively in large and small teams across multiple sites.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills to drive technical discussions.
  • Several years of relevant, commercial experience.
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in a related discipline (preferred).
  • Architect with deep understanding of semiconductor power architecture and power delivery (preferred).
  • Experience with power integrity/signal integrity analysis, droop management, and capacitor performance (preferred).
  • Experience defining and analyzing workloads and optimizing computing systems for performance and power efficiency (preferred).
