Senior Engineer, GPU RTL Power

What you'll do

• Execute power optimization strategies for GPU blocks and subsystems to improve energy efficiency.
• Define power-efficient design choices and PPA tradeoffs at the RTL and microarchitecture levels.
• Perform detailed RTL power analysis and root-cause investigations using industry-standard tools.
• Identify power bottlenecks and switching inefficiencies while evaluating impacts across various benchmarks.
• Implement low-power techniques such as clock gating, voltage scaling, and power gating.
• Align power optimization strategies with architectural intent and system-level performance goals.
• Document methodologies, results, and best practices for internal technical teams.
• Research emerging GPU technologies to advance internal power-optimizing techniques and processes.

What we're looking for

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field, or a Master's degree.
• At least 2 years of experience in the field.
• Hands-on experience in GPU/CPU architecture, microarchitecture, and high-performance digital design with PPA tradeoffs.
• Familiarity with RTL power analysis and optimization using tools like PowerArtist, PTPX, Empower, or equivalent.
• Working knowledge of SystemVerilog and ASIC design flow including RTL design, synthesis, timing analysis, and power optimization.
• Familiarity with low-power design techniques such as clock gating, power gating, and managing dynamic vs. leakage power tradeoffs.
• Proficiency in scripting languages such as Python or Perl.
• Authorization to access information subject to U.S. export control laws.
