SoC Power Modeling Engineer

What you'll do

• Model power dissipation and power delivery for various SoC IPs including AI/ML accelerators, CPUs, and graphics.
• Establish voltage-frequency operating points for DVFM states across multiple system components.
• Model power dissipation specifically tailored to various customer use-cases.
• Determine peak current requirements and power rail specifications for upcoming generations of SoCs.
• Partner with lab and test teams to correlate power models with actual hardware data.
• Collaborate with technology, validation, and product engineering teams to establish pre- and post-silicon design points.
• Model thermal control loops and throttling mechanisms to optimize power efficiency.

What we're looking for

• A bachelor's degree in a relevant field.
• Minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience.
• 3+ years of relevant experience, programming skills, and understanding of low-power digital design and power fundamentals (preferred).
• Understanding of SoC power modeling, current demand, and electrical properties of on-die PDN, power gating, and system power delivery (preferred).
• Skills in scripting, data analysis, and experience with EDA tools (preferred).
• Understanding of VLSI design flow and CMOS technology (preferred).
• Extensive background in EE (preferred).
• Ability to model thermal control loops, throttling mechanisms, and use physical design tools for power optimization (preferred).
