Job Overview

• Design adaptive power management controller, on-chip sensor controller and digital power meter.
• Perform RTL design, simulation, synthesis, timing analysis, lint check, clock domain crossing check, conformal low power check, and formal verification for IP blocks.
• Work closely with technology/circuit design team to close IP block specification/requirement.
• Work closely with verification/physical design team to complete the IP design implementation.
• Support SoC team to integrate low power / power management IP solution into wireless SoC chips and front-end design flows.
• Work closely with system/software/test team to enable the low power feature in wireless SoC product.
• Work closely with system/software/test team to enable functional safety feature in automotive SoC product.
• Create/Enhance low power methodologies covering entire design cycle from RTL to GDS. Analyze how a new methodology will affect different phases of the design/verification cycle and work on fixing any issues.
• Provide feedback for low-power chip and system architecture.
• Understand and perform block & chip-level power analysis.
• Understand and create block-level power models.

Minimum Qualification

• 3 years of experience doing low power digital ASIC design.
• Familiar with ASIC front-end design process and related flow, including u-arch, RTL coding, simulation, synthesis, STA.
• Understanding of electrical engineering concepts, circuit analysis and logic design skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Previous experience in AVS (adaptive voltage scaling) desired.
• Familiarity with advanced low power techniques and tools such as UPF, CLP, power aware DV and high speed clocking desired.
• Proficiency in Verilog/System Verilog coding, verification techniques, and scripting language, such as: Perl, Python, Tcl, and Make etc.
• Good understanding of SoC architecture/micro-architecture.
• Understanding of automotive functional safety standard ISO 26262 and analysis technique (FMEA/FMEDA) is a plus.
• Strong debugging capabilities at simulation, emulation, and Silicon environments, including ability to design interesting debug experiments.
• Collaborate closely with cross-function team to research, design and implement performance and power management strategy for product roadmap.

Education Requirements

• Masters or PhD in Electrical or Computer Engineering
