About the Role

As a SoC Performance Architect, you will create performance and power models for the fabric NoC / DRAM controller / IO blocks for server-class SoCs, correlate models against RTL behavior, prototype ideas and help productize performance/power features for future SoC designs.

Responsibilities

• Conduct RTL performance verification, including creation of verification plans and directed tests/checkers.
• Develop SoC performance/power models for blocks such as interconnect NoCs, distributed system caches, memory controllers, and IO controllers.
• Verify model correctness by writing unit-tests and debugging mismatches against expectations.
• Identify ideas for improving the SoC’s performance/power characteristics, prototype them in the performance/power model, and thoroughly characterize them.
• Work with architects and RTL developers to productize improvements identified through detailed studies.

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience in SoC performance/power modeling.
• Strong grasp of computer architecture fundamentals, especially in interconnects, traffic QoS, distributed caches, coherency flows, DRAM controller, and IO (PCIe) flows.
• Proficient in C++ and Perl/Python.
• Exposure to performance analysis and debug.
• Ability to independently identify, troubleshoot, and solve performance problems.
• 2+ years of experience in one or more system architecture technology areas and products (e.g., Power System, Shared Resource Management, Limits/Thermal Management, Hardware Islands).
