About the Role

Join our Silicon Technologies group to help design and manufacture high-performance, power-efficient Graphics processors (GPUs). This role involves implementing complete chip designs from RTL to tape-out, requiring a blend of strategic engineering and hands-on technical work.

Responsibilities

  • Implement complete chip designs from RTL to tape-out.
  • Work with Front-End teams to understand design architecture for optimal floorplanning and physical implementation through early RTL feedback.
  • Use design knowledge and state-of-the-art physical construction and optimization flow to push performance, power, and Area (PPA) of GPU designs.
  • Integrate IP from internal and external vendors.
  • Specify and drive IP requirements in the physical domain.
  • Craft Floor-planning tools, P&R flows, global timing verification and Physical Design Verification Flows.

Requirements

  • Proven ability in all aspects of ASIC implementation including Synthesis, DFT insertion, Floorplanning, Clock and Power distribution, Place & Route.
  • Proficiency in all aspects of timing, electrical and physical signoff.
  • Experience with multi-voltage, power gated and power retention designs.
  • Practical knowledge with hierarchical design approach, top-down design, budgeting, timing and physical convergence.
  • Depth of expertise with large GPU designs (>20M gates) with frequencies in excess of 1GHz utilizing state-of-the-art technologies.
  • Detailed understanding of database management issues.
  • Familiarity with various process-related design issues including Design for Yield and Manufacturability, multi Vt strategies and thermal management.
