GPU RTL Design Engineer — High-Impact Micro‑Architecture

Lex; Greater London; On-site; GBP 70,000 - 110,000; Full time

Job summary

Apple UK’s RTL Design team at the GPU Design Centre seeks a senior engineer to refine GPU micro-architectural specifications and collaborate with architecture, physical design and verification teams to identify issues early in the flow.

You will implement the micro-architecture with cutting-edge technology nodes, balancing energy efficiency, performance and area while meeting project schedules. You will review power reports, resolve timing issues and ensure robust QoR as the design matures.

Qualifications

• Experience in complex IP design with RTL Verilog/VHDL.
• Understanding of implementing modern design techniques.
• Hands on experience with energy-efficient and low-power logic design.
• Strong background in computer architecture including high-speed CMOS processors and related blocks.
• Well-versed in logic optimisation, synthesis, timing analysis.
• Fluency with RTL Verilog/VHDL syntax & hardware modelling.
• Familiarity with logic simulation and debug environments and formal verification.
• Ability to work well in a team and be productive under tight schedules.
• Excellent communications skills, self-motivated and well-organised.

Responsibilities

• Refine GPU micro-architectural specifications with peers and cross-functional teams.
• Implement the micro-architecture targeting cutting-edge technology nodes with energy efficiency, performance and area in mind.
• Review synthesis and power reports, diagnose timing/power issues and maximise QoR.
• Collaborate with verification to ensure design correctness and thorough testing.
• Work with physical design to optimise layout in context for the system.
• Simulate and debug issues around the design as it integrates into the system.
