GPU RTL Design Engineer — High-Performance ICs

Omaze; Greater London; On-site; GBP 85,000 - 120,000; Full time

Job summary

Apple's RTL Design team at the UK GPU Design Centre seeks an experienced RTL/GPU design engineer to refine micro-architectural specs and drive high-quality GPU IP from concept to implementation. You will collaborate with architecture, verification and physical design teams, implement the micro-architecture for cutting-edge nodes, and balance energy efficiency, performance and area within project schedules.

Strong background in RTL design, CPU/GPU blocks, timing analysis and power optimization is

Qualifications

• Previous complex IP design experience required.
• Understanding of implementing modern design techniques.
• Hands on experience with energy-efficient and low-power logic design.
• Strong background in computer architecture including one or more of: high-speed CMOS processor and controller blocks, cache controllers, bus-interface subsystems, integer and floating-point numeric units, digital filters, graphics processors, crossbar fabrics and other high-speed data-path control units.
• Well-versed in logic optimisation, synthesis, timing analysis.
• Fluency with RTL Verilog/VHDL syntax & hardware modelling.
• Familiarity with logic simulation and debug environments as well as 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 other designers.
• Collaborate with architecture, physical design and verification teams to identify potential issues as early as possible.
• Implement the micro-architecture, targeting cutting-edge technology nodes, balancing energy efficiency, performance and area constraints with project schedule, maintainability and coding elegance.
• Review synthesis and power reports, root-cause, resolve timing and power issues and ensure maximal QoR throughout your design.
• As your design approaches functional completion, work closely with the verification team to ensure the design behaves as intended and is tested thoroughly.
• Ongoing collaboration with the physical design team to help with adjustments to produce an optimal layout of the design in context.
• Once your design is integrated into the system as a whole, you'll be simulating and debugging issues both within and around your design.
