You have a global mindset and ability to work in a multi-site environment are keys to being successful in this role.

Key Responsibilities

• Early architectural/performance exploration through micro architectural definition and design.
• Optimize the design to meet power, performance, area and timing requirements.
• Write easily readable and synthesizable Verilog RTL.
• Run some unit level testing to deliver quality code to the Design Verification Team.
• Create assertions to improve coverage and cover points to analyze coverage of the design.
• Create well written block level design documentation.
• Participate in post silicon functional and performance debug and tuning.

Preferred Experience

• Proven experience designing logic blocks in CPU, GPU, NOC, or cache designs.
• Excellent knowledge of Verilog and System Verilog
