Lead CPU Cache Subsystem Design Manager

Google; Austin (TX); On-site; USD 240,000 - 333,000; Full time

Job summary

Google is seeking a seasoned CPU design leader to drive complex subsystems from specification to productization. You will guide RTL and micro-architecture efforts, coordinating with architecture, software, verification, power, DFT and physical design teams to deliver high-quality designs for next-generation CPU subsystems.

You will lead a front-end design team, evaluate trade-offs among performance, power and area, and define schedules that meet production milestones.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent practical experience.
• 15 years of experience in CPU design, including load-store unit logic/RTL and L2/L3 private/shared caches including micro-architecture definition and PPA processing.
• Experience leading and managing teams for modern processor subsystems with high speed, lower power design.
• Experience with front-end quality checks (e.g., Lint, CDC/RDC).

Responsibilities

• Lead and manage a team of design engineers working on CPU functional units, emphasizing on micro-architecture and RTL design for the next generation CPU subsystem.
• Review/propose performance enhancing micro-architecture features, and work with Software, Architect and Performance teams for trade-off studies. Communicate the pros and cons of micro-architecture enhancements.
• Deliver with plans on achieving project milestones and goals, towards a design that meets production quality on schedule.
• Work with the Verification team to ensure production of quality designs, and the physical design and power teams to meet frequency, power, and area goals.
• Focus on load-store-unit and cache subsystem design and optimizations with other parts of CPU to deliver best Performance, Power, Area (PPA).
