Description
At Apple, phenomenal ideas have a way of becoming great products and customer experiences very quickly. The industry is accustomed to Apple taping out the SOC's for our various products at a rigorous pace. In order to achieve this, Apple's best-in-class chip is driven by top notch design engineers who implement various blocks of the chip and deliver high quality components to SoC. This is a high transparency and critically important role and requires close working relationships with many groups and an organized approach to coordinate all tasks in parallel to hit schedules consistently with a quality design. Our position requires knowledge of interconnect fabrics and system memory hierarchy
- Design & Integration of coherent and non-coherent fabrics into a subsystem or SoC with good understanding of on-chip interconnect architectures (NoC topologies, crossbars, arbitration).
- Own all aspects of RTL development design, templating, scripting and RTL generation.
- Work and collaborate with other designers in the group to deliver results.
- Integrate common/shared IP blocks to design and optimize memories/hard macros required for the block
- Work with front-end synthesis/STA teams to ensure timing for the block is met
- Work with power/performance and functional verification team to ensure high quality of the block
- Work with multi-disciplinary groups to make sure designs are delivered on time and with the highest quality by incorporating proper checks at every stage of the design processMinimum of BS + 10 years relevant industry experience.Knowledge of cache coherency protocols (MESI, MOESI, directory-based coherence) and memory hierarchy.
