Digital ASIC / SoC Architect

Own the micro-architecture of a chip - block partitioning, datapath, interconnect and the power, performance and area trade-offs made before a line of RTL is written.

Full time8-18 yearsBengaluru, India · United States

THE WORK

What the role involves.

• Define the chip and SoC architecture - block partitioning, datapath, interconnect and memory hierarchy - before RTL begins.
• Own the power, performance and area budgets, and the architectural trade-offs behind them.
• Choose IP, interfaces and the micro-architecture the RTL and verification teams implement.
• Set the architecture sign-off criteria, and stand in front of customers on design-services programmes.
