This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the development of next-generation semiconductor technology.

Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain architectural-level and/or cycle-accurate models for performance and power estimation.
• Analyze trade-offs between performance, power, and area (PPA) at the architecture and microarchitecture levels.
• Drive performance and power analysis early in the design cycle to influence architecture and design decisions.
• Collaborate with architecture and design teams to explore and evaluate different design options and trade-offs to optimize performance and power.
• Conduct detailed analysis to identify performance bottlenecks and power inefficiencies in chip architectures and microarchitectures.
• Perform power profiling and characterization of designs under various operating conditions and workloads.
• Develop and implement power reduction techniques at different design stages (e.g., clock gating, power gating, voltage scaling).
• Analyze and debug performance and power-related issues during simulation, emulation, and silicon bring-up.
• Generate comprehensive reports and presentations summarizing analysis results and providing actionable recommendations to the design teams, cross-functional teams and senior leadership.
• Stay abreast of the latest industry trends, tools, and methodologies in performance and power analysis.
• Contribute to the development and improvement of internal tools and flows for performance and power analysis.
• Collaborate with verification teams to define and execute performance and power validation plans.
• Validate model accuracy through correlation with RTL simulations, emulation, and silicon measurements.

Minimum Qualifications:

•    Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 3+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience.
OR
Master's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 2+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience.
OR
PhD in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field and 1+ year of Systems Engineering or related work experience.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• 5 to 8+ years of experience in performance and power analysis for ASIC or SoC designs.
• Strong understanding of computer architecture, microarchitecture, and digital design principles.
• Strong experience in developing and utilizing performance and power models using languages such as SystemC, Python, C++, or custom in-house frameworks.
• Proficiency in using industry-standard performance and power analysis tools (e.g., Synopsys PrimeTime PX)
• Solid understanding of power management techniques and low-power design methodologies.
• Experience with simulation and emulation environments.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to interpret complex data and draw meaningful conclusions.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
• Familiarity with silicon bring-up and post-silicon power/performance characterization is a plus.
• Experience with machine learning techniques for power/performance prediction is a plus.
• Experience with IOS and Xcode profiling/development is a plus
