Principal Silicon Architect

Job Responsibilities:-

• Define end-to-end SoC architecture, including compute, interconnect, memory, IO, and accelerators
• Translate product requirements into scalable silicon architectures and technical specifications
• Lead Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) methodologies to ensure traceability from requirements to implementation
• Develop and own architecture and micro-architecture specifications (interfaces, data flows,clocking, power)
• Perform and guide PPA (performance, power, area) modeling and trade-off analysis
• Define and integrate SoC security architecture, including secure boot, root of trust,and isolation mechanisms (e.g.: TrustZone)
• Drive cross-functional architecture alignment across hardware, software, verification,and system teams
• Lead architecture reviews and influence key technical decisions
• Mentor engineering teams and drive best practices in architecture definitionand system modeling

Job Requirements:-

• Master's or PhD with at least 18+ years of experience in SoC architecture/design
• Expertise in SoC silicon architecture, including CPU subsystems, interconnects (AXI/NoC),and memory hierarchy
• Strong experience in hardware architecture specification development and system-level design documentation as well as requirement management
• Proven track record in PPA modeling, analysis, and optimization techniques
• Experience with MBSE methodologies and tools (e.g.: SysML, system modeling frameworks)
• Solid understanding of hardware security architecture (secure boot, root of trust, encryption, isolation)
• Proficiency in modeling and analysis tools (e.g., Python, MATLAB, SystemC)
• Experience facilitating cross functional team meetings to drive results and outcomes
• Knowledge in semiconductor industry/production (wafer, assembly, test)
• Strong ability to use analytical skills to solve complex problems
• Proven experience delivering complex SoCs from concept to silicon
• High potential candidates with strong motivation and demonstrated ability to grow into the role will also be considered
