CPU Implementation Engineer
As a CPU Implementation Engineer, you will drive or participate in the following:
• Work with micro-architects to help define the micro-architecture and assist with design feasibility and power, performance, and area (PPA) trade-offs
• Drive RTL-to-GDS design convergence through microarchitecture and logic (RTL) optimizations using synthesis and place-and-route tools targeting ambitious goals for PPA
• Responsible for block-level design delivery along with closure of backend flows, electrical requirements, and improving silicon yield
• Work closely with internal CAD and PD methodology teams on industry-standard synthesis/PNR tool features and optimizations and their adoption in CPU design
• Work with x-functional top-level teams on the aspects of CPU floorplan, timing, power, reliability, and testability
• Work closely with custom IP teams to define and co-optimize memory macros, library standard cells to improve design PPA
