In short
We are seeking a highly motivated Senior Engineer with 5-6 years of experience to drive pre-silicon power analysis, optimization, and silicon correlation for next-generation DSP and NSP architectures. This role involves evaluating power estimation tools, identifying optimization opportunities, and correlating silicon measurements with pre-silicon estimates.
Responsibilities
- Evaluate and compare pre-silicon power analysis and estimation tools.
- Analyze tool methodologies and recommend enhancements.
- Drive adoption of best-in-class capabilities for power optimization.
- Perform workload-level and block-level power analysis for DSP/NSP subsystems.
- Identify power hotspots and optimization opportunities across architecture, RTL, and software layers.
- Measure and characterize performance and power behavior on silicon platforms.
- Correlate silicon measurements with pre-silicon estimates and investigate mismatches.
- Develop methodologies and automation to improve power prediction accuracy and correlation efficiency.
- Analyze packet flows, data movement, memory traffic, and workload behavior.
- Collaborate with architecture, design, software, performance, and silicon validation teams.
- Generate technical reports and present findings to stakeholders.
Requirements
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
- 5-6 years of experience in power analysis, performance characterization, silicon validation, architecture analysis, or related areas.
- Strong understanding of processor and SoC architecture fundamentals.
- Experience with pre-silicon environments (simulation, emulation, performance models, power models).
- Experience with silicon performance and power characterization.
- Understanding of performance-per-watt tradeoffs and power optimization techniques.
- Familiarity with scripting and automation using Python, Shell, Perl, or similar languages.
- Strong analytical, debugging, and problem-solving skills.
- Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration abilities.
Desired Qualifications
- Experience with DSP, AI/ML accelerators, vector processors, or heterogeneous compute architectures.
- Knowledge of power modeling, power estimation methodologies, activity-based analysis, and PMU-based profiling.
- Understanding of packet/data flow analysis, memory hierarchy, bandwidth utilization, and workload characterization.
- Experience correlating simulation, emulation, or modeling results against silicon measurements.
- Experience working with large-scale performance and power datasets and visualization tools.
