I korthet

As a Post Silicon Power and Performance Engineer at QT Technologies Ireland Limited in Cork, you will characterize, debug, and optimize CPU performance and power consumption in complex SoCs. This role involves defining methodologies, developing validation plans, recommending tuning optimizations, and providing feedback for future CPU generations based on real silicon analysis.

Ansvarsområden

  • Define and execute end-to-end performance and power analysis plans for complex CPU subsystems.
  • Debug issues found during pre-silicon, bring-up, validation, and production phases of SOC programs.
  • Define an optimization strategy that delivers world-class CPU workload performance.
  • Lead collaborative test approach with multiple teams, and track test execution to ensure features are performant and optimized on time.
  • Work closely with supporting teams in design, architecture, emulation, firmware, design verification, and software to ensure readiness for first silicon arrival, evaluation of IP performance upon silicon arrival, and evaluation of critical CPU workloads.
  • Develop deep knowledge of CPU architecture, SoC system architecture, system benchmarking techniques, and power reduction and optimization methods.
  • Drive technical innovation to enhance capabilities in CPU performance, system performance, and power validation including tools and script development, technical and procedural methodology enhancement, and various internal and cross-functional technical initiatives.

Krav

  • Bachelor or Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering.
  • 5 to 10+ years of practical experience in post silicon performance and power analysis of SoCs.
  • Strong programming/scripting skills (C/C++, Python scripts).
  • Strong analytical skills for test plan creation and debug.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills.
  • Must excel in a dynamic team working environment.
  • Must be a self-starter and be able to independently drive tasks to completion.
  • Proven understanding of CPU, memory hierarchy, system interconnects.
  • Knowledge and experience in ARM v8 and v9 specifications.
  • Solid grasp of ARM SoC concepts and architecture specifications like SMMU, GIC, Coresight-PMU and Timer architectures.
  • Extensive experience in critical industry CPU workloads and system interactions and dependencies.
  • Platform benchmarking and knowledge of performance workloads.
  • Performance analysis tools and analysis techniques.
  • Power analysis methods and comprehensive understanding of power consumption.
  • Power management methodologies and deep understanding of tuning and optimization.
  • Modern lab equipment, including DAQs, protocol/logic analyzers, oscilloscopes.
  • Bachelor's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 4+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
  • OR Master's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 3+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
  • OR PhD in Science, Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
