Senior SoC Architect
Lead the architecture of high-performance, energy-efficient SoCs from concept through silicon bring-up. Define scalable chip and system solutions across multiple engineering disciplines.
Responsibilities
- Lead SoC architecture across IP architecture, design, verification, validation, firmware, security, power management, software, and IP development teams.
- Architect multi-chiplet connectivity, chip partitioning, package and board constraints, chip fabric, and subsystem requirements.
- Define top-level SoC structures, including interconnects, clock distribution, and power domains.
- Own the SoC architecture specification throughout concept, modeling, implementation, and silicon bring-up.
- Evaluate architectural and implementation alternatives and recommend solutions balancing performance, features, power, schedule, and cost.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
- At least 5 years of experience leading the architectural definition of high-performance SoCs from concept through production.
- Experience implementing multi-chiplet systems within silicon process technology.
- Experience with SoC architecture, including interconnects, memory hierarchies, and system-level reasoning.
- Experience writing architecture specifications.
Nice to have
- Master’s degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
- Experience with functional safety and hardware safety mechanisms, including ASIL-related goals.
- Experience defining security architectures, debug infrastructure, and secure boot sequences.
