Joining: Immediate to 30 Days preferred
Employment: Full-Time
Role Overview
We are looking for an experienced CPU/GPU/SoC/IP Lead Engineer to lead the architecture, design, integration, and execution of complex semiconductor products. The candidate should have strong expertise in CPU/GPU architecture, SoC/IP development, RTL design, IP integration, and ASIC development, with proven experience taking projects from specification through tape-out.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead architecture, micro-architecture, RTL design and integration of complex CPU/GPU/SoC/IP blocks.
- Drive technical execution from specification, architecture and RTL through verification, sign-off and tape-out.
- Own IP integration and top-level SoC design, including interfaces, clock/reset, power and interconnect architecture.
- Work closely with Architecture, Design, Verification, Physical Design, DFT, Firmware and Post-Silicon teams.
- Drive PPA (Power, Performance & Area) optimization and design quality.
- Review design/verification plans and resolve complex RTL, integration and system-level issues.
- Drive technical discussions, identify risks and ensure timely project execution.
- Mentor senior/junior engineers and provide technical direction to the team.
- Support pre-silicon and post-silicon debug, including emulation and silicon bring-up where required.
Must-Have Skills
- Strong experience in CPU / GPU / SoC / IP design.
- Excellent understanding of Digital ASIC design and SoC architecture.
- Strong hands-on experience with Verilog/SystemVerilog and RTL design.
- Experience with IP integration, SoC-level integration and ASIC design flows.
- Good understanding of AMBA/AXI/CHI, NoC, memory subsystem and high-speed interfaces.
- Experience with Lint, CDC/RDC, synthesis, STA and RTL quality checks.
- Strong understanding of clock/reset, power management and low-power design concepts.
- Proven experience in leading technical teams and driving projects to successful delivery.
- Strong problem-solving, communication and stakeholder-management skills.
Preferred
- Experience with ARM/x86/RISC-V CPU architecture or GPU architecture.
- Experience with PCIe, DDR, UCIe, CXL or other high-speed protocols.
- Exposure to emulation, FPGA prototyping and silicon debug.
- Multiple successful tape-out / first-silicon experience.
- Experience working with global engineering teams and IP vendors.
Education
B.E./B.Tech/M.E./M.Tech in Electronics, Electrical, Computer Engineering, VLSI or a related discipline.
Immediate joiners / candidates with 0–30 days notice will be highly preferred.
