OR Master's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 5+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience. OR PhD in Science, Engineering, or related field and 4+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.? Principal Duties and Responsibilities: Leverages advanced ASIC knowledge and experience to define, model, design (digital and/or analog), optimize, verify, validate, implement, and document IP (block/SoC) development for a variety of high performance, high quality, low power products. Creates highly advanced architectures, circuit specifications, logic designs, and/or system simulations based on system-level requirements. Collaborates across functional teams (e.g., software architecture, hardware architecture, product management, program management teams) to develop and execute an implementation strategy that meets system requirements and customer needs. Evaluates all aspects of highly complex process flow from high-level design to synthesis, place and route, timing and power use, and verification or similarly for custom circuit design/layout flow. Utilizes tools/applications (e.g., RTL to GDS Flow, Virtuoso) to execute and enable highly advanced architecture and design of multiple complex blocks/SoC or IC Packages. Writes detailed technical documentation for highly complex EDA/IP/ASIC projects; reviews technical documentation for junior engineers. Leverages advanced GPU knowledge and experience to architect, design, implement, verify, and/or optimize the performance and power of GPU cores. Builds functional model simulations, develops software, and tests for various graphics to verify correctness and ensures highly advanced performance and power goals are met. Designs, programs, and runs complex, comprehensive graphics tests using tools for large subsystems to ensure high-quality functionality, performance, power, and stability and identify issues. Facilitates collaboration with third-party vendors, external users, and across organizations to guide implementation and ensure alignment with needs and goals. Develops critical driver and compiler software to support the GPU products. Writes detailed technical documentation and feature descriptions for highly complex GPU projects to guide users and/or customers to implement output; reviews technical documentation for junior engineers. Level of Responsibility: Provides supervision/guidance to other team members. Decision-making is significant in nature and affects work beyond immediate work group. Requires verbal and written communication skills to convey complex information. May require negotiation, influence, tact, etc. Has a moderate amount of influence over key organizational decisions (e.g., is consulted by senior leadership to make key decisions). Tasks do not have defined steps; planning, problem-solving, and prioritization must occur to complete the tasks effectively. #J-18808-Ljbffr Spectraforce Technologies
