E-core Senior CPU Physical Design Engineer

About This Role

• We created the Intel Atom Processor (E-Core), a disruptive technology that enables a broad range of devices including entry PC's, smartphones, modems, 2 in 1 laptops, micro-servers, and other Internet-of-Things IoT devices.
• You will be part of a team, participating in the design of a future generation high performance Intel Atom microprocessor.
• This role requires an engineer with strong analytic and problem solving skill, an ability to communicate well, and willing to share and discuss issues.
• You will work on implementation of CPU Core blocks from synthesis through post-layout verification and tapeout.
• You will develop the custom constraints for driving synthesis and Auto-Place and Route APR tools to implement and optimize the design to meet aggressive timing and power goals.
• You will work closely with micro-architecture, RTL, and custom circuit teams to converge the design to project targets.
• The responsibilities will be tailored to the candidate's skills and expertise and will include several of the following, but not be limited to: Logic synthesis and place and route for CORE IP blocks.
• Performing floor-planning and routing studies and implementation Block/sub-system level timing analysis.
• Work on low power techniques and power reduction in sub-system.
• Physical verification closure of block/sub-system.
• Scripts writing for data analysis and recipe creation.
• Strong analytical ability, problem solving and communication skills.
• Ability to work independently and at various levels of abstraction.
• Strong communication and team work skills.
• Capable of working in a high performing team to deliver the results required from the organization.
