Your role

In this position, you will be involved in the training, design, and development of next-generation SOC/CPU for a wide range of Intel products.

Your responsibilities will include some of the following but are not limited to:

• Assist design unit owner in Register Transfer Level RTL model functional validation.
• Use CAD tool extensively to simulate logic behavior and circuit performance and direction of physical design for next-generation, deep sub-micron embedded circuit solutions.
• Verify the circuit behavior against the original simulation model and the first silicon
• Define VLSI Structural Design methodology and develop design flows.
• Implement structural physical designs, such as synthesis, floor planning, power-grid, and clock tree designs, timing budgeting, closure, place and route, RC extraction, and integration.
• Verify structural physical designs, such as functional equivalency, timing/performance, noise, layout design rules, reliability, and power
• Develop Analog IP on the next-generation deep submicron process for Intel's SOC, perform tasks related to Very-large-scale integration VLSI complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor CMOS IC design, Solid state physics, and physical layout. Such tasks may include:
  • The circuit design of high-speed clocking related circuits [phase-locked loop PLL
  • delay-locked loop DLL, bandgap] or high voltage input/output IO [double data rate DDR/LPDDR
  • General-purpose input/output GPIO, OPIO]
• Responsible for Integration of Third-party IPs -- Synthesis, functional and/or timing convergence, and pre and post-si debug of IPs developed by various external vendors as well as within the company.
• Handling of signals crossing power planes and clock domains, industry-standard protocols including hardware and software details dealing with Memory LPDDR, storage eMMC, SATA, UFS, peripherals PCIe, USB, and MIPI interfaces in SOC devices.
• System integration dealing with Si/ Platform/ FW/ MW/ drivers/ OS/ Apps on Android Windows-based tablets and phones.
