CPU Design Engineer (Memsys/RISC-V/Out-of-Order cores)
Your role:
Join our team as a CPU Design Engineer and collaborate with our IP team, working closely with Guillaume Bru from the French Design Center, Xubin Tan from the Barcelona Design Center, and CPU Architects based in the UK – Ben Fletcher, Tariq Kurd, etc.
Your primary focus will be on the recently launched Out-of-Order core project and memory subsystems. You will also have the opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge design projects, participate in the development of next-generation architectures, and work with our proprietary CodAL language.
What we need:
-
Good knowledge of modern CPU architectures (ideally RISC-V) and micro-architectures, or alternatively track of records in the design of complex pipelined designs
-
Hands-on experience with at least one Hardware Description Language (preferably – Verilog/SystemVerilog)
-
Good knowledge of Out-of-Order core development and multicore cache coherence
-
Understanding of the CHI protocol
-
Sharp understanding of physical implications when designing at a higher level of abstraction (digital design synthesis and implementation flow)
-
Skills to design and optimize a module around a given PPA point
-
Practical expertise in versioning tools (preferably git)
-
Proficiency in scripting languages (Shell, Python, Tcl)
-
Practical usage of Linux
-
Proficiency in digital design synthesis and implementation flow
