About this role
Business Line Description:
• AI & Chip Engineering team defines and develops System on Chip, ASIC’s, Digital and Analog IP’s for a wide range of products, including Automotive microprocessors, Application processors, Data Center and network processors.
Job Summary:
• Lead product execution for Automotive ASIL-B/D SoC’s & Data Center SOCs
• Work with Systems, Marketing, PE/TE and Arch engineering to define the part. Generate and analyze data to take right and cost effective architecture decision
• Work with IP, Technology, packaging partners to assess the right IP/packages and technology options for the part.
• Work with IP and SoC functions (frontend, verification, AMS, DFT, Emulation, Validation, Physical implementation) to understand and resolve inter/intra functional handoff and challenges.
• Oversee definition management and make sure the implementation complies with the requirements
• Work closely with downstream teams dependent on SOC, who are working on post-silicon activities, to make sure their needs are addressed
• Work closely with Test and Product engineering teams to enable productization.
• Work closely with post silicon evaluation teams (functional and analog Validation, Characterization, Application and Software teams) and address design issues.
• Work with Program management office for management attention and clearly articulate dependencies and help needed for timely execution of projects.
• Assess workload and resource demands based on complexity and create predictable project plans meeting customer requirements
• Mentor engineers across various functions
Key Challenges:
• Automotive SoC development pose additional challenges specific to implementation of safety mechanism
• Automotive SoC development requires ensuring very high quality and reliability, ensuring a very low ppm defectivity over an long product life time.
• The role includes leading the teams in a matrix organization, assimilating information from across functional teams and analyzing it in product context
• Understand impact of architecture on logical and physical realizability
• Working within resource and schedule constraints
Cross functional aspects:
• This role is primarily about leading cross functional teams
• During part definition is includes a close interaction with Business, Systems, Architects, third party IP vendors
• During execution a close interaction and decision making is required between Technology, packaging, IP, Architecture, Various implementation functions, Test and Product Engineering.
• Post silicon, close collaboration is needed with Software, Test and production engineering, Application and Field teams.
• Overall, Chip lead is central design point of contact for all cross functional teams associated with the part.
Job Qualifications:
• Bachelors in Engineering with at 15 years of design development experience, with at least 5 years of leading complete design and design functions.
• MS in Electrical Engineering preferred (higher level education may substitute for some experience).
• Experience in leading Global cross functional teams
• Experience in leading designs in smaller geometries desired
Job location:
• The role is based in Austin/US. This is a hybrid role with a few days in the office each week and the remaining days are work from home.
