About the role

Be part of a team that pushes boundaries, developing custom silicon solutions. Defines how next-generation systems balance high performance against physical and electrical constraints, bridging hardware IP, system software, and product requirements to design a holistic Limits Management subsystem.

Responsibilities

  • Define the SoC limits management by integrating hardware triggers, firmware policies, and software mitigations to protect silicon health.
  • Lead cross-functional teams to standardize critical mitigation features, including Power Telemetry, Estimators, and Droop Detectors, across all IP and hardware blocks.
  • Drive the long-term evolution of Sensing IPs (Voltage, Current, Temperature) and trigger mechanisms to address escalating current densities and industry trends.
  • Design real-time telemetry requirements to monitor silicon behavior and define performance-impact profiles for various mitigation strategies.
  • Drive organizational consensus on feature return on investment (ROI) and oversee Post-Silicon Validation to ensure physical silicon behavior aligns with architectural intent.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 15 years of industry experience in Power Management or Low-Power Design/Methodology.
  • Experience navigating the full product delivery cycle, from initial architecture definition through to post-silicon productization.
  • Experience with low-power architectures and advanced power optimization techniques.
