• • In this pivotal role as a Digital Design Engineer, Micro-Architect, Principal, you will be instrumental in shaping the future of AI hardware. Your primary responsibility will be the intricate micro-architecture and design of critical AI sub-system modules, with a specific focus on Single Instruction, Multiple Data (SIMD) architectures and advanced Hardware Execution Engines. This role demands a deep understanding of how to translate complex computational requirements into efficient, high-performance hardware designs.
• • A key aspect of your contribution will involve the definition and meticulous implementation of a Custom Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). You will collaborate closely with our System Architects to develop highly efficient C-Kernels that leverage this Custom ISA, ensuring optimal performance and resource utilization. This collaborative effort is crucial for bridging the gap between high-level software logic and the underlying hardware capabilities.
• • You will take complete ownership of the design lifecycle for your assigned modules. This encompasses the detailed design, comprehensive documentation, rigorous execution, and the ultimate delivery of fully verified RTL (Register-Transfer Level) code. Your designs must meet stringent targets for high performance, optimal area utilization, and exceptional power efficiency, aligning perfectly with the overall design specifications and project goals.
• • The scope of your work will extend to the design of the micro-architecture and RTL itself, followed by the critical stages of synthesis and logic and timing verification. You will be utilizing leading-edge CAD tools and working with advanced semiconductor process technologies to ensure the robustness and efficiency of your designs. This requires a forward-thinking approach to hardware design, anticipating future technological advancements.
• • Furthermore, you will be responsible for designing and implementing sophisticated logic functions specifically engineered to facilitate efficient testing and debugging processes. This proactive approach to design for testability (DFT) is paramount in reducing development time and ensuring silicon quality. Your expertise will also be called upon during the crucial silicon bring-up and validation phases for the blocks you own, providing essential insights and support to ensure successful product integration.
• • This role offers a unique opportunity to make a significant impact on the development of next-generation AI hardware. You will be working alongside a team of highly skilled engineers and researchers in a dynamic and innovative environment. Your contributions will directly influence the performance, efficiency, and capabilities of our cutting-edge AI systems, helping to drive the future of artificial intelligence.
