• Investigate and address power inefficiencies, providing actionable feedback to the RTL design team.

Minimum Qualifications

• Demonstrated experience with RTL-to-GDSII design flow usage and development in advanced technology nodes (7nm and below).
• Expertise in low-power implementation and signoff, including power gating, multiple voltage rails, and Unified Power Format (UPF) usage.
• Proven experience in power analysis and reduction utilizing industry-standard tools such as PrimeTime PX/PrimePower.
• Proficiency in scripting languages, with a strong emphasis on Python and ML/AI frameworks.
• Working knowledge of RTL design principles.
• Experience in RTL power optimization using specialized tools like Power-Artist.
• Ability to learn quickly, explore new ideas, and iterate rapidly to achieve optimal results.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with synthesis and Place and Route (PnR) flows.
• Experience analyzing Intellectual Property (IP) design for power characteristics and building run-time estimation models for use by software/firmware teams.
• Skills in data analysis and data modeling, including the application of machine learning approaches.

Education

• Must Have: Bachelor degree in Electrical/Computer Engineering or Computer Science
• Master's Degree preferred but not required
