We’re looking for a PHY architect to join the UCIe/HBM PHY architecture team. Does this sound like a good role for you?

In this position, you will be part of an architecture team that plans and executes the design for the next-generation UCIe and HBM PHYs in the Synopsys IP portfolio. The job entails working with senior architects to understand standard specifications, evaluate ideas, draft specifications, and enable a larger team of design engineers bringing new ideas into silicon. You’d leverage your understanding of computer architecture, mixed-signal design, off-chip signaling, RTL development, design-for-test, and logical verification to create leading-edge products. Supporting Synopsys’ customers is also an important part of the role. You will join a collaborative, multi-person engineering team engaged in similar activities on related UCIe and HBM PHY development projects.

Job Responsibilities:

· With the guidance of a senior architect, understand marketing, customer desires and standard specification and translate those into a set of product design features and functions of ongoing and future designs to create best-in-class products

· Generate the functional description for the product, creating specifications describing the interface components, operation, structure, and behavioral parameters

· Develop models representing the performance features of interface design sub-components

· Solve design execution problems tied to the product definition

· Perform feasibility studies through the evaluation of trial designs

· Document results, conclusions, and technical insights into performance, power, area, and functional parameters

· Interact and communicate with design teams performing digital design and verification, analog circuit design and verification, and layout design

· Support customers in their implementation of the product

Key Qualifications and Experience:

· Possesses a minimum of 8+ years of related experience or an advanced degree with 6+ years of related experience.

· Understands high-speed interface principles, such as mixed-signal design and off-chip signaling

· Skilled in generating and supporting documentation through written specifications, and communicating those specifications within a design team and to external customers

· Well-versed in RTL logic design, simulation, test planning, and verification of complex integrated circuit components

· Knowledgeable in design-for-test, timing analysis, power analysis, behavioral modeling, and synthesis constraints

· Able to work across a multi-site team to communicate ideas, understand problems, and find solutions to create a leading-edge design.

· Skilled in troubleshooting and debug of mixed-signal interfaces

· Knowledge in UCIe and HBM protocols and JEDEC spec is a plus

· Able to work autonomously with high-level guidance
