Role Overview
Design and Verify high-performance, low-power, high-reliability RISC‑V CPU cores for SoCs used in various edge products like automotive, IoT and mobile. Focus on microarchitecture, pipelining, and PPA (performance/power/area) optimization, with strong emphasis on functional safety and predictable performance. Deliver the first pass success of complex RISC-V CPU IPs using the latest advanced verification languages and methodology.
Key Responsibilities
Define and implement CPU microarchitecture (pipeline, execution units, control, ISA features)
Design efficient pipelined cores with robust hazard handling and latency/throughput optimization
Drive PPA trade-offs (frequency, area, power, determinism) across design stages
Develop and debug RTL (SystemVerilog/Verilog); support verification and bring-up; perform various design checks
Perform performance analysis / bottleneck identification and drive optimizations
Collaborate with physical design to meet timing, power, and area targets
Code assembly level and C testcases to verify the core
Drive (or participate in) the verification signoff using methodologies notably assembly language, UVM, assertions and formal verification.
Carry out a thorough analysis of existing defects, change requests and new features and develop related Testbench components and execute Test plan for the core.
Shall be capable to own & perform the complete sign off process for the core modules including 100% Code & Functional Coverage targets, Assertions, writing and updating test plans, Verification Guides, regression management etc.
