CPU Power Delivery Engineer

Overview

Drive CPU power delivery and power integrity analysis and physical design implementation for high-performance CPU designs, working across design, physical design, package and technology teams to reduce risk and support silicon delivery.

What you'll do

• Own CPU power delivery and power integrity analysis across implementation and signoff, including static and dynamic IR drop, electromigration, and overall power integrity closure.
• Develop and drive power grid strategies, power planning, and optimization to meet CPU performance, power, and reliability targets.
• Debug and resolve complex power delivery issues in partnership with physical design, package, clock, and RTL teams.
• Review and guide floorplan, bump, strap, decap, and grid decisions to improve top-level CPU power robustness.
• Track power integrity risks, drive mitigation plans, and support signoff readiness for successful tapeout.

What you'll need

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or related field with 3+ years of hands-on experience OR Master's degree in a relevant field with 2+ years of hands-on experience with strong exposure to CPU or high-performance IP timing closure.
• Strong experience in CPU or high-performance IP power delivery, power integrity, or physical design.
• Solid understanding of IR drop, electromigration, decap strategy, power grid design, and signoff methodology.
• Hands-on experience with industry-standard tools such as RedHawk, PrimePower, Kelvin, and related power integrity or physical design tools.
• Proficiency in Tcl and at least one scripting language such as Python or Perl.
• Strong debugging, problem-solving, and cross-functional communication skills.

Nice to have

• Knowledge of scripting languages like Tcl, Perl, or Python for workflow automation in physical design.
• Proven ability to work effectively in dynamic, cross-geographical, and interdisciplinary teams.
• Enthusiasm for designing world-class CPUs that drive innovation and empower future technologies.
