Principal Engineer Power Architecture

Overview

Lead and mentor engineers in designing and delivering SoC power architectures. Define custom integrated circuit architectures across system design, software, and implementation, and translate them into detailed execution plans.

What you'll do

• Lead cross-functional collaboration with system hardware, system software, RTL design, DFT, physical design, foundry technology, and IP design teams to define robust SoC power architectures.
• Develop and evaluate SoC power-management hierarchies to recommend the optimal architecture.
• Assess switchable and multi-voltage domains, back- and forward-body biasing, and dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) to recommend effective power-management and reduction techniques.
• Define execution plans, robust methodologies, and clear documentation to guide implementation teams.
• Champion the development, deployment, support, and maintenance of state-of-the-art, scalable processes and methodologies using AI/ML and EDA technologies.
• Mentor and lead a high-performing engineering team.
• Perform all activities in a safe and responsible manner and support all Environmental, Health, Safety & Security requirements and programs.

What you'll need

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• 15+ years of semiconductor industry experience.
• 12+ years in technical leadership.
• 3+ years in people management.
• Deep expertise in SoC power-management architecture.
• Proven experience with early-stage (“shift-left”) power assessment strategies for SoCs.
• Broad understanding of system-, software-, and silicon-level power architecture solutions.
• Strong knowledge of power-optimization techniques for sub-nanometer foundry technologies.
• Expertise in industry-standard power-intent specifications, such as Unified Power Format (UPF).
• Exceptional leadership, project-management, and communication skills.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to resolve complex power and timing challenges.

Nice to have

• Experience with SoC design integration and implementation methodologies.
• Proven track record of delivering complex programs against ambitious schedules.
• Inspirational leader with a passion for mentoring talent and building high-performing teams at scale.
• Customer-focused, proactive problem solver who drives effective solutions.
• Commitment to continuous learning and championing the adoption of industry best practices.
