SoC Design Engineer

Job Description

Advanced Design is always the first design team at Intel tackling the challenges of scaling technology to the cadence of Moore's Law.

We work with industry leading design and process technologists to enable breakthroughs in power, performance, and density as we enable our product design partners to bring world-class products to the market. Join us for a fast-paced, dynamic, and richly rewarding experience on the forefront of technology.

This position within the Advance Design Group oversees definition, design, verification, and documentation for SoC (System on a Chip) development. Determines architecture design, logic design, and system simulation. Defines module interfaces/formats for simulation. Performs Logic design for integration of cell libraries, functional units and subsystems into SoC full chip designs, Register Transfer Level coding, and simulation for SoCs. Contributes to the development of multidimensional designs involving the layout of complex integrated circuits. Performs all aspects of the SoC design flow from high level design to synthesis, place and route, timing, and power to create a design database that is ready for manufacturing. Analyzes equipment to establish operation infrastructure, conducts experimental tests, and evaluates results. May also review vendor capability to support development.
