European Tech Recruit are working closely with a leading semicon company, based in Cambridge, who are looking for a talented CPU RTL Design Engineer to join their team.
In this role you will work with chip architects to conceive of the micro-architecture, and also help with architecture/product definition through early involvement in the product life-cycle.
Responsibilities as CPU RTL Design Engineer:
- Explore high performance strategies working with the CPU modelling team.
- Microarchitecture development / specification from early high-level architectural exploration, through micro architectural research and arriving at a detailed specification.
- Development, assessment and refinement of RTL design to target power, performance, area and timing goals.
- Help the design verification team execute on the functional verification strategy.
- Help verify that the RTL design meets the performance goals.
- Work with multi-functional engineering team to implement and validate physical design on the aspects of timing, area, reliability, testability and power.
Requirements:
- Thorough knowledge of microprocessor architecture including expertise in one or more of the following areas: instruction fetch and decode, branch prediction, instruction scheduling and register renaming, out-of-order execution, integer and floating point execution, load/store execution, prefetching, cache and memory subsystems.
- Knowledge of Verilog and/or VHDL. Experience with simulators and waveform debugging tools.
- Knowledge of logic design principles along with timing and power implications.
- Understanding of low power microarchitecture techniques.
- Understanding of high performance techniques and trade-offs in a CPU microarchitecture.
- Experience using a scripting language such as Perl or Python. xwzovoh
