Low Power SoC Architect - Oulu

• Observe and think ahead: You work in interdisciplinary teams and develop mixed-mode ASIC architecture and micro-architecture, and guide the design team from concept to implementation.
• Reliable implementation: You help us to ensure the “First Time Right” of our IC Designs by managing requirements, developing ASIC reference model and closely collaborating with our verification and validation teams.
• Networked communication: You are part of an international and globally distributed team, working with System Architects and other project/platform stakeholders.
• Think holistically: Join the development until product release, where you support the characterization and validation of our IC Designs after tapeout.
• Conscientious coordination: You plan and delegate design tasks together with the ASIC team.

• Personality: High level of enthusiasm, creativity and willingness to work in international and interdisciplinary teams.
• Working Practice: Effective team player with focused and independent working style; Minimum 3 to 5 years of Industry experience or a fitting PhD are required.
• Required Experience:

• Deep Understanding of ASIC architectures, evaluation of architecture alternatives and tradeoff analysis based on power, performance and area.
• Requirement engineering.
• Practical experience on RTL (VHDL/Verilog) and/or Analog IC Design.
• Basic understanding of digital data processing.
• Basic skills in project management (planning, delegation, tracking...).
• Desirable experience:

• Modelling (Matlab, Simulink, SystemC) and pre-design architectural validation.
• Near-threshold design experience.
• Understanding of digital backend tools (synthesis, timing analysis, P&R).
• Languages: Proficient English language skills.
• Education: Degree (M.Sc./ PhD.) of electrical engineering, computer science or equivalent with outstanding results.
