Rivos is on a mission to build the best RISC-V enterprise systems in the world with class leading performance, power, security and RAS features. We are seeking Interconnect/Fabric Design experts to join our team in building the best RISC-V compute systems in the world.
Responsibilities
- Microarchitecture development and 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
- Validation - support test bench development and simulation for functional and performance verification
- Performance exploration and correlation - explore high performance strategies and validate that the RTL design meets targeted performance
- Design delivery - 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 large scale on-chip coherent or non-coherent interconnect/fabric architecture
- Knowledge of one or more on-chip network protocols: AMBA, AXI, CHI, ACE, Tilelink, APB or similar protocols
- Knowledge of cache coherent memory systems and interconnect
- Knowledge of system caches and directory snoop filter protocols
- Familiarity with different on-chip network topologies: mesh, ring, crossbar, etc
- Understanding of high performance and low power microarchitecture techniques and trade-offs
- Proficiency in SystemVerilog or Verilog RTL coding
- Knowledge of logic design principles along with timing and power implications
- Experience with simulators and waveform debugging tools
Education and Experience
- PhD, Master’s Degree or Bachelor’s Degree in technical subject area.
