RISC-V CPU Microarchitecture / RTL

Tenstorrent

Santa Clara, CA • On-site, Remote

$100K - $500K/yr

Full-time

Posted 18 days ago


Key responsibilities

  • Define and develop microarchitecture specifications for the RISC-V CPU unit, including analysis for verification and PPA closure.

  • Responsible for RTL design, review, refinement, and verification to ensure quality and optimization for power, performance, and area.

  • Use AI tools to assist in CPU design processes and potentially mentor junior engineers based on experience level.


Job description

RISC-V CPU RTL owner will play a key role in developing next-generation CPU design. This position requires a deep understanding of CPU design including Architecture, RTL, Design Verification, Physical Design Flow. The ideal candidate will drive the unit specification, RTL design, and unit verification.

This role is Remote, based out of The United States or Spain.

We welcome candidates at various experience levels for this role. During the interview process, candidates will be assessed for the appropriate level, and offers will align with that level, which may differ from the one in this posting.

Key Responsibilities:

  • RISC-V CPU Unit Microarchitecture Specification: Define and develop microarchitecture specifications for the assigned unit (branch predictor, rename, instruction scheduling, vector execution, load/store, vector load/store support). The specification includes not only design, but also comprehensive analysis / strategy for verification and PPA (power, performance, area) closure.
  • RISC-V CPU Core Unit RTL Design: The candidate will be responsible for the quality of RTL including design verification and PPA closure. This includes writing RTL, reviewing / refining unit verification environment, applying right RTL optimization to control PPA.
  • AI Assisted Design Adaption: To maximize the team's output, the candidate actively uses AI tools to accelerate the CPU design process.
  • Mentoring Junior Engineers: depending on a seniority of the engineer, the engineer may mentor junior members in the team.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • Proven track record of designing high-performance CPU RTL for x86, Arm, POWER, SPARC, or RISC-V.
  • Deep understanding of design verification strategy and trade-offs for verification methodology (simulation, formal, various checkers, etc...)
  • Deep understanding of CPU microarchitecture and PPA trade-off.
  • Basic understanding of RISC-V Architecture including V-extension is preferred.
  • Proficiency in hardware description languages (HDLs) such as Verilog, SystemVerilog or VHDL.
  • Excellent problem-solving abilities and analytical skills.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to convey complex technical concepts to diverse audiences.
  • Ability to work collaboratively in a team-oriented environment and across multiple disciplines.
