SoC Architect - Western Digital Technologies
Milpitas, CA
About the Job
Job Description
We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced ASIC SoC Architect to join our dynamic team responsible for SoC Architecture of next-generation of Flash Controllers.
As an ASIC SoC Architect, you will be responsible for defining cutting-edge SoC solutions, with a particular focus on High-Speed interfaces and power architecture.
The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of SoC development flow, PCIe or UFS protocols, power management, and the ability to drive architecture convergence to deliver high-performance, low-power, and cost-effective solutions.
ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
- SoC architecture and definitions for SoC development
- Leading complex activities while having multiple interfaces
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define and refine SoC requirements, ensuring alignment with industry standards and customer needs.
- Working closely with the Design, Verification, DFT and Physical Design teams while guiding them
- Analyze Performance, Power and Area to architect efficient and high-performance solutions.
- Evaluate all aspects of the SoC flow from requirements, through detailed definitions, Design, Verification and to synthesis, Place and Route, timing and Power optimizations.
Qualifications
REQUIRED:
- BSc. in Computer Science or Computer / Electrical Engineering
- At least 10 years of experience in SoC architecture
SKILLS:
- Extensive experience in SoC architecture, power management and full ASIC flow.
- Proven track record of driving architecture convergence in complex semiconductor designs.
- Proficiency in ASIC design tools, simulation methodologies, and hardware description languages (HDLs).
- Solid understanding of power management techniques and low-power design principles.
- Capable of developing a wide system view for complex embedded systems
- Strong understanding of High-Speed interfaces (UCIe is strong advantage)
- Experience with Flash is an advantage.
- Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with a focus on performance and power optimization.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams.
