Department: Semiconductor Engineering

Description

Envision Employment Solutions is currently looking for a SoC System Architect for one of our partners, an IT Services and IT Consulting company.

THE ROLE

Before a line of RTL is written, someone has to decide what the chip should be. You'll define system architecture for processor based SoCs with a strong focus on AI performance, modelling options, weighing power against performance, and setting the direction that design teams build on.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Define system level architecture for ASICs and SoCs, including processor subsystems
• Build and use SystemC and performance models to evaluate architecture options
• Analyse and optimise AI workload performance on the target architecture
• Drive power analysis and performance, power and area trade offs at system level
• Evaluate RISC based cores and other microprocessor options
• Work with EDA flows and design teams to make sure the architecture is implementable
• Write architecture specifications and guide teams through implementation

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• 10+ years of experience in SoC, ASIC or microprocessor architecture
• Strong SystemC modelling and performance analysis experience
• Knowledge of RISC architectures and CPU microarchitecture
• Experience with AI or ML accelerator performance analysis
• Solid understanding of power analysis and EDA flows
• Strong specification writing and communication skills

YOU'LL THRIVE HERE IF YOU

• You enjoy asking what the chip should do before asking how
• You back architecture choices with models and data, not opinion
• You're excited by how AI workloads are reshaping hardware
• You can explain complex trade offs to both engineers and managers
• You want to set the direction, not just follow it
