As a Logic design lead in the IBM Systems division, you will be responsible for the micro architecture, design and development of a high-bandwidth, low-latency on-chip interconnect (NoC) and chip-to-chip interconnect and integration into high-performance IBM Systems.
• Design and architect different interconnect topologies as driven by bandwidth, latency and RAS requirements
• Develop the features, present the proposed architecture in the High level design discussion
• Develop micro-architecture, Design RTL, Collaborate with the Verification, DFT, Physical design, FW, SW teams to develop the feature
• Signoff the Pre-silicon Design that meets all the functional, area and timing goals
• Participate in silicon bring-up and validation of the hardware
12+ years of relevant experience
- At least 1 generation of processor interconnect design delivery leadership (eg UPI, axi, amba, NoC).
- Expertise of SMP coherency
- Experience in different on-chip interconnect topologies (e.g., mesh, crossbar)
- Understanding of various snoop and data network protocols
