Job Info

Meta is hiring ASIC Power Engineers within our Infrastructure organization to work on low level power designs. We are looking for individuals with experience in power modeling for ASICs (architecture to silicon), developing flows around EDA tools, and low-power design to build efficient System on Chip (SoC) and IP for data center applications.

ASIC Engineer, Power Responsibilities:

• Define the power specification at system and module level for Idle, TDP, Typical use cases.
• Develop power modeling infrastructure in Python/C++.
• Work with or develop architectural simulators in order to model performance and power.
• Build power estimation flows at various levels of abstraction: C-model, RTL, Gate, Layout.
• Optimize design for low-power with the understanding of system level concepts.
• Evaluation and Implementation of low-power design techniques at different levels of abstraction.
• Power characterization on silicon: idle, TDP, use case power & debug power issues on silicon.
• Partner with vendors to drive low-power requirements for SoC interfaces such as LPDDR, PCIe, etc. Partner with EDA tool vendors to select and deploy the appropriate power estimation tools.
• Collaborate with internal HW/SW Co-design, Architecture, Design, DV, and Emulation teams for power flows, optimization and estimation.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience. Degree must be completed prior to joining Meta.
• 3+ years of experience with modeling and design with C++/Python or an equivalent high level language.
• Experience with EDA tools and scripting languages (Python, Tcl) used to build tools and flows for complex environments.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with architectural performance and power models at SoC and system level.
• Understanding of ASIC design process and knowledge of leakage and dynamic power, and impact of environment and manufacturing process on power.
• Knowledge of front-end and back-end ASIC tools.
