Silicon Power Engineer

Job Description

Job Description

The Rivos Power team is seeking a highly motivated engineer to develop and strategically drive state-of-the-art power modeling and optimization across our CPU and SoC blocks.In this role, you will have the opportunity to work in an innovative, collaborative, and high-growth environment. The ideal candidate will possess in-depth experience in the full spectrum of silicon power reduction. This includes a foundation in solid power analysis, performance benchmarking, and design optimization at all levels—from microarchitecture and physical implementation to standard power-performance benchmarking.

What You'll Do :

• Model and analyze power consumption for various workloads on custom silicon, working closely with the CPU Architecture, Performance, and Implementation teams to define overall power requirements.
• Analyze power and performance trade-offs, drive detailed cost-benefit analyses, and make recommendations for power reduction strategies.
• Collaborate with the Performance, Design Verification, and RTL teams to create targeted test vectors that model appropriate workloads and functionality scenarios for accurate simulation.
• Own the end-to-end power simulation process, including analysis, tuning, correlation, and presenting results to the Architecture, Logic Design, and Physical Design teams.
• Partner with the CAD and Physical Design teams to enhance power estimation methodologies, simulation flows, and regression analysis.

What You'll Bring :

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
