Experienced (8y+) Hardware Platform Architect to support Hardware Platform team.
You will work with the SoC teams, architects and platform leads to help define, influence, align and agree technical requirements and features for implementation.
Assess design trade-offs to develop the most optimal solution for our customers and development partners.
Requirements:
• Deep technical background and solid understanding of SoC architectures, memory interfaces and platforms involving embedded compute, AI or related fields
• Experience with high-speed interface standards (PCIe Gen5/6, LPDDR5/6) and peripherals for embedded compute
• Competence with embedded system board design, designing with complex LSI devices such as FPGAs and embedded firmware and power management ICs
• Experience of EDA tools for schematic entry, PCB layout from a board-design perspective (Cadence OrCAD CIS, Allegro PCB suite)
• Strong knowledge of PCB stack-up definition, controlled impedance routing guidelines for complex stack-ups and topologies
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to coordinate and influential across multiple teams and geographies
• Ability to drive progress in an ambiguous environment with evolving needs
Responsibilities:
• Engage with technical leads, product managers and SoC development teams to translate technical requirements into platform architecture specifications addressing the embedded compute and infrastructure or server market segments
• Evaluate architecture proposals and features and coordinate across Silicon Architects, hardware, software and platforms to align all parties to a common vision
• Liaise with board hardware designers to drive specifications into implementation for schematic and PCB aligning with Packaging SI and PI Engineers.
• Communicate technical concepts clearly and credibly across audiences ranging from individual hardware and software engineers to architects and technology leads
