As a SoC Memory Architect, you will play a key role in shaping the future of our premium chipsets by defining and driving the development of innovative SoC memory and cache subsystems.
You identify, propose, and deliver new SoC memory architectures and features for premium mobile and related product platforms.
You contribute to high-impact deliverables, with the freedom to experiment and explore novel ideas to challenge existing norms and push the boundaries of what is possible.
You create detailed designs and specifications for memory subsystems, including memory interfaces, controllers, and caches.
You analyze PPA trade-offs and optimize memory subsystem performance, power consumption, and area utilization to meet system requirements.
You work closely with software, hardware, and validation teams to ensure memory subsystem designs meet system requirements and are properly integrated
You create and maintain detailed documentation of memory subsystem designs, including architecture, implementation, and verification plans.
You inspire high performance, mentor junior engineers, foster trust, and promote a culture of ownership culture and open communications.
You stay up-to-date with emerging memory technologies and recommend their adoption in SoC designs.
