About the role

Ampere is seeking a motivated SoC Logic Design Engineer with a master’s degree to join our team. This position involves assisting in developing and exploring SoC micro-architectural features, collaborating with various teams, and integrating third-party IPs.

Responsibilities

  • Assist in developing and exploring SoC micro-architectural features across a range of IP/subsystems, with an emphasis on power optimization (static/dynamic) while meeting performance, area, and frequency targets
  • Collaborate closely with architecture, verification, silicon engineering, and performance teams throughout the design process to drive measurable convergence
  • Learn and contribute to RTL implementation and SoC integration, including practical ownership of design readiness for downstream flows
  • Support and/or build automation for RTL integration tooling, leveraging software development skills (e.g., scripting, robust build/integration utilities, regression support)
  • Collaborate with architecture team to define and document the microarchitecture and implement RTL for SoC blocks
  • Integrate third party IPs into the SoC subsystems
  • Collaborate with the design verification team for functional verification of the design blocks
  • Collaborate with the silicon engineering team for timing closure and other convergence activities of the design blocks

Requirements
