Responsibilities

As a Principal Design Architect, you’ll play a crucial role in defining the micro-architectures for the next generation of Automotive Microcontrollers.

Defining the micro-architectures for upcoming Automotive Microcontrollers, with a keen focus on:
Embedded Audio Subsystems (e.g., Voice Detection, Noise Cancellation, Interfaces)
Communication Subsystems (e.g., Ethernet, CAN, FlexRay)
Memory Subsystems (e.g., Flash, SRAM, RRAM, External DDR)

Collaborating closely with experienced Architects and RTL designers to evaluate, refine, and pioneer new ideas.

Analyzing domain-specific workloads to pinpoint performance and power bottlenecks, identifying opportunities for significant improvement.

Working effectively within a diverse and geographically dispersed team, leveraging your strong communication, influence, and negotiation skills.

Essential Requirements

A University Degree in Electronic or Computer Engineering.
Approximately 10+ years of experience and in-depth knowledge of digital micro-architecture concepts. You’ll also possess deep expertise in one or more specialized areas, such as:
Signal processing
Automotive communication protocols
CPU subsystem areas (e.g., bus infrastructure, memory subsystem design)

Experience with embedded CPUs (e.g., Arm Cortex, ARC, RISC-V) and AHB/AXI interconnects would be a plus.

A solid understanding of Functional Safety and/or cybersecurity concepts (e.g., ISO 26262, ISO 21434).

Proficiency in digital design and HDL capture (e.g., Verilog, VHDL, System Verilog).

Proficiency in software programming languages (e.g., C, C++).

Proficiency in scripting languages (e.g., Perl, Python).

Knowledge and experience with common performance benchmarks and workloads.
