About The Role:
NUVIA is now part of Qualcomm. Our mission is to reimagine silicon and create computing platforms that will transform the industry. You will have the opportunity to work with some of the most talented and passionate engineers in the world to create designs that push the envelope on performance, energy efficiency and scalability.
In this role you will have the opportunity to define, develop and drive CPU timing closure for Oryon CPU Cores. As a CPU Physical Design Timing Engineer, you will work with microarchitecture and RTL design team to develop timing constraints, drive implementation of the designs to meet aggressive power, area and performance goals using industry standard tools/flows. One of your primary responsibilities will lie in coding scripts used with STA native tools and also useful in enabling CPU timing infrastructure and methodology impacting multiple CPU projects in Qualcomm. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with Qualcomm central timing technology & methodology team and also interact with CPU implementation team to drive PPA goals of CPU. You will have the opportunity to carve out a strong professional growth path working on industry leading technology nodes N2/N3.
Key Responsibilities Will Include:
