Graphics (GPU) Hardware Project Engineer

Partner with all engineering teams (inside/outside GPU HW) on definition, execution and delivery (of GPUs to products) Act as technical liaison between GPU HW engineering and PdM, understand the challenges on each side, and encourage communication, cooperation, collaboration & compromise Participate in Product/Roadmap planning (PdM + Engineering) using cost/benefit analysis & trade-offs (e.g. NRE vs. AUC) Contribute to strategic direction of GPU cores (research, architecture, feature set) for long-term success Quickly learn new technical domains/topics that arise in GPU/AP products/methods/markets, from transistors to tools to competing ecosystem solutions Ownership of technology development, execution, and communication across technology teams Drive industry best practices for ASIC engineering incl. efficient development across large-scale worldwide teams Resolve key technical issues across teams with end goals of efficiency & best product possible Organize & drive technical mtgs for brainstorm/problem solving, tiger teams, summits & system high level design reviews Ensure that new proposals are being vetted & filed for potential patent applications Interact daily with many individuals on worldwide team (onsite/online) to ensure forward progress & issues are identified early Drive resolution via technical (not political) priorities when there are conflicts and tradeoffs within & outside GPU team Respond efficiently to Business Unit (BU), Chipset PE, Chipset/GPU PdM & Customer requests/queries Represent the GPU eng team in SOC forums & upper mgmt. meetings/discussions (incl. written & verbal communication) Communication of technical solution/options internally and externally (chipset/customer/counterparts) as needed Availability in key meetings (online & on-site) pertinent to the technical discussions above Engineering risk and impact analysis to make the best decisions Drive and mandate quality goals in conjunction with PM Ensure that the product meets/exceeds the market needs (as defined by PdM) Take risks (wisely) when necessary to “compete strongly” in the given market Define and deliver innovative ideas/initiatives and work on broadly defined self-guided opportunities Follow defined processes but also drive process improvements (as needed) based on experience Establish single points of truth/reference, but minimize single points of failure, in our processes Contribute to “lessons learned” and project retrospectives from the technical mgmt perspective Actively support diversity within our teams, and in the Company 10+ years combined Hardware/Software/System Engineering or related work experience Bachelor's degree in Electrical/Computer engineering, Computer Science, or related field Master's degree (in above fields) reduces the work experience requirement by 1 years PhD (in above fields) reduces the work experience requirement by 1 years (in addition to above) Strong communication skills over various forms/media (F2F, Teams chat/mtgs, PowerPoint, emails) Comfortable in technical discussions spanning software, hardware, system, and productization domains 15+ years combined Hardware/Software/System Engineering or related work experience, with above adjustments 5+ years Graphics HW (GPU) work experience or equivalent applicable knowledge 2+ years as Project Engineer or System Architect for projects with >50 people contributing Demonstrated ability to take business goals into technology requirements and product design to achieve those goals Self-driven to identify issues & risks, then define & deploy action plans to address/mitigate those High level of focus & engagement on ensuring successful projects, meeting/surpassing goals in the face of obstacles Strong knowledge and experience on all aspects of ASIC design flow (Arch, uArch, RTL, model, verification, synthesis, physical design) in leading technology nodes Depth of knowledge in at least one of the aspects of ASIC design listed above Breadth of the role (ownership vs. support) will depend on candidate qualifications and business needs Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field and 8+ years of Software Engineering, Hardware Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience. OR Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field and 7+ years of Software Engineering, Hardware Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience. OR PhD in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field and 6+ years of Software Engineering, Hardware Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience.
