GPU RTL Designer

Summary

Do you love creating elegant solutions to highly complex challenges? Do you intrinsically see the importance in every detail? As part of our Silicon Technologies group, you'll help design and manufacture our next-generation, high-performance, power-efficient processor, system-on-chip (SoC). You'll ensure Apple products and services can seamlessly and expertly handle the tasks that make them beloved by millions. Joining this group means you'll be responsible for crafting and building the technology that fuels Apple's devices.

Together, you and your team will enable our customers to do all the things they love with their devices!

At Apple, we push our designs to the limit in order to make amazing products. We want to delight our customers with hardware that performs great while delivering long battery life. As part of the mobile GPU design team, you will collaborate with Platform Architecture, Software, Design Verification, and Physical Design teams to deliver RTL and specifications for GPU power management and SOC interface logic.

In addition, you will be responsible for integrating applicable IP from other teams to enable complete security, debug, and power management solutions!

Core Responsibilities:

• Develop and document micro architecture from high level architectural descriptions
• Deliver high quality design collateral, including RTL, to Physical Design teams
• Specify clock, power, and interface descriptions to ensure optimized design
• Assess and integrate IP from other Apple teams
• Close timing, power, area, and lint for design by optimizing RTL and constraints
• Drive performance, power, area, and functional goals
• Provide schedules to IP teams and management
• Lead project milestones for on time delivery
• Collaborate effectively with IP teams spanning multiple sites

• BS + 10 years of relevant experience
• Experience in one or more of the following: logic optimization, synthesis, timing analysis, floor-planning, power intent descriptions, and clock domain clock crossings
• Experience with logic simulation and debug
• Experience in power management with CPUs, GPUs, or SOCs

• Ability to write one or more scripting languages
• Experience in Graphics hardware design
• Ability to write RTL in Verilog and/or System Verilog that meets timing, power, and performance goals
• Expertise in CDC, RDC, and UPF collateral
• Leadership experience with driving project milestones to completion
