SoC Interconnect Technology Team Lead

Stack

Responsibilities

• ▹Lead the architecture and development of coherent and non-coherent interconnect fabrics for complex SoCs
• ▹Define and drive system-level interconnect strategies: topology, QoS, latency, bandwidth and power optimization
• ▹Collaborate with CPU, GPU, NPU, memory and system teams to ensure integration and performance scaling
• ▹Drive adoption and implementation of industry standards (e.g., AMBA AXI/ACE/CHI)
• ▹Own performance modeling, analysis and bottleneck identification across use cases
• ▹Guide microarchitecture, RTL design and verification strategy for interconnect IP
• ▹Lead debug and root-cause analysis of complex system-level issues
• ▹Mentor and grow a team of architects and engineers

Requirements

• ▹15+ years of experience in SoC architecture/design, with a focus on interconnects or system fabrics
• ▹Proven track record of delivering large-scale SoCs (mobile, battery-powered, or high-performance compute platforms)
• ▹Deep understanding of coherent interconnect protocols (e.g., AMBA ACE, CHI, CCIX, CXL)
• ▹Strong experience with non-coherent interconnects (AXI, NoC-based fabrics)
• ▹Expertise in performance analysis, modeling and system trade-offs (latency, bandwidth, power)
• ▹Solid knowledge of cache coherency, memory hierarchy and system architecture
• ▹Experience leading cross-functional teams and driving complex projects to tape-out

Nice to have

• ▹Experience with battery-optimized SoC design (low power, DVFS, power domains)
• ▹Familiarity with AI/ML accelerators, GPUs, or heterogeneous compute systems
• ▹Exposure to network-on-chip (NoC) design methodologies and tools
• ▹Experience with silicon bring-up and post-silicon validation
• ▹Strong leadership, communication and stakeholder management skills
