LEAD BEHAVIORAL MODELING ENGINEER – LATTICE SEMICONDUCTOR INDIA

Location:
Hyderabad / Pune / Chennai (India)

JOB SUMMARY

We are seeking a Lead Behavioral Modeling Engineer to join Lattice Semiconductor's FPGA Architecture & Design team. You will lead development of behavioral and architecture models for next-generation low-power FPGA fabrics, own power and timing characterization, and mentor a small modeling team.

This is a technical leadership role focused on modeling methodology and design optimization—not traditional product RTL design or verification.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Develop and maintain behavioral models for FPGA fabric elements (CLBs, routing, interconnects, logic blocks)
- Own power and timing characterization across PVT (Process, Voltage, Temperature) corners
- Build Python-based automation flows for rapid design exploration and PPA analysis
- Lead modeling methodology improvements and drive continuous optimization
- Collaborate with architecture, RTL, and circuit design teams to validate design intent




- Mentor and guide modeling engineers on best practices and technical excellence
- Correlate behavioral models against silicon measurements and real chip data
- Establish and communicate modeling standards and documentation

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field (Master's preferred)
- 8+ years in behavioral/architecture modeling or FPGA/ASIC design
- 2+ years of technical leadership experience
- Proficiency in C++, SystemC, and Python for model development
- Deep knowledge of FPGA fabric architecture (CLBs, LUTs, routing, interconnects)
- Strong understanding of power and timing characterization methodologies
- Excellent problem-solving and technical communication skills
- Ability to lead cross-functional teams and drive team-oriented efforts

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Master's degree (M.Tech, MS) in Electrical/Computer Engineering
- Prior experience at semiconductor companies
- Published papers or
