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++, System C, and Python for model development Deep knowledge of FPGA fabric architecture (CLBs, LUTs, routing, interconnects) Robust understanding of power and timing characterization methodologies Excellent problem-solving and technical communication skills Ability to lead cross-functional teams and drive collaborative efforts

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