About The Role
Ampere is looking for a Principal Power Management Engineer to drive power modeling, analysis, optimization, management, convergence, and validation across CPU, AI accelerator, memory, I/O, and interconnect designs.
This role works across architecture, microarchitecture, RTL, implementation, firmware, validation, and silicon.
The ideal candidate has strong CMOS fundamentals and experience turning workloads, power data, and architectural tradeoffs into actionable design decisions.
The role may include pre-silicon power analysis,
post-silicon characterization, power-management feature enablement, power modeling and power attainment.
What You’ll Achieve
• Define power targets, budgets, operating points, and optimization strategies for CPU, AI accelerator, and SoC blocks.
• Develop and maintain architectural, activity-based, RTL, gate-level, emulation, and silicon power models.
• Set up and run RTL- and gate-level power analysis, develop benchmarks and tests, and review results for opportunities at the architecture, RTL, synthesis, and implementation levels.
• Characterize CPU, memory, PCIe, networking, storage, AI training, and AI inference workloads to identify power and performance bottlenecks.
• Drive power/performance/area/thermal tradeoff studies and power convergence across design & implementation phases.
• Develop automation, data-processing flows, dashboards, and analysis scripts using Python, TCL, Perl, or similar
