Silicon Design Architect
Astera Labs, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India +1
What you will do
- Define architecture for complex IP blocks and SoC subsystems based on product and system requirements.
- Translate system requirements into architecture, specifications, interfaces, and performance targets.
- Define microarchitecture, data paths, control paths, interfaces, clocking, reset, power, and error-handling mechanisms.
- Evaluate architectural trade-offs across performance, power, area, latency, bandwidth, scalability, and complexity.
- Define interfaces and protocols such as PCIe, UALink, AXI, APB, CHI, or other high-speed/interconnect protocols.
- Develop architecture specifications, block diagrams, interface specifications, and technical documentation.
- Work closely with RTL, verification, physical design, DFT, firmware, and system architecture teams.
- Identify architectural risks and drive resolution of complex technical issues.
- Review RTL and verification strategies to ensure implementation aligns with architectural intent.
