Job Description

This role will lead the architecture, design, and development of high-performance interconnect solutions for SoCs, chiplets, and advanced packaging systems. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in NoC architecture, RTL/micro-architecture design, performance modeling, and verification, combined with strong leadership skills. Experience in both hardware and software development is a strong plus, as it enables system-level optimization, modeling, and seamless HW/SW co-design for next-generation NoC solutions. The NoC Team Director will drive technical strategy, manage execution, mentor a multidisciplinary team, and collaborate with cross-functional partners to deliver state-of-the-art interconnect IP for data-intensive and AI-driven applications. Key Responsibilities1. Leadership & Strategy• Define and execute the company’s NoC technology roadmap, aligned with product and system- level requirements.• Build, mentor, and lead a high-performing team of architects, designers, verification engineers, and performance modelers.• Foster innovation in NoC design, methodology, and automation to achieve best-in-class power, performance, and area (PPA).2. NoC Architecture & Design• Lead the design of scalable, configurable, and high-bandwidth NoC architectures for heterogeneous SoCs and multi-die systems.• Drive micro-architecture, RTL design, and integration of NoC subsystems, including coherency, QoS, and security features.• Oversee performance modeling, traffic analysis, and system-level simulation to ensure NoC meets latency and bandwidth requirements.• Collaborate with physical design teams to optimize NoC topology, floorplanning, and timing closure. 3. Cross-Functional Collaboration• Partner with CPU/GPU/AI accelerator, memory subsystem, and IP teams to define NoC interfaces and integration requirements.• Collaborate with software teams on NoC modeling frameworks, traffic generators, drivers, and firmware for validation and optimization.• Engage with product and system architects to align NoC capabilities with end-market requirements (AI/ML, datacenter, automotive, mobile).4. Execution & Delivery• Own NoC project planning, execution, and delivery, ensuring schedule adherence and quality.• Establish and improve design methodologies, verification flows, and automation for rapid, reliable development.• Support bring-up, debug, and performance validation in both pre-silicon and post-silicon environments.
