Our team reaches across the company to drive AI forward – joining an agile, innovation-first culture with Intel’s massive scale to deliver leading-edge breakthroughs and solve real-world AI challenges.

Together, we’re not just advancing AI — we're engineering it.

About The Role

We are seeking an exceptionally motivated and experienced Silicon Development Engineer to lead the architecture/micro-architecture definition and design of complex System-on-Chip (SoC) solutions. This role demands extensive understanding of SoC Architecture, Digital IP, and Network-on-Chip Interconnect design, coupled with significant pre/post-silicon debug expertise. The successful candidate will be instrumental in defining and implementing chassis architectures for advanced high-compute/performance SoCs.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead architecture/micro-architecture definition for advanced high performance SoCs, including chiplet-based designs supporting high throughput die to die coherency.
• Define and implement a scalable & high compute Chassis architecture for AI based consumer and server SoCs
• Drive micro-arch and design for high PPA solutions with optimised clock, reset, power for high compute SoC designs.
• Define end-to-end QoS solutions for multiple traffic class systems and implement low-latency, Head of Line blocking-free high throughput networks with complete freedom from interference
• Oversee SoC Chassis architecture, including Fabrics, SMMU & Access control
• Define Coresight compliant Debug and trace architecture for the chassis & SoC
• Work with design team to manage full-chip implementation of SoCs, encompassing Interconnect, SMMUs, Reset, Clocking, IO Mux, Debug-Trace, and High-Speed & Low speed IO Peripherals
• Work with Physical design teams to define the right SoC/Chassis partitioning, floor planning for a highly scalable SoC solution
• Drive project management, leading functional teams, and managing cross-functional multi-site projects.
