Job Details

Job Description:

Intel put Silicon in Silicon Valley. No one else is obsessed with engineering and has a brighter future. Every day, we create world changing technology that enriches the lives of every person on earth. So, if you have a big idea, let's do something wonderful together. Join us, because at Intel, we are building a better tomorrow.

The Role And Impact

Join Intel as a CPU Logic Design Engineer in Chandler, AZ or Austin, TX and play a pivotal role in advancing cutting-edge semiconductor technology. You will be at the forefront of designing and developing CPU logic, ensuring power, performance, and area optimization to meet Intel's world-class standards. As part of our innovative engineering team, your contributions will directly impact the success of Intel's CPU designs and their integration into system-on-chip (SoC) solutions. This is an exciting opportunity to shape the architecture and microarchitecture of CPUs, influencing the development of industry-leading processors that power the future of computing.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop logic design, register transfer level (RTL) coding, and simulation for CPUs, creating functional units, cell libraries, and CPU IP blocks for integration into full-chip designs.
• Define and contribute to the architecture and microarchitecture features of the CPUs being designed.
• Apply strategies, tools, and methods to write RTL code, optimizing logic for power, performance, area, and timing goals, as well as ensuring design integrity for physical implementation.
• Collaborate on verification planning and implementation to validate design features, identifying and resolving RTL test failures to ensure correctness.
• Document microarchitectural specifications (MAS) for CPU features and provide necessary support to SoC customers to ensure high-quality integration of CPU blocks.
• Debug and resolve complex cross-domain issues that span RTL, tools, and software domains.
• Supports SoC customers to ensure high quality integration of the CPU block.
