Floating Point Logic Design

  2025-10-13     Rivos     Roseville,CA  
Description:

Full-time positions are open in the areas of floating point and logic design.

Responsibilities

    • As a Floating Point & Logic Design Engineer, you will own or participate in the following:
    • Microarchitecture development and specification - from early high-level architectural exploration through micro architectural research and arriving at a detailed specification
    • Development, assessment, and refinement of RTL design to target power, performance, area, and timing goals
    • Design delivery - work with multi-functional engineering team to implement and validate physical design on the aspects of timing, area, reliability, testability and power
    • Validation - support test bench development and simulation for functional and performance verification
    • Performance exploration and correlation - explore high performance strategies and validate that the RTL design meets targeted performance
Requirements
    • Thorough knowledge of CPU or AI accelerator design work experience in one or more of the following areas:
    • In-depth knowledge of IEEE-754, and experience in optimizing FMA operations.
    • Creativity in designing various implementation methods to balance performance, power, and area when dealing with both integer and floating point operations for high performance, energy efficient components.
    • Expertise in coding complex mathematical functions (such as logarithms, exponentials, etc.) at a very fine level of precision using C or other high-level programming languages.
    • Working knowledge of Hector, c2rtl, or similar tools used for formal verification.
    • Understanding the algorithms used in common ALUs like multipliers and the tradeoff between area and power.
    • Knowledge of System Verilog
    • Experience with simulators and waveform debugging tools
    • Knowledge of logic design principles along with timing and power implications
    • Understanding of low power microarchitecture techniques
    • Understanding of high performance techniques and trade-offs in a CPU microarchitecture
    • Experience in C or C++ programming
Education and Experience
    • PhD, Master's Degree or Bachelor's Degree in technical subject area.
