What You’ll Get to Do:
- Be the technical leadofa cross-functional team(hardware engineering, software developers, verification engineers)todefine,design, simulate,fabricateanditeratea RISC-VApplication-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC)System on aChip (SoC)product for defense and commercialapplicationsbasedon Idaho Scientific’sHeliossecureRISC-V CPU.The RTL already exists – the major task is transferring that capability toa functioning, production-ready ASIC.Tasks aheadwill follow the latest industry-standard design methodologiesto finalizing the RTL code, synthesis, place-and-routeandverification
- Be the primary technical interface with pilot customers, the internal engineeringteamand external subcontracted specialists todefine and document product features, use cases, and functional requirements
- Finalize and maintain themicroarchitecture definition and associated documentation (completeASIC specification,requirementsand verification plan), including performance, I/O, power consumption, area utilization, recurring cost andsecurity functionality
- Develop and oversee the implementation of a comprehensive verificationstrategyincludingtestbench development, functionalverificationand performance verification.Ensure the verification team has adequate coverage and highest probability of first-pass success
- Continuously evaluate new ASIC technologies, design methodologiesfor possible incorporationinotthe design
- Prioritize and schedulea product roadmap that definesthe inclusion of technical features to align with timing of market need and competitive advantage
- Decompose theproduct planinto actionable and trackable tasks, includingdesign reviews anddemonstrations that the team can executeto
- Identify strategic partners to assist in the development, marketing, and sustainment of the product to augment internalcapabilities
