NXP Semiconductors
Sr Director, SoC Design (R-10051858)
NXP Semiconductors, Austin, Texas, us, 78716
Business Line DescriptionWe are part of MCU/MPU Engineering, a central design organization within NXP, developing products for multiple business lines in Automotive, Internet of Things (IoT), Networking, and Radio Frequency products, with expertise in hardware engineering, including architecture, IP, and full SoC Design. This enables a product portfolio with over four billion USD in annual revenue. Chances are that the car you drive, the intelligent devices that pervade your living space and the factories that produce the goods you use will contain one or more of the SoC’s chips that you contribute to.Job Summary:Responsibilities include resource management, project scheduling, execution, and setting high-level technical vision. Projects span a variety of business lines, and designs will need to meet a wide range of power/performance/area goals, depending on the product. Engagement and collaboration across global sites is a key aspect of this role as alignment of methods is essential and sharing of resources is common. Strong technical, communication, and consensus building skills will be required as well as a demonstrated ability to influence solutions across a global organization. The ideal candidate will partner with local and global SoC teams to drive best practices with a target of productivity improvement.Responsible for driving technical execution and best in class methodologies used in the design of advanced microcontrollers and microprocessors across a portfolio of productsWork closely with system architects to define high level specifications that are implementable and robust.Interface with verification/validation teams to ensure design quality and robustness.Work with various EDA vendors to deploy next generation toolsBuild strong collaboration with other R&D teams such as Verification, digital IP, Physical Design, Design Enablement, Emulation, and Validation to achieve project milestonesPromote continuous improvement to design techniques to ensure ‘Zero Defect’ chipsCollaborate with SME’s and key leaders in architecture, systems, emulation, SoC design, software, physical design, and IP teams developing key technical networks to influence overall design improvements and verification methodologiesResponsible for developing detailed Technical SoC execution plans, including resource schedules, progress reports and tracking milestones, managing technical risks, and providing mitigations to meet schedule quality and costs commitments. Communicate across technical teas as well as provide executive level presentationsDrive best in class methodologies collaborating with global internal and external SME’s and developing adoption and compliance processes. Including, driving key innovation strategies which significantly impact efficiency and quality for overall R&D and ROIParticipate in customer engagements assessing quality and risksWill be technical driver for a large BL; participates in Business roadmap / strategyAccountable for creation of current or future value through research, development, profitability / cost improvement, and/or capital avoidance that influences the Business group.Key Challenges:This role requires close collaboration across multi-site teams and needs to be strongly integrated locally as well as globally in order to make the right trade-offs in methodology and project executionThis role with have direct impact on product execution for business lines across Edge Processing, Auto Processing and RF Processing responsible for schedule, cost and quality commitments in SoC verification as well as identifying key improvements and ROI across the entire development processCross functional aspects:VP and Directors in IP development to plan strategic SoC Verification dependencies, roadmaps and methodologies and strategic IP innovationsChief Architects and Engineers for developing SoC platform strategic roadmaps and managing execution deliverablesDirectors in implementation, RTL, DFT, Emulation to collaborate on project development plans and execution and develop common methodologiesVP’s and directors in R&D and Business Lines to provide project status, strategic methodologies and tools.Job Qualifications:BS/MS/PhD with 15+ years of experience in Semiconductor industry. Candidate should be an experienced manager with a history of leading successful SoC RTL and Verification teams.Experience with System Verilog and front-end tooling (simulation, waveform viewers, lint, CDC, RDC, etc.) is required, as well as highly efficient FE methodologies.Must have worked on complex, multi-core SoC’s with extensive interconnects and a large range of peripherals.Strong domain knowledge of clocking, system modes, power management, debug, security and other architectures is a must.Any of following experience would be a plus: High Speed Peripherals like DDR, PCIe, Ethernet, GPU, VPU (Video Processing Unit); NIC/FlexNOC interconnect; Flash memory subsystems.Must have strong track record of managing RTL design through several successful tapeouts.Recognized as an industry wide thought leader and technical authority with advanced knowledge of theories and concepts to evaluate and integrate critical information from different functions to inform the development of strategy and commercial objectives.Location:This position is located in Austin, TX. This is a hybrid role with 3 days in office and 2 days work from home. This job may not be done 100% remote.
