R97868 Position Summary Samsung, a world leader in advanced semiconductor technology, is founded on a simple philosophy – the endless pursuit of excellence will create a better world for all. At Samsung Austin Research and Development Center (SARC) and Advanced Computing Lab (ACL), we are building a center of excellence for Intellectual Property (IP) that is applied to high-performance computing devices (mobile, automotive, and other custom market segments) consumed by millions of people around the world. Come build with us! Role and Responsibilities As a Memory Controller Micro-Architect/Logic Designer, you will be responsible for working on the micro-architecture development of custom memory controller for LPDDR5, LP. In this role you will be interacting with the system architects, verification, performance/power and design implementation teams. You will be owning and driving the critical memory controller related RTL design, performance and power optimization and also work on logic debug and timing closure of the design. Solid engineer foundation and RTL design experience are desired for success. You drive the timely development and debug of new features on timely development of custom memory controller. You work on SOC IP delivery with all sanity checks. You work on timing debug and closure. You work on LINT, CDC flows and analysis, and ECO flows. You work on power artist flow and power analysis. You coordinate with the verification team to verify the functionality and correctness of the design. You collaborate with implementation teams to achieve your timing and area. You produce quality RTL on schedule meeting PPA goals. You engage with performance and power team on achieving performance and power goals. You partner with the physical design and CAD team to resolve implementation level details. Skills and Qualifications 10+ years of experience with a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science/Computer Engineering/relevant technical field, or 8+ years of experience with a Master’s degree, or 6+ years of experience with a PhD.
