Within our Silicon Engineering division, you will get the chance to collaborate with some of the industry’s brightest minds, contributing to the future of Artificial Intelligence and Computing.

If you are passionate about tackling complex Register Transfer Logic (RTL) /Implementation challenges and have a keen interest in driving the associated methodology for large and intricate digital System on Chip (SoC), this is the perfect place for you! You will be part of a team that is responsible for developing and delivering the latest Electronic Design Automation (EDA) technologies to various silicon teams within Microsoft. In this role, you will be tasked with defining, implementing, and delivering logical equivalence checking tools, flows, and methods to our rapidly expanding RTL and physical design teams located across various sites within the Microsoft silicon engineering organization.

We are looking for a Senior Silicon Engineer to join our team!

Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.

Responsibilities

In this role you will:

  • Establish Logical Equivalence Checking (LEC)/Formal Equivalence Verification (FEV) methodology for hierarchical and block-level partitions between RTL, Design for Testability (DFT)-inserted RTL and Gate-level/Power-Ground (PG) Connected netlists on Microsoft’s next-generation large and complex SoCs.

  • Enhance design productivity with advanced scripting skills for development/maintenance of large CAD (Computer Aided Design) flow systems

  • Perform detailed debug/analysis to guide the RTL and physical design teams across Microsoft’s silicon portfolio in addressing and solving challenging logical equivalence failures.

  • Perform cross-functional decision making across UPF (Unified Power Format)/Low Power methodology/architecture, DFT methodology, Synthesis, Place and Route and Extracted Timing model generation in Timing Analysis tools to embellish Logical Equivalence modelling.

  • Contribute to raising the standard by discovering innovative synthesis/optimization strategies for optimal power, performance, area and yield without overloading the Logical Equivalence Solver algorithms.

  • Implement automatic Functional Engineering Change Order (ECO) methods pre-/post-mask to generate faster, well-optimized, and functionally equivalent patch files.

  • Collaborate closely with the EDA partners to identify and deliver the best and most advanced solutions for effective Logical Equivalence closure while optimizing runtimes.
