* Essential Responsibilities:

** Processor Microarchitecture & RTL Design
* Develop and implement microarchitecture for CPU cores, cache subsystems, memory management units (MMU), interconnects, and system controllers.
* Translate architectural specifications into high-quality RTL designs using Verilog/System Verilog.
* Define and review detailed design specifications, block-level architectures, and implementation strategies.
* Drive performance optimization, power reduction, and area-efficient design methodologies.
* Analyze and resolve complex design trade-offs involving latency, throughput, and scalability.

Technical Leadership
* Lead critical processor design initiatives across multiple functional blocks.
* Mentor junior and senior engineers on microarchitecture, RTL coding practices, and design methodologies.
* Conduct architecture, microarchitecture, and RTL design reviews.
* Establish design guidelines and best practices across the organization.
* Influence roadmap and technology decisions for future processor generations.

Cross-Functional Collaboration
* Partner with architects to evaluate new features and enhancements.
* Work closely with verification teams to define verification plans and close coverage.
* Support synthesis, timing closure, low-power implementation, and physical design activities.
* Collaborate with DFT teams to ensure manufacturability and testability.
* Support silicon bring-up, debug, characterization, and production ramp activities.

Performance Analysis & Optimization
* Conduct design performance analysis and bottleneck identification.
* Drive microarchitectural enhancements to improve IPC, memory latency, and system efficiency.
* Analyze workload behavior and benchmark performance.
* Participate in power-performance-area (PPA) optimization efforts.
