Join us, because at Intel, we are building a better tomorrow.

Who We Are
The E-core CPU team is powered by some of the brightest and most innovative minds in the industry and we need you. Intel has a vision to create and extend computing technology to connect and enrich the lives of every person. We are designing future generations of high-performance E-core CPUs using the most advanced and innovative process technologies. If you are looking to grow and develop your skillsets while be surrounded by highly motivated and knowledgeable teammates, then this is the organization for you.

E-Core CPUs are the industry leading performance per watt CPU that helps:

• Power the latest Intel laptops, desktops and high-end gaming platforms.

• Drive 5G communications by serving as the base-station that delivers essential data from your electronic devices across the world at maximum bandwidth.

• Create Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning devices.

• Enable a full virtual learning experience for students using the latest Google Chromebooks.

Who You Are

As a CAD Physical Design Engineer in the E-core CPU group, you will be responsible for:

• Developing, debugging, and supporting tools, flows and methodologies covering backend physical design methodologies and flow automation for high performance blocks and full chip level using RTL2GDS standard cell level design techniques.

• Performing analysis of either synthesis, place and route, floor planning or signoff for static timing analysis on timing paths, formal equivalence verification, power consumption, electrical rule checking and circuit reliability to identify key issues.

• Working closely with design teams to understand and debug tool issues and constraints.

• Working with industry EDA vendors to build and enhance tool capabilities to design a high-speed, low-power synthesizable CPU.

• Creating documentation and help with guidelines/specs.

• Communicating with other team members to solve problems and following solutions through to completion Excellent verbal and written English communication skills.

Qualifications:

You must possess the below minimum education requirements and minimum required qualifications to be initially considered for this position.
