The team that built the innovative Silicon IP AZ1 Neural Edge that is powering the latest generation of Echo devices is looking for a Sr. SoC Prototyping Engineer to continue to innovate on behalf of our customers. We are a part of Amazon Lab126 that revolutionized reading with our Kindle family of products and reimagined user experience through Echo and Alexa. We want you to help us build on the success of our first generation of ML accelerator at edge.

As a Sr. SoC Prototyping Engineer, you will be part of a pre-silicon platform team responsible for delivering prototypes of custom SoCs for use in early SW development. In this role, you will be responsible for architecting, building and debugging a prototyping environment for custom SoCs using Synopsys HAPS. You will lead the design, build, bring-up and delivery of these prototypes by preparing SoC RTL for prototyping, deciding on external lab equipment / daughtercards, completing partitioning / timing closure and performing bring-up and debug activities.

You will work closely with multi-disciplinary groups including Product Design, Audio Technology, Computer Vision, Hardware Engineering, and Software Engineering, to define solutions that enable development of world-class hardware devices.


Key job responsibilities
- Deliver SoC level prototyping platforms, using Synopsys HAPS, for software teams
- Prepare SoC RTL & constraints for prototyping
- Work with SW teams to architect a SoC prototyping solution
- Perform partitioning, clock network design and timing closure of the SoC design using the Synopsys HAPS toolchain
- Write bring-up tests and debug to validate the platform
- Debug issues presented by SW teams using both CPU trace and probe debugging
- Manage HAPS lab and equipment including purchasing
- Communicate and work with team members across multiple disciplines
