You'll help author and review architecture specifications for new hardware and software features. You'll engage with key industry organizations, like RISC-V International and RISE. You'll be a part of creating something big - all based around the RISC-V instruction set architecture.
Responsibilities :
- Work with multiple global engineering teams to architect, design, implement and deliver advanced CPU cores, subsystems, SoCs, and IP subsystems with emphasis on scalability, performance, reliability, and support of new hardware technologies.
- Utilize your experience to create solutions to key architectural challenges for modern, high-level systems.
- Design and help develop SiFive and RISC-V software.
- Collaborate cross-functionally to help plan how to test key features in complex system environments.
