Job Description:
The Microchip FPGA Software Engineering team delivers a comprehensive software suite for designing Microchip's FPGAs and managing the entire design flow from entry, to synthesis, through place-and-route, timing, power analysis, simulation, debug and programming. Within the Software organization, the Application Frameworks and Infrastructure group is responsible for developing data representations of the customer's FPGA design through its various stages of compilation - from RTL to synthesized gates, placement and routing - as well as the mechanisms to analyze that information. We are also responsible for developing the overall Integrated Design Environment (IDE) used to create the FPGA design, define its constraints and manage the entire Electronic Design Automation (EDA) flow. Microchip's FPGA IDE software is distributed commercially to a wide range of customers.
The Application Frameworks and Infrastructure group is looking for a highly motivated individual to be part of the team to design the next generation software for Microchip's FPGAs. In that role, you will be part of the team working on improving/redesigning the customer design gate-level representation with respect to the overall robustness and scalability (run-time and memory) to support very large FPGA devices. You will work on managing the user design database as it gets through the various design compilation steps, implementing FPGA architecture specific Design Rules Checks (DRCs) and netlist transformations. The new user design database and FPGA architecture specific code will be architected and designed with modularity and maintenance in mind as it will be used in Microchip's new FPGA IDE platform for the next 10+ years.
Responsibilities:
- Work on large gate level netlist data structures development and optimization.
- Work on FPGA gate level netlist compilation flows development and maintenance.
- Profile the tool chain and implementing runtime/memory optimizations.
- Create unit tests to improve developer regressing suites.
Requirements/Qualifications:
- BS or MS in Computer Science or related field.
- 0-2 years relevant experience.
- Good knowledge and ability in C++, as well as understanding of data structures representing gate level netlists.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Basic understanding of FPGA architectures.
- Effective communicator and creative problem-solver.
- Ability to work in a fast-paced, demanding, dynamic environment.
- Experience with shell scripting languages (Perl, Python, Bash, TCL).
- Experience with software development in a Linux and Windows environment.
Travel Time: 0% - 25%
