Drive the Next Wave of Computing Innovation at MIPS

At MIPS were shaping the future of compute architecture with advanced IP that powers a wide range of applications. We take a disciplined methodical approach to designing scalable energy-efficient solutions that meet demanding power performance and area goals.

Our team spans from architecture performance modeling design verification implementation to software and software optimization for our customers. The team thrives on collaboration technical depth and a culture of mutual respect. We value diverse perspectives and practical experience and we know that excellence is built through thoughtful teamwork and a commitment to the highest engineering standards.

Were seeking a seasoned CPU microarchitect who brings hands-on RTL development experience and a track record of technical leadership. Were looking for expertise in one or more of the following areas:

Instruction fetch and branch prediction instruction decode scheduling Out-of-order execution register renaming Integer- or floating-point execution exception handling Load/store execution cache design or memory subsystems

As part of our team youll have the opportunity to take ownership of critical design challenges mentor colleagues and contribute to innovations that will define the next generation of MIPS computing solutions.

Join us and put your skills insight and passion to work to redefine whats possible

Key Responsibilities:

As a CPU Microarchitect you own or participate in the following:

• Creation of a microarchitectural specification for a major block from early exploration through micro architectural definition in conjunction with the performance modeling team and arriving at a detailed specification

• RTL design of the major functional block. Ownership includes the design definition implementation and convergence of the block to project requirements (performance timing power area schedule)

• Support of the verification team for test bench development test plan development and test content development including performance verification

• Work with physical design teams and design for testability teams to implement and converge physical design and testability

Minimum Qualifications

• Minimum BS and 15 years of relevant industry experience

• Experience with CPU microarchitecture in at least one of the following areas: instruction fetch branch prediction instruction decode instruction scheduling out of order execution register renaming integer or floating point execution exception handling load/store execution cache design or memory management unit

• Experience with Verilog System Verilog or VHDL

• Experience with commercial simulators and debugging tools

• Expert in logic design

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with timing power and area trade-offs in CPU microarchitecture

• Experience with high performance CPU microarchitecture techniques

• Experience with ISAs such as RISC-V ARM-v8 or x86

• Experience using scripting languages and regular expressions

• Programming experience with assembly C or C

• Experience with emulators is a plus
