About this Role

You'll own power intent from architecture through signoff. You'll design and verify low-power architectures on real silicon programs with leading semiconductor companies while helping Voltai's AI learn power-aware design.

What You’ll Do

  • Define power architecture and write UPF power intent for SoCs and IP.

  • Implement and verify power gating, clock gating, multi-voltage domains, and retention.

  • Run power-aware simulation, static low-power checks, and CDC/RDC analysis.

  • Partner with RTL, physical design, and signoff teams on power estimation and closure.

  • Build automation for power analysis and reporting.

  • Evaluate AI-generated power intent and help define what correct looks like.

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years of low-power design or verification experience on production tapeouts.

  • Expert UPF knowledge and experience with power-aware verification.

  • Hands-on experience with tools like VC LP, Conformal Low Power, or PowerArtist.

  • Experience with CDC/RDC tools (SpyGlass, Questa CDC, or similar).

  • Python or Tcl scripting.

Bonus Points

  • Experience with mobile, edge, or data-center power management.

  • Formal verification of power intent.

  • Interest in AI-assisted design tools.
