Job Description: 

The Group: Intel's Advanced Design (AD) team resides within the Design Enablement (DE) organization, which collaborates closely with our partners in process technology, IP, and products spanning client/server and networking products. The primary focus of AD is to guide process technology definition, and design prototypes in Intel's latest process technology, supporting Intel's internal and external design customers.

The future of Moore's Law: 3D-IC https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/newsroom/opinion/moore-law-now-and-in-the-future.htmlhttps://www.zdnet.com/paid-content/article/moores-law-under-the-microscope-intel-advances-transistor-technology/https://www.tomshardware.com/news/intel-teases-falcon-shores-xpu

The Role:

The Design Technology Pathfinding (DTP) organization in Design Enabling (DE) is chartered to identify and drive key strategic initiatives in the pathfinding of future technologies, as a holistic Design co-optimization across the Product stack from System architecture to silicon as we extend DTCO to STCO (System Technology Co-Optimization). The job requires partnering and leveraging domain experts across Intel and the EDA Eco-System.

Deliverables:

- Run Place and Route to design convergence to establish STCO 2D-3D Physical design baseline, assess quality, perform design analysis and 3D PPA optimization.

- 3D EDA evaluation and methodology development.- Inter chiplet analysis and validation with Synopsys 3D-IC Compiler and Cadence3D Integrity.

- Identify design optimization opportunities (silicon, package, EDA, architecture configuration, methodology, etc)

- Analyze architecture critical paths to identify how to best take advantage of this technology.

- Identify machine learning opportunities for further optimization.

- Highly independent, creative, and out-of-the-box thinker.

This is a fulltime remote internship with a length of 3-4 months.
