- Experience with power analysis tools like PrimePower or PowerArtist.
- Circuit-level understanding of chip power.
- Proficient with scripting languages such as Tcl, Perl, or Python.
- Good understanding of Physical Design, EM/IR, Power Integrity, and Thermal aspects.
Responsibilities
- Conduct full chip power analysis and modeling at various design stages.
- Develop and maintain dashboards for power rollups.
- Collaborate with designers and architects to create vectors for IR and Thermal analysis.
- Provide feedback to designers on methods to reduce power consumption.
- Perform power measurements in the lab and correlate results with simulations.
- Work with Emulation engineers to model chip-level power consumption.
Benefits
- Employees at Amazon are often offered comprehensive health benefits—including multiple medical plan options (no pre-existing condition exclusions, 100% covered in-network preventive care), dental and vision plans, a 24/7 medical advice line from day one, expert second-opinion services, and broad mental-health support with several free counseling sessions (including pediatric).
