Power Thermal Validation and Power Management Engineer - SoC Power Thermal Performance Validation (Temporary position)

As a SoC Power Thermal Performance Validation and Optimization Engineer, you will play an essential role in ensuring Intel's products achieve optimal power, thermal, and performance benchmarks at the system-on-chip (SoC) level.

In this position, you will develop and execute validation methodologies, optimize hardware/software solutions, and perform SoC-level debugging to address power, thermal, and performance challenges. Your contribution will directly impact Intel's ability to deliver competitive, high-performing products to market.

• →Develop and execute System-on-Chip (SoC)-level power, thermal, performance, and Power Management validation and optimization plans across Intel products.
• →Collaborate with architecture, design, firmware, and software teams to ensure power, thermal, performance, and Power Management meet competitive targets and specifications.
• →Establish and execute leakage, Dynamic Capacitance (Cdyn), Thermal Design Power (TDP), Digital Thermal Sensor (DTS), thermal protectors (Catastrophic Trip, Processor Hot), Inverse Temperature Dependence (ITD), thermal margin, System-to-- Tester (S2T) correlation, data collection for the Electrical Critical Path (ECP), and Power Management methodologies - CPU idle power States (C-states), Package C6 (pkgC6), link low-power states (L1, L0p), tunings (Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling, ring scalability, Power Virus Pattern, Running Average Power Limit, etc.), Fixed Frequency Performance (FFP) and Power Constrained Performance (PCP) recipes - to validate hardware/software optimizations and ensure alignment with business Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
• →Perform System-on-Chip (SoC)-level debug to identify root causes and resolve functional and triage failures related to power, thermal, Power Management, and performance.
• →Configure and set up data acquisition/loggers' equipment (e.g. Yokogawa) to collect and analyze power-thermal data.
• →Develop and maintain validation infrastructure, including power/performance monitors, behavioral checkers, and testing environments.
• →Produce comprehensive validation reports summarizing activities and results and communicates findings effectively to relevant teams.
• →Drive continuous improvements to validation strategies, methodologies, and processes.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving aptitude.
• Effective communication and documentation skills for cross-functional collaboration.
• Willing to work across team in multi-faceted groups (architecture, design, verification, firmware, software, and platform teams.)
