As a Power and Performance (PnP) Engineer, you will be responsible for PnP product execution focused on measurements, analysis, and projections/estimates of Intel's unlaunched notebook and desktop products.
Based on your technical knowledge of both Intel and the competition, you will help influence Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers, internal marketing teams, internal engineering teams, debug Intel silicon/platform on PnP issues, and be an integral part for Intel product launches.

Core responsibilities are:

• Measure, analyze, and debug workloads to call out any power and/or performance gaps and close with internal engineering teams/architects

• Measure and analyze SoC/CPU and platform power on a rail by rail basis and debug any issues/gaps

• Align with other internal engineering teams and architects to ensure there is consensus on power and performance projections/estimates/measurements for both internal and external communication

• Guide, educate, and influence internal engineering teams, field account teams, and marketing teams on power and performance positioning of Intel products

• Create power and performance estimates on upcoming Intel products based on workloads to aid marketing decisions and help set internal KPI targets

• Own the publication of the Power Performance Guide (PPG) collateral to help OEM customers

• Bring up a full test platform to enable both power and performance measurements including setup, calibration, and measurements.

A successful candidate will demonstrate:
