  • Work with software teams (your primary customers) to understand their workflows, debug issues on the platform, and shape the model to maximize their productivity
  • Drive simulation performance improvements so the platform can handle increasingly complex workloads at scale
  • Contribute to model architecture decisions — choosing the right level of abstraction and fidelity for each subsystem based on customer needs

Skills

  • 5+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
  • 5+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
  • Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team

  • Experience programming with C++ and/or SystemC
  • Knowledge of SoC, CPU, GPU, and/or ASIC architecture and micro-architecture
  • Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent
  • Experience analyzing data and applying best practices to assess performance drivers
  • Experience developing models that integrate with QEMU
  • Experience developing and calibrating performance models for custom silicon chips
  • Experience with PyTest and GoogleTest
  • Familiarity with modern C++ (11, 14, etc.)
  • Experience in multi-threaded programming
  • Experience with machine learning accelerator hardware and/or software
