CPU Performance Architect, Silicon

• Develop and modify a performance model for performance analysis and microarchitecture study. Evaluate Advanced RISC Machine (ARM’s) architecture features from both architecture and performance angles.

• Define and write CPU subsystem architecture specifications.

• Collaborate with Register-Transfer Level (RTL), design verification, and physical design teams to develop a high-performance and efficient CPU implementation.

• Manage performance correlation between the performance model and RTL implementation, including micro-benchmark development and pre-silicon and post-silicon performance bug triage.

Minimum qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Computer Science, with a focus on computer architecture, or equivalent practical experience.

• 4 years of experience in microprocessor architecture, microarchitecture, performance, or advanced CPU design.

• Experience in CPU architecture, performance modeling, analysis, correlation, and workload characterization.

• Experience with C/C++ and scripting languages (e.g., Python).

Preferred qualifications:

• Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science, with an emphasis on computer architecture or machine learning.

• Experience in CPU/ML microarchitecture exploration, performance model development, performance analysis, performance correlation, or workload characterization.

• Knowledge of microprocessor instruction set architecture (e.g., ARM, RISC-V, x86).

• Familiarity with system software components, such as Linux, drivers, and runtime.
