Power Performance Modeling Architect (Platform Architecture)

Quick Facts

• Role: Constrained performance modeling engineer / power performance modeling architect

• Focus: Developing simulators and performance models under power, thermal, and reliability constraints

Description

Apple’s products require holistically co-optimized SoC hardware, systems, and software architectures for top performance and efficiency. This role drives the development of constrained performance models that simulate SoC performance and efficiency while accounting for electrical, thermal, reliability constraints and control systems. You will collaborate with SoC, system, and software architects to influence future product design.

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain performance models under constrained power and thermals

• Identify and prepare new workloads for analysis

• Work with architects and design teams to characterize workloads and find opportunities to optimize product targets

• Model and optimize power, thermal, and reliability control systems with control engineers

• Guide system design of form factors with system design engineers

Requirements

• BS in Electrical or Computer Engineering or related engineering degree

• Experience in high-performance and low power microprocessor architecture and design techniques

• Experience coding in C, Python, or similar programming languages

Benefits

• Highly visible role working with a multi-functional, world-class engineering team to push difficult, impactful technical challenges

• Opportunity to help influence the architecture and implementation of future products through simulator and modeling development
