SoC Performance Modeling Software Architect

Quick Facts

• Role: SoC Performance Modeling Software Architect (Platform Architecture)
• Team: System-on-Chip (SoC) performance team within Hardware Technologies

Description

You will build and evolve system-on-chip (SoC) performance models and simulator infrastructure to produce high-quality, timely data that drives world-class hardware designs. You will translate design space studies into well-written software models, develop high-performance C++ transformations from hardware execution models, and support the full performance-modeling lifecycle through post-silicon correlation. You’ll also focus on simulator performance, maintainability, and flexibility so hardware architects can quickly iterate on experiments.

Responsibilities

• Leverage C++ to maximize the utility of performance software models
• Develop APIs that non-expert C++ developers can use
• Train AI agents and non-expert developers on idiomatic C++ code and methods
• Structure the codebase for effective use with AI-assisted development tools
• Write clear, self-documenting code with consistent conventions and meaningful naming
• Learn state-of-the-art SoC IP and chip-level architecture concepts
• Work on data analysis pipelines, visualization methodologies, and continuous regression testing
• Run performance simulations
• Analyze simulation results carefully and present them clearly

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree
• Experience in hardware architecture and design issues
• Experience coding in C++ and Python and binding/integrating C++ with other languages
• Experience with computer architecture and software engineering principles
• Experience with data structures and algorithms
• Experience using software models to collect behavioral characteristics and converting that data into performance analysis
