SOC Performance Modeling Software Engineer (Platform Architecture)

Quick Facts

• Role: SOC Performance Modeling Software Engineer (Platform Architecture)
• Team: System-on-chip (SoC) performance modeling within hardware technologies
• Focus: Performance models, simulator infrastructure, and post-silicon correlation

Description

You will build and maintain performance models and infrastructure that translate design space studies into well-written software models. You will work across the modeling life cycle—from early architectural exploration to post-silicon correlation—ensuring high-quality, timely data for hardware decisions. You will also focus on simulator performance, maintainability, and flexibility so hardware architects can iterate quickly on experiments.

Responsibilities

• Use C++ effectively to maximize the utility of software models
• Develop APIs usable by non-expert C++ developers
• Train AI agents and non-expert developers on idiomatic C++ and methods
• Structure the codebase for effective use with AI-assisted development tools
• Write clear, self-documenting code with consistent conventions and organized modules
• Learn SoC IP and chip-level architecture
• Build data analysis pipelines and visualization methodologies
• Run continuous regression testing
• Run performance simulations and analyze/present results

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree
• Experience in hardware architecture and design issues
• Experience coding in C++ and Python
• Experience with computer architecture and software engineering principles
• Experience with data structures and algorithms

Benefits

• Opportunity to contribute to platform architecture performance modeling and cross-team collaboration
