Senior CPU Workloads and Simulation Architect

What you’ll be doing Research, architect, implement, and evaluate mechanisms for capturing and studying complex applications suitable for architectural and microarchitectural CPU analysis in simulation. This includes multi-core, multi-thread, and heterogenous workloads spanning CPU/GPU/NIC, simulated at the user-level, VM-level, and full-system level. Implement tools, processes, and systems for collecting traces and checkpoints for complex multi-threaded heterogeneous applications and support other architects in using those tools to study workloads. Contribute to developing functional and performance models of ARM-based systems. Focus on infrastructure for recording and replaying workload sequences for performance and power analysis. Stay on top of guidelines in industry and academia relating to simulation, checkpointing, tracing, deterministic replay, and architectural/microarchitectural analysis of complex heterogeneous computer systems. What we need to see BS/MS in EE, CE, or CS or equivalent experience 12 or more years of relevant experience Experience with CPU workload methodology: state capture and replay, trace analysis, SimPoint, etc. Knowledge of CPU and system architecture and microarchitecture Strong C/C++ and Python programming skills Excellent communication and collaboration skills Ways to stand out from the crowd Strong knowledge in sampling methodology and data science Experience with CPU/GPU application development and optimization in Pytorch, TensorFlow, and similar frameworks Proficiency in the ARM instruction set architecture Experience developing user-mode and/or kernel-mode drivers Background in writing functional and/or performance simulators Salary and Benefits Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is $224,000 USD – $356,500 USD for Level 5, and $272,000 USD – $431,250 USD for Level 6. You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
