Join Arm’s Productivity Engineering Group as an Emulation and FPGA Efficiency Architect, where you will enhance the performance and utilization of global hardware acceleration infrastructure. Your daily tasks include benchmarking workloads, optimizing scheduling mechanisms, integrating EDA vendor APIs for automation, collaborating with in-house scheduler teams to improve resource allocation, and developing data pipelines and dashboards for performance visualization. You should have expertise in hardware emulation and FPGA environments, experience with Linux-based scripting (Python, Bash), familiarity with Prometheus and Grafana, and a strong analytical approach to performance validation. This role involves working on large-scale verification environments and collaborating closely with EDA tool vendors like Cadence and Synopsys to drive continuous improvement and efficiency gains at scale.
Benchmark emulation and FPGA workloads to quantify performance baselines.
Optimize scheduling mechanisms to enhance system availability and job throughput.
Integrate EDA vendor APIs for automated resource management and job orchestration.
Develop data pipelines and dashboards to visualize trends and inefficiencies.
Collaborate with scheduler team to improve resource allocation for workloads.
Drive continuous improvement through automation and workflow optimization efforts.
Partner with EDA vendors to validate and deploy performance enhancements.
What we're looking for
Strong experience in hardware emulation and FPGA environments.
Proven ability to benchmark and profile workloads, interpret performance data, and drive improvements.
Experience integrating EDA vendor APIs or SDKs into custom automation solutions.
Familiarity with scheduler design and integration for resource allocation optimization.
Proficiency in Linux-based environments and scripting (Python, Bash) for automation.
Strong analytical skills with a data-driven approach to performance validation.
Knowledge of cloud-hosted emulation and elastic compute models.
