TL;DR · Senior Deep Learning Hardware Modeling Architect

The Senior Deep Learning Hardware Modeling Architect joins a team focused on hardware-software co-design to optimize AI inference speed and efficiency. In this role, you will drive architectural specifications to closure across multiple stakeholders and develop written specifications for key component-level and system-level designs. You will embody these specifications in an executable model used by many internal customers. Daily tasks involve ensuring high performance through C++ software practices, solid algorithms, data structures, and parallelism while resolving performance and correctness issues across chip and hardware subsystems. Required skills include expert C++ programming, RTL design, and architecture knowledge. You will work on modeling critical components of LLM inference solutions, addressing the technical challenges of pushing performance boundaries for large language model inference hardware.

What you'll do

  • Drive architectural specifications to closure across multiple stakeholders.
  • Develop written specifications for key component-level and system-level designs.
  • Create executable models for key components using C++ software practices.
  • Implement high-performance algorithms and data structures to ensure system efficiency.
  • Utilize parallelism to optimize AI inference speed and performance.
  • Resolve performance and correctness issues across chip and hardware subsystems.
  • Work across teams to debug and fix hardware-software integration problems.

What we're looking for

  • BS or higher degree in a relevant field (CS, EE, Math) or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years of relevant experience.
  • Expert programming and software skills in C++.
  • Experience in RTL design and/or architecture with the ability to understand common chip design concepts.
  • An automation-centered mindset.
  • A desire to improve work efficiency using AI.
  • Experience with systems-level/architectural/chip modeling, profiling, and analysis (preferred).
  • Strong combined RTL and C++ skillset (preferred).
