As a Senior GPU Architect - Performance and Yield Optimization, you will join the team to shape GPU architectures that improve product yield while maintaining performance and architectural simplicity. You will analyze how manufacturing defects affect resources, develop methods to isolate or disable affected regions, and build software tools and models to capture architectural requirements as rules and constraints. Your daily work involves developing optimization techniques for large configuration spaces, creating approaches for multi-die architectures to improve silicon utilization, and evaluating trade-offs between yield, performance, area, cost, and complexity. You will utilize C++ and Python to build simulators and analysis tools. The role focuses on the technical challenge of managing defect tolerance, resource isolation, and complex configuration problems within GPU, CPU, or SoC architectures to ensure viable product configurations move into production.
