CPU Performance Architect

Job description

Lead deep-dive microarchitectural analysis on silicon to isolate and quantify pipeline stalls, memory hierarchy bottlenecks, and instruction-level inefficiencies to drive root-cause resolution. Design, build, and execute advanced power and performance experiments on physical silicon to rigorously correlate pre-silicon projections with post-silicon reality across general-purpose and AI/ML compute workloads. Develop and maintain early-stage power and performance models to evaluate complex architectural \ Minimum Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, a related field, or equivalent practical experience. 8 years of experience with performance analysis, microarchitectural bottleneck isolation, and workload characterization. Experience with C/C++ for architectural modeling and scripting languages (specifically Python) for data analysis and automation frameworks. Preferred Qualifications: Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Computer Science, with an emphasis on computer architecture. Experience with the ARM instruction set architecture (ISA) and ecosystem. Experience characterizing and optimizing mobile or client platform power/performance and thermal management states (e.g., DVFS). Understanding of low-level system software components, including the Linux kernel, device drivers, power management frameworks, and runtimes.
