    This role will be based in the Bay Area, and will report to our Lead Architect.

    Responsibilities:

    • Provide technical assistance to the architecture team in development of next-generation AI accelerators to enable novel machine learning algorithms.
    • Work closely with the algorithms teams to understand and evaluate local and global data movement in different potential architectures.
    • Work closely with the system software team to develop compilers and ISA extensions to enable new hardware functional units and features at the software level in an SoC setting.
    • Work closely with the IC Design team to evaluate various microarchitectures and digital and mixed-signal design collaterals in synchronous and asynchronous architectures and collaborate on microarchitecture development and specification hand-off architecture specifications to the IC Design team.
    • Develop functional and/or performance simulators for architecture evaluation, system design, verification, software prototyping and hardware-software co-optimizations.
    • Integrate proprietary accelerators and design macros ARM or RISC-V cores.
    • Develop and maintain architectural specification and documentation to be used by architecture, design, verification and software teams.

    Qualifications:

    • MSEE with 10+ years or PhD in Electrical Engineering and/or Computer Engineering with a focus on SoC architecture, ML accelerator design, system and performance modeling, and simulation.
    • Familiarity with compute architecture, programming models, compiler optimizations and code generation.
    • Familiarity with deep learning models and willingness to learn novel algorithms and translate them into specifications for hardware accelerators.
    • Familiarity with algorithmic techniques for on-device learning (online/continuous learning) is a plus.
    • Deep understanding of processor microarchitectures such as x86, ARM, and RISC-V.
    • Strong understanding of memory subsystem functionality, on-chip and off-chip data movement and associated tradeoffs, logic-memory optimizations and efficient code/date placement techniques.
    • Experience with SystemC, Python, C/C++ and the ability to write production-ready, annotated code.
    • Familiarity with the integration of novel accelerators and design macros with ARM or RISC-V cores.
    • Exhibit a high degree of motivation and independence.
    • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal.

    Preferred qualifications:

    • PhD in Electrical Engineering and/or Computer Engineering with focus on near- and in-memory computing architectures for AI acceleration.
    • Demonstrated track record of owning architecture of an AI accelerator from conception to tape-out. Demonstration of programmability.

    Our Benefits:

    • Medical Insurance with 100% coverage of employee premiums
    • Dental and Vision Insurance
    • 401k match
    • Unlimited vacation + all federal holidays
