Looking for a CPU performance modeling architect to take responsibility over the performance aspects of new CPU instructions or modes of operation. The role includes but is not limited to:
Partners with lead SW and HW architects to co-invent optimal HW and SW solutions that come to address requirements. Influences the direction based on experiments and simulation data
Models CPU functionality, performance and/or power in pre-silicon simulators
Defines and runs performance experiments to aid feature definition. Such experiments can be performed on a pre-silicon simulation environment or in a real system or on a combination of both or even in combination with analytical models
Provides experimental/proof of concept for new features and implementation alternatives meeting performance constraints.
Analyzes the bottlenecks of current CPUs on workloads that reflect CPU future usages
Potentially (in the future), lead a team doing above activities
An adequately qualified candidate can also become the leader of definition for some features in addition to all the roles above.

Requirements:
BSc or higher degree in Computer Science/Engineering or related discipline from a leading university. (Alternatively, exceptional proven track record in similar tasks)
3+ years of experience in one or more of following disciplines: development of simulators/emulators for CPUs, definition of CPU features, HW/SW co-design, Low level performance profiling and optimization of SW with exposure to CPU ISA
Fluent spoken and written English
Behavioral skills: Team player. Interpersonal skills needed to collaborate with colleagues towards achieving a technical goal
Advantageous qualifications:
Experience in SW/HW codesign or in definition of new instructions will be a great advantage
Familiarity with dense compute workloads and analysis (e.g., AI, HPC, financial, etc.)
Familiarity with Vector Architectures
