Job Description
We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled Pre-Silicon Performance Modeling Engineer to join our cutting-edge SoC architecture and design team. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in performance modeling, simulation, and projections, with a focus on analyzing, optimizing, and predicting system performance to meet product goals. This role involves close collaboration with architecture, design, and validation teams to shape the next generation of high-performance, power-efficient SoCs.
Key Responsibilities:
Performance Modeling and Simulation
- Develop, enhance, and maintain detailed performance models for SoC subsystems and full-system architectures.
- Simulate real-world workloads to analyze performance bottlenecks, power trade-offs, and system behavior.
- Build and validate analytical and cycle-accurate models to predict performance across various configurations.
Workload Characterization
- Analyze diverse workloads, including application benchmarks and customer use cases, to determine system performance requirements.
- Create synthetic workloads and test cases to stress specific system components and validate model accuracy.
Performance Projections and Analysis
- Generate accurate performance projections for new SoC architectures and features.
- Perform trade-off analysis to evaluate architectural options, including core configurations, cache hierarchies, memory subsystems, and interconnects.
- Collaborate with power modeling teams to understand and balance performance-per-watt metrics.
Collaboration and Influence
- Work closely with architects, RTL designers, and firmware engineers to ensure alignment of performance targets across hardware and software layers.
- Provide actionable insights to guide architectural decisions and influence SoC design specifications.
- Partner with marketing teams to validate performance claims and create data-driven content for product positioning.
Tools and Methodologies
- Develop or enhance performance modeling tools and frameworks to improve simulation speed, accuracy, and scalability.
- Maintain robust documentation and best practices for performance modeling workflows.
Debugging and Issue Resolution
- Identify and debug discrepancies between performance model results and silicon behavior.
- Continuously refine models to improve accuracy based on post-silicon data and lessons learned.
Required Qualifications:
- Education:
Bachelor s or master s degree in computer engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (Ph.D. preferred).
- Technical Skills:
- Strong knowledge of SoC architecture, including CPU, GPU, memory hierarchy, interconnects, and accelerators.
- Expertise in performance modeling tools and simulation frameworks (e.g., SystemC, Gem5, or proprietary tools).
- Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, C++, or MATLAB for model development and automation.
- In-depth understanding of performance metrics, bottleneck analysis, and workload characterization.
- Experience:
- 10+ years of experience in performance modeling or SoC architecture.
- Experience working with both analytical and cycle-accurate models.
- Proven ability to project performance for pre-silicon designs and validate against silicon results.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Familiarity with power modeling and energy-efficiency optimization.
- Hands-on experience with hardware simulators, emulators, or FPGA prototypes.
- Knowledge of industry-standard benchmarks (e.g., SPEC, Dhrystone) and real-world workload behavior.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills to work effectively in cross-functional teams.
Employment Type: Full Time, Permanent
