Desirable

• We are looking for talented software engineers to help us build the next generation of AI processors and large-scale systems
• In this role, you will be responsible for simulations and analysis of design concepts and planned hardware at multiple levels of scale and detail that will play a key role in the hardware-software codesign of future systems
• Design, development, and maintenance of functional and performance models for design concepts and planned hardware, at both the subsystem and system levels
• Participate in the co-design process by working closely with both hardware and software teams by providing initial pathfinding analysis, developing early analytical models, and more detailed event-based simulations, improving fidelity as designs progress
• Collaborate with machine learning and compiler teams to construct and evaluate the performance of machine learning workloads
• Contribute to successful execution for planned hardware by building detailed cycle approximate performance and functional models that help drive microarchitectural design and validation
