CPU Performance Architect - Platform Architecture

Apple
Santa Clara
Full-time

Summary :

Do you have an uncommon desire to seek out and solve exceedingly difficult challenges rather than the easy ones? Do you believe that truly valuable and meaningful accomplishments are the result of pushing the limits of perseverance?

Do you believe that a world-class team with relentless drive can surpass even their own high expectations? We do! But we also realize this job isn’t for everyone.

What we do isn’t easy but you don’t take the easy path. Apple’s Platform Architecture group defines high-performance power-efficient CPUs that power Apple Silicon.

We are looking for an experienced CPU architect and technical leader for exploration and modeling of sophisticated CPU features, to lead and drive advanced development research that will enable our future CPU roadmap.

Key Qualifications :

Extensive experience in CPU architecture, design, or performance modeling Strong technical leadership and collaboration skills Strong CPU architecture knowledge, micro-architecture knowledge, and an understanding of competing architectures Experience working in a performance modeling environment Proficient in C and C++ Proficient in scripting languages such as Perl, Python and Ruby Ability to tackle problems and prove your own ideas Knowledge and experience with common performance benchmarks and workloads Knowledge of OS internals and compiler technology a plus

Description :

Collaborate with the CPU micro-architecture and RTL team to find opportunities for product improvement and exploration - Analyze existing and emerging workloads to identify performance bottlenecks and opportunities - Work with cross-functional groups to identify CPU exploration areas of long-term strategic value to Apple - Work with other CPU leads to identify and evaluate potential architectural and ISA changes for targeted areas - Perform self-guided performance simulation studies of design alternatives while also providing guidance and direction to others on the architecture and modeling team - Work with RTL and design team to assess implementation cost for new features - Collaborate with performance team to maintain and improve the simulation environment for increased efficiency and productivity
