Senior AI Modeling Architect

Requirements

• B.Sc. or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related discipline

• 10+ years of experience in VLSI/processor architecture (exceptional candidates with less experience will be considered)

• Strong hands-on experience with SystemC modeling

• Solid background in AI workloads and AI hardware architecture

• Experience in HW/SW co-design and architectural trade-off analysis

• Ability to operate at high levels of abstraction and drive architectural decisions from simulation data

Responsibilities

• Model CPU/AI processor functionality and performance using SystemC and pre-silicon simulation environments

• Define and drive architectural solutions — not only identify problems, but come with concrete proposals and alternatives

• Partner with lead HW and SW architects to co-design features and evaluate trade-offs across the stack

• Analyze bottlenecks and performance on workloads reflecting future AI use cases

• Provide proof-of-concept implementations for new architectural features and design alternatives

• Potentially lead feature definition in addition to the modeling role

Skills

• Strong independent technical judgment — able to come with a solution, not just a model

• Excellent interpersonal and collaboration skills

• Creative, self-driven, and a strong team player

Advantages

• Experience in CPU/DSP/GPU processor core architecture definition

• Familiarity with AI accelerator design and large-scale inference solutions

• Exposure to ISA definition or new instruction design
