About This Role
- Lead CPU software–hardware co-design efforts for next-generation QMX CPU architectures focusing on machine learning workloads.
- Analyze and optimize ML workload performance through workload characterization, simulation using QEMU, bottleneck analysis, kernel optimization, and benchmarking.
- Collaborate with CPU architecture teams to provide data-driven insights and influence architectural enhancements and develop highly optimized ML kernels and libraries integrated with ML frameworks.
Minimum Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or related field with 8+ years software engineering experience; OR Master's degree with 7+ years; OR PhD with 6+ years.
- 4+ years programming experience in C/C++ (mandatory).
- Experience with performance profiling, benchmarking, and optimization.
- Location: Bangalore or relevant location.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- Experienced in CPU architecture, system-level programming, and machine learning workload optimization for CPU platforms.
- Proficient with QEMU or equivalent simulators, ML kernel development (GEMM, convolution, attention), and low-level optimizations (SIMD/vectorization, memory tuning).
- Capable of cross-functional collaboration with CPU architecture, systems, and AI teams to drive hardware and software co-design decisions.
