At Samsung Austin Research and Development Center (SARC) and Advanced Computing Lab (ACL), we are building a center of excellence for Intellectual Property (IP) that is applied to high-performance computing devices (mobile, automotive, and other custom market segments) consumed by millions of people around the world. Come build with us!
Role and Responsibilities Were seeking a Lead Performance Architect to join our System IP team where you will play a critical role in designing and optimizing the performance of our System IP, balancing requirements from key system components including CPU, GPU, and other IP blocks. You will be responsible for developing and maintaining performance models, analyzing system performance, and identifying optimization opportunities to improve overall system efficiency. Your expertise in performance modeling, analysis, and C++ coding will be essential in driving the development of high-performance System IP solutions. Specialized experience working on memory subsystem, including interconnect, last-level cache, coherency, and memory controller is a big plus. You have proven experience leading a team to develop and maintain cycle-accurate C++ performance models for System IP components, while also contributing hands on. You analyze system performance using various metrics, such as latency, throughput, and power consumption, to identify bottlenecks and optimization opportunities. You develop and maintain performance analysis tools. You collaborate with cross-functional teams, including architecture, design, and software teams, to identify and implement performance optimization opportunities. You develop and run benchmarks to characterize system performance and identify areas for improvement. You provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers and contribute to the development of best practices and standards for performance modeling and analysis. You work closely with other teams, including CPU, GPU, and SoC architecture teams, to ensure that System IP components meet performance and power requirements. Skills and Qualifications Minimum Requirements: 20+ years of experience with a Bachelors Degree in Computer Science/Engineering, or 18+ years of experience with a Masters Degree, or 16+ years of experience with a PhD Expertise in performance modeling, analysis, and optimization, with a focus on System IP components. Strong C++ coding skills, with experience developing cycle-accurate performance models and analysis tools. Strong understanding of computer architecture, microarchitecture, and system-level performance optimization. Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify and optimize performance bottlenecks. Strong technical leadership and mentoring skills, with experience guiding junior engineers. Must be local, or open to relocating, to Austin, TX. Nice to Have: Professional experience in memory subsystem or interconnect, with knowledge of memory hierarchy, memory access patterns, bandwidth, and latency optimization, is a big plus. Proficiency in performance modeling tools such as SystemC, Gem5, or similar. Experience with industry standard RTL design tools and methodologies. Programming skills in Python or R, with experience in data analysis, visualization, and automation.
