As an architect on the the SoC Performance team within Reality Labs, you will play a key role in leading performance modeling, correlation, workload profiling, and analysis efforts.
Responsibilities
Conduct thorough bottleneck analysis of existing and future SoCs to identify areas for improvement
• Develop accurate models of IP components, SoC fabric, and DRAM to predict performance and inform design decisions
• Analyze system usage behavior of workloads and create micro-benchmarks to evaluate performance
• Identify opportunities for optimization and collaborate with hardware teams to solidify HW-SW co-design
• Work across disciplines, collaborate with vendors, brainstorm ideas and solutions, develop new methodologies, and coordinate multiple initiatives
Minimum Qualifications
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• 8+ years of experience in creating performance models using C/C++ or SystemC
• Experience with SoC architecture, NoCs, memory sub-system, Quality of Service (QoS), and heterogeneous compute principles
• Experience with scripting, infrastructure, automation, and visualization using Python
• Experience with power concepts and trade-offs
• Experience deconstructing technical problems, designing performance experiments, analyzing/visualizing data, and sharing detailed analysis in the form of documentation with peers and cross-functional partners
Preferred Qualifications
• MS degree in EE/CS or equivalent experience
• Experience working with cycle-accurate performance models and frameworks for performance architecture evaluations of various SoC components (Accelerators, NoC, DRAM, MMU, etc.)
• Experience with bare-metal programming, micro-benchmarking, performance instrumentation, Simpoints, etc
• Experience with RTL design verification
• Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
