Accelerator Post-Silicon Performance Validation Engineer
Rivos
Office
(US&Taiwan) Santa Clara CA , Austin TX, Portland OR, or Fort Collins CO, HsinChu Taiwan
Full Time
Full job description
Rivos Accelerator Performance team is seeking highly motivated candidates to perform post-silicon performance validation activities for Rivos accelerator design. The primary role is to engage in performance validation and analysis of typical workloads on server compute silicon.
Key Responsibilities
As a Post-Silicon Performance Engineer, you will own or participate in the following:
* Analyze workloads and their performance to drive the performance analysis, optimization and correlation efforts on Rivos' accelerator design. * Quantify and analyze performance of typical server workloads (data analytics, graph algorithms, and AI/ML), and correlate measurements with simulation results* Collaborate cross-functionally with design, architecture, systems, and software teams to enable enterprise customer use-case performance measurements* Perform silicon performance measurements and correlate with partition simulations and full-chip projections* Improve use-case power/perf ratio through tuning of hardware and software settings* System level performance debugging and silicon performance per watt tuning * Automate performance validation infrastructure* Develop and execute silicon characterization tests for the Rivos accelerator.
Minimum Qualifications* 5+ years of hands-on experience in bring-up and validation of complex SoCs.* Experience scripting in Python or other programming language.* Experience in object-oriented programming with C and C++* Experience in bringing up silicons, performing functional and performance validation, and debugging failures.* Familiar with the LLM/ML workloads
Preferred Qualifications* Knowledge and experience with common performance benchmarks such as MLPerf* Experience working multi-functionally with people of very diverse backgrounds* Demonstrated communication, influence, and negotiation skills* Technical documentation skills* Initiative in taking ownership & responsibility to drive deliverables* Able to think outside the box and come with creative solutions for lab validation.
