Huawei Canada has an immediate permanent opening for a Principal Scientist.

About the team:

The Computing Data Application Acceleration Lab aims to create a leading global data analytics platform organized into three specialized teams using innovative programming technologies. This team focuses on full-stack innovations, including software-hardware co-design and optimizing data efficiency at both the storage and runtime layers. This team also develops next-generation GPU architecture for gaming, cloud rendering, VR/AR, and Metaverse applications.

One of the goals of this lab is to enhance algorithm performance and training efficiency across industries, fostering long-term competitiveness.

About the job:

• Build an accurate and universal AI performance model based on mainstream AI acceleration technologies to support theoretical analysis.
• Track the emerging hardware designs in the industry, conduct in-depth insight and survey analysis, and identify the direction of key cutting-edge technologies.
• Cooperate with our AI research team to identify key performance bottlenecks in future AI workloads, and define key algo-hw codesign features of our next-generation chips, for the objectives of low cost, high throughput, great scalability, and stability.
• Performance modeling of representative AI workloads with state-of-the-art training & inference algorithms on different hardware specs for quantitative analysis of compute, memory, IO, and interconnect.
• Lead our team for acceleration algorithm breakthroughs in the best tradeoff between model quality and compute efficiency.
• Track the emerging algorithm-hardware codesign technologies in the industry, conduct in-depth insight and survey analysis, and deeply understand main directions and trends of cutting-edge algorithm-hardware codesign technologies.

About the ideal candidate:

• Master's or Doctoral degree in Computer Science or Electronic Engineering.
• At least 5+ years of experience in low-level computing algorithm development, AI accelerator/large scale parallel computing/high performance computing system design is an asset.
• Deep understanding of the basic principles and workload characteristics of large language models/multimodal models, the popular AI software stack (operators, compilers, acceleration libraries, frameworks) and mainstream large model training and inference algorithms, such as hybrid parallelism, low precision data formats, sparsity, P/D splitting, etc.
• Familiarity with microarchitecture of AI chips is an asset.
