Principal Performance Modelling Engineer

£140,000+ DOE, UK remote working + stock options!

I'm currently partnered with a Semiconductor start-up, based in Silicon Valley. They are working on re-imagining Silicon, creating RISCV based computing platforms aimed at transforming the industry. As a Principal Performance Modelling Engineer you will develop functional and timing simulators, undertake performance analysis for architectural exploration and identify and fix performance bottlenecks. You'll also be involved in workload analysis, to develop a deep understanding of the characteristics of workloads in the target market (machine learning, data analytics, graph analytics).

They are looking for a passionate and dedicated person and in return, you'll get the opportunity to work in a fun, flexible collaborative working environment. Their team in the UK is currently small, but growing rapidly, therefore you have the chance to be part of a disruptive and talented group of exceptional people. There is huge opportunity for this position to develop into a technical leadership role through excellent career progression avenues.

What's required for this Principal Performance Modelling Engineer position?

• Strong C/C++ development skills
• Excellent understanding of GPU/CPU architecture and microarchitecture
• Knowledge of performance modelling concepts
• SIMT processing, cache and memory hierarchies
• Understanding of benchmarks and workloads in the ML space
