Principal AI Compiler Architect

GlobalFoundries; Eindhoven; In loco; EUR 94.000 - 142.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

GlobalFoundries seeks a Principal MTS – Software Engineering with a focus on AI compiler architecture to lead the Physical AI SW Engineering team in Eindhoven. You will define, evolve and implement production-ready AI toolchains across diverse compute platforms, collaborating with global teams and customers to translate requirements into scalable roadmaps.

You will mentor engineers, drive architecture reviews, and ensure API consistency, performance optimization and cross‑functional alignment

Competenze

• Bachelor’s, master’s or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Applied Mathematics or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Extensive industry experience in compiler development, including senior technical ownership or architecture responsibility for complex software products.
• Strong knowledge of compiler design, intermediate representations, optimization, analysis, scheduling, memory management and code generation.
• Hands-on experience with LLVM and/or MLIR.
• Experience compiling for heterogeneous targets such as AI accelerators, NPUs, DSPs, GPUs, vector processors or embedded CPUs.
• Proficiency in modern C++ and Python, with the ability to prototype, review code and diagnose issues across system boundaries.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills and experience influencing decisions across distributed, cross-functional teams.

Mansioni

• Define and maintain the end-to-end architecture for AI compiler and toolchain capabilities across the Physical AI product portfolio.
• Translate product, model and customer use cases into compiler requirements, architecture specifications, interfaces, and prioritized technical roadmaps.
• Guide decisions across front‑end model import, graph transformations, MLIR/LLVM‑based intermediate representations, optimization, partitioning, scheduling, memory planning, code generation and deployment.
• Align compiler architecture with accelerator runtime, compute‑kernel libraries, firmware, verification flows, and hardware architecture.
• Drive API and ABI consistency, portability and reuse across products while establishing clear extension points for product‑specific capabilities.
• Lead architecture reviews, design reviews, technical risk assessments and proof‑of‑concept work for critical or novel features.
• Partner with engineering leads to decompose architectural direction into implementable epics, milestones and acceptance criteria.
• Analyze performance and quality gaps using representative AI workloads, then guide optimization across the full software and hardware stack.
• Collaborate with global teams, customers and ecosystem partners on integration, enablement, issue resolution and forward‑looking requirements.
• Mentor compiler engineers and strengthen architecture practices, documentation quality and engineering standards across the organization.
