AI Hardware Modeling Engineer – Architecture & Simulation

Mythic Ai.Com; Austin (TX); On-site; USD 120,000 - 225,000; Full time

Job summary

Mythic is hiring experienced Architecture Modeling Engineers from junior to senior levels to help bring our next‑generation AI processors to life. You will design, build, and validate cycle‑accurate and transaction‑level models in C++/SystemC, to quantify performance, power, and area early in the design cycle.

You will collaborate with cross‑functional teams across architecture, compiler, and verification to ensure accurate RTL verifications and scalable software validation as silicon becomes

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science.
• 5+ years experience required creating performance models for architectural investigations. This experience can include time spent in academic work including papers, thesis, and dissertation work. The years required can be reduced if prior modeling experience is related to systems for AI.
• Academic and working knowledge of a variety of hardware concepts such as CPUs, memory systems, bus interconnects, security, chip interfaces, etc.
• Proficiency and experience with C++/SystemC as used in modeling.
• Proficiency and experience with hardware modeling for performance and/or power.
• Strong communication skills, both written and spoken.

Responsibilities

• Architect and create various types of hardware models with varying goals - e.g. transaction-level, cycle‑accurate.
• Create or build on top of existing hardware models to simulate functionality of custom AI software.
• Create prototyping models for estimating power, performance and area of new chip architectures.
• Create cycle‑accurate models of the hardware (C++/SystemC).
• Collaborate with peer engineering teams to co‑design and co‑verify the hardware implementation.
• Investigate new architectural ideas, many co‑designed with other system components.
