Jobbeschreibung

Reality Labs focuses on delivering Meta's vision through On-device AI. The compute performance and power efficiency requirements of these workloads require custom silicon. Reality Labs Silicon team is driving the state of the art forward with innovative work in computer vision, machine learning, mixed reality, displays and sensors. Our chips enable On-device AI assistance and personal superintelligence features, contextualized to timing and personalized requirements. We believe the only way to achieve our goals is to look at the entire stack, from transistors to architecture, firmware, and algorithms.As a Machine Learning IP Validation Engineer at Meta Reality Labs, you will use your hardware/software integration, prototyping, emulation, firmware, and hardware validation skills to develop IP validation infrastructure; bring up, validate, and optimize ML workloads across pre-silicon and post-silicon platforms; and improve the functionality, performance, power, and robustness of state-of-the-art ML accelerators. You will partner cross-functionally with RTL design, verification, emulation, architecture, ML compiler, firmware/runtime, and ML model teams to define validation requirements, debug cross-layer issues, and drive them to resolution.

IP Validation Engineer - Machine Learning Accelerators Responsibilities

• Define and execute HW-SW integration, functional validation, and characterization plans for ML accelerator IP across emulation, prototyping, and silicon platforms
• Identify risks and develop mitigation strategies
• For new technologies and features, work closely with design engineering on defining performance-power characterization and validation strategy, as well as detailed test plans
• Participate in design reviews and make recommendations to support overall test strategy
• Create test setups, collect and analyze data to help debug technical issues
• Partner with RTL design, design verification, emulation, SoC architecture, ML compiler, firmware/runtime, and system teams to bring up ML workloads, identify root causes, drive cross-layer issues to resolution, and verify fixes
• Convert large amounts of data into a clear summary to communicate to stakeholders at all levels

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience
• 8+ years of relevant experience in consumer electronics or related fields
• Experience creating validation plans for hardware products including developing test methodologies for new features and technologies
