Job summary

NVIDIA Corporation is seeking a Senior System Simulation Architect to help develop full-system models for CPU architectures and drive performance for NVIDIA’s CPU products. You will integrate models with RTL simulators, emulators, and HW-in-the-loop setups, while bringing up software in simulation environments.

Requirements include 6+ years in EE/CE/CS, strong C/C++/Python skills, and experience with functional simulators and ARM ISA.

Qualifications

• BS/MS in EE, CE, or CS or equivalent experience.
• Excellent C/C++/Python programming skills.
• Experience in development of functional simulators and/or low-level software (OS, firmware, drivers); preferably both.
• Excellent debugging skills – of both system software/firmware and application software.
• Experience with the ARM ISA.
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills.

Responsibilities

• Develop full-system functional models capable of running complex multi-threaded heterogeneous (CPU/GPU) workloads – with special focus on the CPU subsystem.
• Integrate functional models from various frameworks with RTL simulators and emulators, hardware (HW-in-the-loop), and detailed performance models.
• Bring up system and application software in simulation and emulation – including firmware, Linux, drivers, benchmarks, and CPU/GPU workloads such as deep-learning (DL) and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads.
• Port/extend/develop system software (firmware, OS, and drivers) to meet workload simulation needs.
• Support CPU architects and performance engineers in their use of functional models, performance models, and emulation to drive next-generation CPU architectures.
