Job Description

This Software Engineer, CPU Performance Modeling role involves developing custom silicon solutions for Google's direct-to-consumer products. You'll collaborate with system and CPU architecture teams to understand CPU, SoC performance, benchmarks, and optimization. Responsibilities include designing, developing, testing, deploying, and maintaining CPU software modeling tools. You'll define methods to model CPU performance at various accuracy levels, supporting architectural exploration and decision-making. Correlating performance projections with post-silicon data is also crucial. This role demands strong software development, data analysis, and performance modeling skills. You will work with hardware and software teams to improve CPU performance.

Must have:

Software development experience (2+ years)
Data structures and algorithms experience (2+ years)
Performance analysis and modeling experience (2+ years)
Large-scale systems data analysis
Develop and maintain CPU software modeling tools

Good to have:

Master's or PhD in relevant field
Experience with modern high-performance CPU/ML architecture
Excellent object-oriented, database design, and SQL skills

Minimum qualifications:

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent practical experience.
2 years of experience with software development in one or more programming languages, or 1 year of experience with an advanced degree.
2 years of experience with data structures or algorithms.
2 years of experience with performance, large scale systems data analysis, visualization tools, or debugging
Experience in performance modeling, performance analysis, and workload characterization.

Preferred qualifications:

Master’s degree or PhD in Engineering, Computer Science, or other technical related field.
Experience in modern, high-performance CPU/ML architecture and micro-architecture.
Ability and interest to learn other coding languages as needed.
Excellent object-oriented, database design, and SQL skills.
