CPU performance analysis engineer

Summary

In this role, you will be driving CPU architecture exploration by analyzing performance metrics (latency, power, code density) across benchmarks and CPU families. Investigate optimization opportunities through customizing ISAs and microarchitecture features to improve power and performance. You will develop simulation analysis tools and toolchain infrastructure for CPU/SOC architectures. You will collaborate closely with Apple's algorithm and software teams to build efficient CPUs, enhancing performance for diverse use cases.

Description

You will be responsible to create analysis tools to assist in architecture exploration. You will define and simulate CPU features and develop supporting tool chains including simulators, analysis tools, compiler, etc.. You will collaborate with SW and algorithm teams as well as implementation teams to define and build efficient CPUs that integrate seamlessly into various subsystems.
