Senior/Staff Performance Modelling Engineer

Job Overview: Would you like to join the team that defines the micro-architecture of the future Arm IPs and AI subsystems, and influence the future by crafting products that millions of people will use all over the world? We are looking for engineers willing to accept the challenge of growing our modelling and performance analysis capability and explore ideas that will define very successful products, as well as building and supporting initiatives that will improve our methodologies and perform wider and faster explorations of the system design space.   The performance modelling team within the Systems group is responsible for early performance exploration and analysis that drive the definition of the next generation Arm IPs and subsystems. By joining the team, you will interact closely with the IP RTL designers to investigate and evaluate new micro-architectural ideas and design trade-offs that will make the micro-architecture for the next products successful for the target sectors.   You will evaluate these ideas and analyze IP and subsystem performance developing and using C++ based performance models of the micro-architecture. You will also coach and mentor more junior engineers to help them grow and become deep experts on the field! Responsibilities: You will help driving the technical direction of the team, which develops, tests and maintains software models of Arm's advance IP. You will engage with hardware design engineers to prune the design space of next generation products, understanding performance opportunities on current processors and investigate potential micro-architectural improvements. There will the potential to support and mentor other specialists; sharing your technical expertise and experience. We are closely interacting not only with hardware designers but also with other IP performance modelling teams across the world. You would be involved on the communication and alignment of activities related to integration, methodologies, strategies, etc. Required Skills & Experience: An understanding of interconnect, and system architecture. Experience of functional or performance modelling of IPs Proficiency in C, C++ or SystemC 'Nice To Have' Skills and Experience: Strong software development experience, including design specification, coding, testing, and debugging. Experience with RTL and SystemC simulators. Experience of exploring and evaluating ideas and performance related to processor micro-architecture. Familiarity with Arm architectures and instruction sets. Experience of Unix development environment. Good interpersonal skills and capacity to work efficiently with local and remote teams. University degree, ideally in electronic engineering or computer science. In Return: This is a new team, and there is plenty of opportunity to shape its future, and your own growth and progression. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of the AI revolution and be a core part of Arm's key strategic objectives!   #LI-JC1
