  • Translate emerging compute and system technologies into actionable architectural concepts and prototypes.
• HW/SW/System CoDesign
  • Lead crosslayer codesign across hardware firmware bus architectures runtime operating systems drivers and application software.
  • Define partitioning strategies between host accelerator and realtime domains to meet performance latency and determinism requirements.
  • Influence software abstractions APIs and programmability models that enable scalable heterogeneous systems.
• Concept Development and Prototyping
  • Build and validate architectural concepts using modeling simulation and handson prototyping.
  • Evaluate performance power cost and scalability through benchmarks proofofconcepts and silicon/software experiments.
  • Partner with internal labs or external ecosystems to validate feasibility and readiness.
• Technology Strategy and Thought Leadership
  • Contribute to CTOlevel technology roadmaps and longrange research initiatives.
  • Track and assess industry academic and opensource developments in heterogeneous computing accelerators and system architecture.
  • Communicate architectural insights clearly to both technical and executive audiences.
• CrossFunctional Collaboration
  • Work closely with product engineering R&D silicon software and platform teams to influence future products.
  • Mentor engineers and architects raising architectural rigor and systemlevel thinking across the organization.

You are confident under pressure. You maintain a positive attitude despite adversity. You scan the environment for new technical skills knowledge or capabilities that can benefit business or personal performance. You readily learn and adopt new technologies.

FOR THIS ROLE YOU WILL NEED:

• BS degree (MS or PhD preferred) in Electrical Engineering Computer Engineering Computer Science or related field.
• Board-level design experience including high-speed memory interfaces processors network interfaces and high-speed signal integrity
• 10 years of professional experience in system platform compute architecture or equivalent commensurate with the level of this role.
• Deep understanding of heterogeneous computing systems including:
  • CPUs GPUs FPGAs and hardware accelerators
  • Memory systems cache coherence and highspeed buses and interconnects
  • Realtime and highthroughput processing constraints
• Experience with HW/SW codesign including performance modeling and architectural trade studies.
• Strong programming experience in one or more of: C/C Python CUDA OpenCL SYCL or HDL (Verilog/VHDL).
• Proven ability to translate abstract architectural ideas into prototypes benchmarks or validated concepts.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to explain complex ideas across disciplines.
• Authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship now and in the future.
  • Individuals with temporary visas such as E F-1 (including those with OPT or CPT) H-1 H-2 L-1 B J or TN or who need sponsorship for work authorization now or in the future are not eligible for hire.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS THAT SET YOU APART:

• 15 years of experience in system platform or compute architecture.
• Experience in test and measurement instrumentation RF systems signal processing or highperformance data acquisition.
• Background in realtime systems deterministic latency or safetycritical architectures.
• Familiarity with FPGA toolchains highlevel synthesis or heterogeneous runtime environments.
• Exposure to custom silicon chipletbased systems or advanced packaging.
• Experience working in a CTO office advanced research group or incubator environment.
