We are seeking for a Performance Architect for new instructions and other SW visible technologies across the entire CPU design life cycle. In this role, you will partner in the development of next generation breakthrough technologies for Intel’s flagship CPUs. The goal of these technologies is to achieve a significant breakthrough in user perceivable performance/efficiency.

Job responsibilities include (but not limited to):

• Prototype HW and/or SW to demonstrate new technologies and then fine tune the definition to achieve the desired results

• Workload analysis for the purpose of identifying and root causing performance bottlenecks and then proposing solutions in HW or in SW

• Interaction with customers to root cause new performance issues and for general  advice, becoming the second level of support to our Application Engineers.

• Define and develop methods and automation to test and track the performance of new features over time. Run and track periodic regressions.

• Flag, identify and root cause violations to the performance requirements and recommend technical proposals to fix such cases

Qualifications

Minimal requirements:

• An academical degree in Computer Science, or Electrical/Computer Engineering from a recognized university
• At least 3 years of experience with: C \ C++ \ Python

Advantage to candidates with experience in one or more of:

• Development of SW tools, simulators, emulators . Or alternatively strong experience in SW development and willingness to learn and participate in this.
• Experience in performance optimization a strong advantage
• Knowledge of modern CPU microarchitectures
• Knowledge of the Intel Architecture

Behavioral expectations

• Team player, ability and willingness to work in cross-site and matrix environments
• Independent. Ability to perform also on situations of technical uncertainty and vague requirements

Intel Architecture, Graphics, and Software (IAGS) brings Intel's technical strategy to life. We have embraced the new reality of competing at a product and solution level—not just a transistor one. We take pride in reshaping the status quo and thinking exponentially to achieve what's never been done before. We've also built a culture of continuous learning and persistent leadership that provides opportunities to practice until perfection and filter ambitious ideas into execution.
