Staff Signal Processing Architect

THE ROLE:

We are looking for a dynamic, energetic Signal Processing Architect to join our growing team in the AI Group. In this role, the individual will be responsible for modeling algorithms related to signal processing and deep learning domain, mapping algorithms efficiently on AMD/Xilinx AI Engine block, estimating performance, defining micro-architecture based on the system modeling and driving the kernel and RTL implementation team for hardware implementation. This role expects the individual to drive the algorithmic requirements, performance requirements, function partitioning across different accelerator blocks, memory partitioning issues. The team is dynamic and fast paced offering each of its members tremendous personal opportunity to grow their knowledge and skills in complex problem solving, product development and system engineering.  

THE PERSON:

As a Staff Architect, you will drive innovative, scalable, and automated solutions. In this high visibility position, your signal processing architecture expertise will be necessary towards product development, definition, and root cause resolution.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Perform MATLAB and Python modeling of signal processing algorithms based on the marketing requirements.
• Perform model optimization and performance prediction.
• Map signal processing algorithms into AI Engine’s scalar and vector processor.
• Develop kernel libraries and verify functionality with reference MATLAB model.
• Performance simulation and optimization of kernels.
• Perform system level performance analysis, bandwidth requirement analysis and estimation of hardware resources.
• Develop and validate VLIW-based processor systems on both pre-Silicon and post-Silicon platforms based on different use case applications.
• Solve challenging technical problems with complex SoC based systems that integrate robust algorithms and features.
• Work on systems including image processing pipelines, intelligent processing (machine learning) in the DSP processor systems, compressing/decompressing that require both a system specific, and an algorithmic knowledge base.
• Lead the discussion in the AI Engines Technical Solutions Team forum.
• Be involved in all aspects of integrated product development, including design, prototyping, implementation, testing, and product demonstration.
• Provide feedback on architecture, use cases, IP design, tools, and documentation.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
