Senior AI Modeling Architect

We are looking for a Senior AI Modeling Architect to define and model the architecture of our next-generation AI processors. In this role, you will serve as a key technical authority — bringing not only strong modeling capabilities, but also the architectural vision to propose and drive end-to-end solutions to complex design challenges. You will work at high levels of abstraction, partnering closely with HW and SW architects to co-invent optimal solutions, validate them through simulation, and influence design decisions based on experimental data.

• B.Sc. or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related discipline • 10+ years of experience in VLSI/processor architecture (exceptional candidates with less experience will be considered)
• Strong hands-on experience with SystemC modeling
• Solid background in AI workloads and AI hardware architecture
• Experience in HW/SW co-design and architectural trade-off analysis
• Ability to operate at high levels of abstraction and drive architectural decisions from simulation data

Responsibilities

• Model CPU/AI processor functionality and performance using SystemC and pre-silicon simulation environments
• Define and drive architectural solutions — not only identify problems, but come with concrete proposals and alternatives
• Partner with lead HW and SW architects to co-design features and evaluate trade-offs across the stack
• Analyze bottlenecks and performance on workloads reflecting future AI use cases
• Provide proof-of-concept implementations for new architectural features and design alternatives
• Potentially lead feature definition in addition to the modeling role
• Strong independent technical judgment — able to come with a solution, not just a model • Excellent interpersonal and collaboration skills
• Creative, self-driven, and a strong team player
• Advantages
• Experience in CPU/DSP/GPU processor core architecture definition
• Familiarity with AI accelerator design and large-scale inference solutions
• Exposure to ISA definition or new instruction design
