Position Summary
Samsung, a world leader in advanced semiconductor technology, is founded on a simple philosophy – the endless pursuit of excellence will create a better world for all. At Samsung Austin Research and Development Center (SARC) and Advanced Computing Lab (ACL), we are building a center of excellence for Intellectual Property (IP) that is applied to high-performance computing devices (mobile, automotive, and other custom market segments) consumed by millions of people around the world. Come build with us! Role and Responsibilities
As SoC Performance Architect, you will primarily be responsible for driving the modeling and analysis of new SoC architectures and features for next generation mobile products. This is a role tasked with building models of SoC architectures to evaluate new feature and use cases. Solid architecture foundation, leadership, and SoC modeling experience is desired for success. You build and develop complex SoC performance models including CPU, GPU, ISP, NPU – particularly around smartphone and mobile platforms. You perform high-level performance modeling and analysis of hardware features, applications, benchmarks, and complex use cases. You understand and analyze the impact of system-level architectural trade-offs (including CPU, GPU, NPU, ISP, memory subsystems, and system software). You leverage a data-driven approach to drive consensus around complex architectural proposals. You work with teams throughout the company to identify, analyze, and optimize critical complex use cases including gaming and camera applications. Skills and Qualifications
10+ years of experience with a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science/Engineering, or 8+ years of experience with a Master’s Degree, or 6+ years of experience with a PhD. Experience in architectural modeling and performance analysis, either with analytical models or cycle-accurate simulators. Ability to model SoC architectures to analyze end-to-end performance on workloads of interest; Experience with gem5 desired. Excellent software development skills with ability to code in C, C++, Python, and similar programming languages. Ability to integrate internal/external IP models on a full system-level framework. Knowledge of Arm Architecture and Memory subsystem design including caches, interconnects, and memory controllers. Knowledge of high performance, high efficiency design. Experience with CPU, GPU, Accelerators, or Memory systems microarchitecture. Strong written and verbal communication skills. Our Team
We’re building a new team to influence the product roadmap for a market-leading system IP solution. Our team focuses on delivering system modeling capability based on optimization and use-case-driven analysis (gaming, computational photography) that enables a world-class memory subsystem. With architecture scalability at the frontier of our design focus, our performance- and power-optimized IP solution gets integrated into complex semiconductor products, aiming to reach multiple market segments. Being part of a new team of talented individuals with vastly diverse backgrounds and skill sets at a well-established global company means you have limitless room to explore, innovate, and expand role responsibilities to build technical expertise. With a big charter ahead, we get to do challenging work and solve unique problems in a highly collaborative and supportive environment. You will always be learning while helping us shape the team’s culture. Total Rewards
At Samsung – SARC/ACL, base pay is one part of our total compensation package and is determined within a range. This provides the opportunity to progress as you grow and develop within a role. The base pay range for this role is between $144,345 and $223,735. Your actual base pay will depend on variables that may include your education skills, qualifications, experience, and work location. Samsung employees have access to benefits including: medical, dental, vision, life insurance, 401(k), free onsite lunch, employee purchase program, tuition assistance (after 6 months), paid time off, student loan program, wellness incentives, and many more. In addition, regular full-time employees (salaried or hourly) are eligible for MBO bonus compensation, based on company, division, and individual performance. This role might be eligible to participate in a long-term incentive plan and relocation. U.S. Export Control
This position requires the ability to access information subject to U.S. export control restrictions. Applicants must have the ability to access export-controlled information or be eligible to receive a government authorization to access export-controlled information. Trade Secrets
By submitting an application, you [applicant] agree[s] not to disclose to Samsung, or induce Samsung to use, any confidential or proprietary information (including trade secrets) belonging to any current or previous employer or other person or entity. #SARC #ACL #Hybrid
