The PersonYou have a passion for computer architecture, along with strong knowledge of HPC and ML workloads. You are a team player with excellent communication skills and experience collaborating with engineers across multiple sites and time zones. You are a quick learner, self-starter, and able to drive multiple complex tasks to completion.
Key Responsibilities- Develop and maintain automation frameworks for workload execution and performance data collection, enabling scalable and repeatable characterization across configurations.
- Become a key stakeholder in the product power and performance definition process, ensuring alignment between architectural goals and measured silicon performance.
- Develop, execute, and evolve performance characterization and optimization test plans across diverse usage scenarios, including High Performance Computing (HPC) and Machine Learning (ML) workloads.
- Drive performance attainment for both scale-up (intra-node) and scale-out (multi-node) configurations, including:
- Multi-GPU scaling efficiency within a node
- Interconnect bandwidth utilization (e.g., XGMI / Infinity Fabric)
- Collective communication efficiency and communication-compute overlap
- Workload scaling behavior (strong and weak scaling)
- Identification and mitigation of system-level bottlenecks across distributed environments
- Analyze interactions between power management features and performance behavior, optimizing configurations to achieve the best performance and performance-per-watt tradeoffs.
- Identify architectural and system-level bottlenecks and develop strategies to stress, expose, and mitigate worst-case performance scenarios.
- Support prototyping and experimentation efforts to evaluate enhancements and new features that impact performance.
- Debug and troubleshoot system-level issues across hardware, firmware, and software stacks observed in lab and production test environments.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (architecture, firmware, drivers, platform, and workload teams) to drive root-cause analysis through to resolution and performance closure.
- Proactively drive continuous improvement of post-silicon performance methodologies, tools, and workflows.
- Proven leadership skills with experience mentoring junior…
