Markham, Canada Nutanix Full time

Company: Qualcomm Canada ULC Job Area: Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Machine Learning Engineering

General Summary:

Today, more intelligence is moving to end devices, and mobile is becoming the pervasive AI platform. Building on the smartphone foundation and the scale of mobile, Qualcomm envisions making AI ubiquitous-expanding beyond mobile and powering other end devices, machines, vehicles, and things.

We are inventing, developing, and commercializing power-efficient on-device AI, edge cloud AI, and 5G to make this a reality.

Job Purpose & Responsibilities

As a member of Qualcomm's ML Systems Team, you will participate in two activities:

  • Development and evolution of ML/AI compilers (production and exploratory versions) for efficient mappings of ML/AI algorithms on existing and future HW
  • Analysis of ML/AI algorithms and workloads to drive future features in Qualcomm's ML HW/SW offerings

Key Responsibilities:

  • Contributing to the development and evolution of ML/AI compilers within Qualcomm
  • Defining and implementing algorithms for mapping ML/AI workloads to Qualcomm HW
  • Understanding trends in ML network design, through customer engagements and latest academic research, and how this affects both SW and HW design
  • Creation of performance-driven simulation components (using C++, Python) for analysis and design of high-performance HW/SW algorithms on future SoCs
  • Exploration and analysis of performance/area/power trade-offs for future HW and SW ML algorithms
  • Pre-Silicon prediction of performance for various ML algorithms
  • Running, debugging and analyzing performance simulations to suggest enhancements to Qualcomm hardware and software to tackle compute and system memory-related bottlenecks

Successful applications will work in cross-site, cross-functional teams.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or related field. Requirements:
  • Demonstrated ability to learn, think and adapt in fast changing environment
  • Detail-oriented with strong problem-solving, analytical and debugging skills
  • Strong communication skills (written and verbal)
  • Strong background in algorithm development and performance analysis is essential

The following experiences would be significant assets:

  • Strong object-oriented design principles
  • Strong knowledge of C++
  • Strong knowledge of Python
  • Experience in compiler design and development
  • Knowledge of network model formats/platforms (eg. Pytorch, Tensorflow, ONNX) is an asset.
  • On-silicon debug skills of high-performance compute algorithms Knowledge of algorithms and data structures
  • Knowledge of software development processes (revision control, CD/CI, etc.) Familiarity with tools such as git, Jenkins, Docker, clang/MSVC
  • Knowledge of computer architecture, digital circuits and event-driven transactional models/simulators
