Toronto/Hybrid
We are partnered with a global leader in the semiconductor industry, assisting in the search for a Senior-Staff level compiler optimization engineer to join their growing AI/ML R&D team.
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, We envision 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 the 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
- 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 hardware and software to tackle compute and system memory-related bottlenecks
