Micro-Architect in ASIC Architecture

Cerebras has developed a radically new chip and system to dramatically accelerate deep learning applications. Our system runs training and inference workloads orders of magnitude faster than contemporary machines, fundamentally changing the way ML researchers work and pursue AI innovation.

We are innovating at every level of the stack – from chip, to microcode, to power delivery and cooling, to new algorithms and network architectures at the cutting edge of ML research. Our fully-integrated system delivers unprecedented performance because it is built from the ground up for deep learning workloads.

Responsibilities 

• Translate high level architecture spec to micro-architecture feature requirements
• Develop RTL, validate functionality and perform synthesis for new micro-architectural features
• Enable turn-key PPA trade-off analysis methodologies to ground new architectural features
• Generate initial micro-architecture spec supported by feasibility studies
• Develop targeted power tests for existing and new architecture and extract power efficiency features
• Engage with design teams via regular reviews and enable seamless handoff for further execution

Skills & Qualifications

• Masters/PhD in Electrical/Computer Engineering 
• 10+ years of experience in micro-architecture definition and development across GPUs, CPUs or accelerator products
• Strong background in computer architecture and micro-architecture fundamentals
• Experience working on Power, Performance and Area (PPA) analysis and trade-offs
• Comfortable with developing new and PPA optimized datapath and control RTL blocks
• Exposure to micro-architecture evaluation methodologies via synthesis and power analysis EDA tools
• Accelerator development experience is a plus
