Job description
- Develops and drives end-to-end CPU architecture specifications for highly optimized, modular, and scalable CPU based on hardware features, requirements, and interoperability of hardware and software throughout the product life cycle.
- Understands the CPU requirements and defines targets (performance, power, frequency, and area) and content (features) that meet the requirements.
- Evaluates feasibility trade-offs, explores, and defines new approaches and novel architectures for CPU.
- Invents, conceptualizes, and specifies architectural and microarchitecture features to deliver optimized CPU requirements for multiple segments from high performance computing to extreme low-power products.
- Models CPU performance and power, analyzes the bottlenecks of current CPUs on workloads that reflect CPU future usage.
- Develops tests, test plans, and testing infrastructure for new architectures/features for CPU, performs functional modeling simulations, and conducts analysis of test results using advanced statistics and data predictions for benchmarking performance and determining areas for improvement.
- Provides experimental/proof-of-concept changes for proposing design alternatives meeting performance, power, area, and timing constraints.
- Collaborates with architects, design, verification, and validation engineers during the execution of the project.
- Delivers definition of new microarchitecture and finds mitigations for issues that arise during feature implementation to improve the overall design of CPU and overcome bottlenecks and constraints., This role will be eligible for our hybrid work model which allows employees to split their time between working on-site at their assigned Intel site and off-site. * Job posting details (such as work model, location or time type) are subject to change.
