Job description

As a Principal Engineer in CPU Architecture, you will be at the forefront of developing and driving the end-to-end architectural specifications for cutting-edge, modular, and scalable CPUs that will power the next generation of computing. This role offers the unique opportunity to influence the technical direction of both Intel and the broader industry, ensuring our leadership in performance, power efficiency, and scalability. Your contributions will directly impact Intel's ability to deliver innovative solutions across diverse market segments, from high-performance computing to ultra-low power products. This is a pivotal position that combines technical strategy, architectural innovation, and leadership to shape the future of Intel CPUs., * Drive the development of CPU architecture specifications, including hardware feature requirements and hardware-software interoperability throughout the product lifecycle.

  • Define and evaluate feasibility tradeoffs for performance, power, frequency, area, and features to meet CPU requirements across multiple segments.
  • Conceptualize, invent, and specify architectural and microarchitecture features that deliver optimized CPU requirements for varying use cases.
  • Develop and document new instructions to support emerging use cases, improve existing ones, and extend the instruction set architecture (ISA).
  • Model CPU performance and power, analyze current CPU bottlenecks, and explore novel approaches for future workloads.
  • Create tests, test plans, and testing infrastructure for new architectures and features, conduct simulations, and analyze test results using advanced statistical models and data predictions.
  • Provide experimental proof-of-concept solutions to propose design alternatives that meet constraints related to performance, power, area, and timing.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including architects, design, verification, and validation engineers to execute project requirements seamlessly.
  • Deliver new microarchitecture definitions and resolve issues during feature implementation to improve CPU design and overcome challenges.
  • Influence and challenge cross-functional roadmaps while defining technology targets for future CPUs.
  • Mentor and develop technical leaders, foster community growth, and act as a change agent while exemplifying Intel values in every aspect of your work.
  • Proven expertise in CPU architecture definition and feature specification.

Requirements

  • Advanced knowledge of performance and power modeling, bottleneck analysis, and optimization for CPU workloads.
  • Experience with instruction set architecture (ISA) development and implementation.
  • Strong proficiency in testing and simulation tools, advanced statistical modeling, and data-driven predictions.
  • Demonstrated success in delivering experimental proof-of-concept solutions and driving end-to-end execution of architectural designs., * Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, and 12+ years of relevant experience; or Master's degree and 8+ years of relevant experience; or PhD and 6+ years of relevant experience., * Track record of influencing technical strategy and leading cross-functional teams to achieve organizational goals.
  • Experience mentoring and developing technical leaders and fostering innovation within a team or organization.
  • Exceptional communication skills and the ability to challenge, inspire, and lead diverse groups.
  • Familiarity with industry trends and the ability to align technical vision with market demands to maintain leadership in CPU performance, power optimization, and scalability.
