Intern, Apl Research Scientist

What You'll LearnThe Advanced Processor Lab is committed to shaping the future of CPU processor and SoC architecture for the most demanding applications of the future, like AI and HPC. We believe the CPU should be the center of technology to run all of heterogenous computing engines with complex software under an easy-to-use programming environment. Join us to innovate ways we can tightly couple hardware engines while maximizing the efficiency and performance of CPU processorProject: Based on RISC-V compatible processor, accelerator and SOC technology, our target is to design high-performance and flexible tightly-coupled CPU architecture. Major target systems are data-center, supercomputer, and autonomous vehicles.Skills You'll LearnUnderstanding of CPU architecture and tightly-coupled acceleratorUnderstanding of SoC developmentUnderstanding of how to improve PPA efficiency in micro-architectureUnderstanding of how to analyze and accelerate AI and HPC applicationsUnderstanding of customization in processor related to applicationsLanguage skills – C/C++, SystemC, Python, Verilog, etc.What You'll DoDefine the microarchitecture of inside high-performance processor, compatible RISC-V ISA.Design the tightly-coupled manner with computing extensions.Design several simulators (C or Python) with different levels.Will also have the chance to contribute to the architecture ideas and methodology with own suggestions, while doing analysis or experiments.Involve the SoC development and related IP developmentInvestigate PPA improvements.Design or verify RTL code.Investigate other works in papers for specific itemsCollaborate with cross-functional teams and experts, including applications/software engineers, performance team, backend designers, and other architecture teams.Complete other responsibilities as assigned.Location: Hybrid, working onsite at our San Jose, CA headquarters 3 days per week, with the flexibility to work remotely the remainder of your time What You BringCurrently pursuing Bachelor's, Master's, or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or Electrical Engineering, with more than 2 years of relevant industry experienceKnowledge of Digital IP development or Processor/Accelerator designYou're inclusive, adapting your style to the situation and diverse global norms of our people.An avid learner, you approach challenges with curiosity and resilience, seeking data to help build understanding.You're collaborative, building relationships, humbly offering support and openly welcoming approaches.Innovative and creative, you proactively explore new ideas and adapt quickly to change.#LI-AD1
