About the role

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Performance Analysis engineer to join our diverse team at Arm! Our team focuses on Performance Analysis of Arm based automotive systems build together in pre-silicon (Virtual Prototypes & FPGAs) and postsilicon environments.

Working closely with design teams, and customers, we develop best-in-class silicon platforms across the Automotive ecosystem. To help its partnership and ecosystem navigate this sophisticated landscape Arm has been investing in initiatives like SOAFEE (soafee.io) to help create collaboration and standardization.

The Automotive LoB at Arm is also pioneering Virtual Prototyping technologies to help accelerate software development of Automotive applications well before the silicon becomes available.

Responsibilities:

This role will involve enabling analysis on innovative technologies like State of the Art FPGAs and Virtual Prototypes to ensure automotive software runs best on Arm. The analysis and results generated will be used to drive the configurations and features in hardware along with contributing towards optimizing across software stack verticals. There is a lot of scope for growth in depth and breadth and a successful candidate would need to be versatile and eager to expand their knowledge and expertise.

Responsibilities:

As a Performance Analysis Engineer, you will be responsible for:

Efficiently, and creatively drive and investigate performance of automotive software and use-cases.

Perform workload characterization to identify performance bottlenecks and propose solutions.

System level analysis of performance, CPU/GPU/memory/bandwidth utilization, power dissipation etc.

Instrumenting real-world software workloads for real-world performance and efficiency measurements

Developing tools and implementing workloads to push systems to their limits

Writing up findings and presenting them with the LoB and engineering divisions.

Required Skills and Experience:

Experience in SoC Performance Modelling, and performance analysis in the semiconductor industry.

Degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Electronics Engineering, Computer Architecture

Understanding of general-purpose CPU microarchitecture, including knowledge of areas such as processor pipelines, caches, and memory hierarchy.

Proficient in C/C++ for programming for large-scale software development

Proficiency in Python and other scripting language skills.

Excellent communication, and interpersonal skills with ability to convey effectively complicated solutions.

Experience with Performance Analysis tools like perf, vTune, Streamline.

“Nice to have” skills and Experience:

Experience in Automotive Software development and use of Virtual Prototyping solutions.

Understanding of workloads used for performance optimization

Experience with Unix, scripting, and source control systems (e.g., Git, Subversion).

Experience with pre-silicon platforms such as Models, RTL simulation, emulation or FPGA.

Data analysis and visualisation, for example Jupyter Notebooks

Experience with Linux or Android based development platforms

Experience with any Graphics APIs and or Compute APIs (OpenGL, Vulkan etc. )

Experience in Real-Time software development and testing

Experience in ML frameworks and optimizations

In return:

At Arm, you will enjoy working in a highly stimulating collaborative environment. Our team works closely with other software, hardware and system teams across the company. You will be working at the pioneering of automotive compute technologies and contributing to the future of the Automotive Industry.

You will get to interact with Arm’s Automotive ecosystem of developers and engineers and have a chance to share ideas with and learn new skills from the best engineers in the world.
