## Description

This role is responsible for bridging system memory architecture with AI model behavior, ensuring optimal performance through HW/SW co-design and workload-aware tuning.

The role develops AI workload optimization strategies for faster model startup, improved inferencing efficiency, and reduced memory needs.

Responsibilities:

- Analyze system bandwidth, latency, and compute bottlenecks

- Model performance across CPU/GPU/NPU for AI workloads

- Simulate workload execution (PnP tradeoffs, resource contention)

- Optimize model execution (initialization time, caching, KV reuse)

- Drive HW/SW co-design (memory, caching, scheduling)

- Partner with ML teams to align model structure with system architecture

- Leverage recognized technical and business expertise to define long-term vision and strategy for electrical hardware design and development across multiple feature areas and divisional boundaries

- Develop technology roadmaps for electrical/hardware engineering teams; identify gaps and solutions for future growth

- Communicate strategy and technology roadmaps to executive staff, industry partners, and customers

- Provide innovative solutions and integrate advanced technologies, theories, or techniques with a significant impact across disciplines

- Provide consultation, design input, and feedback for new product development and design reviews across multiple organizations and architectures

- Work closely with product management, engineering stakeholders from related departments, and empower teams to deliver outstanding and impactful results

- Initiate industry-leading research and development, serving as a recognized lead authority internally and externally

- Provide mentoring and guidance to less-experienced staff members to set an example of electrical hardware design and development, innovation, and excellence

- Participate in and provide input on the process for the selection of future technical leaders

Education & Experience Recommended:

- Four-year or Graduate Degree in Electrical Engineering, or any other related discipline or commensurate work experience or demonstrated competence

- Typically has 12+ years of work experience, preferably in electrical design and tools, software packages, architecture of electronic hardware, or a related field

Benefits:

- Health insurance

- Dental insurance

- Vision insurance

- Long-term/short-term disability insurance
