Job description

RISC-V CPU Compiler Engineer

Are you passionate about maximizing CPU performance and pushing the boundaries of optimization? Join our innovative team and play a key role in developing cutting-edge solutions that empower developers and transform server efficiency! Our team builds open source compiler toolsets for Qualcomm silicon. This includes compilers, assemblers, linkers, libraries, debuggers, profilers, and other developer tools. The toolsets enable internal and external developers to build software ecosystems on Qualcomm hardware. We are looking for engineers who will work actively in open source communities to establish and augment compiler and system software toolsets and bring compiler optimizations into key open source packages.

In this role, you will add and enhance support for Qualcomm hardware in open source projects. You will collaborate with Qualcomm hardware and software engineers to enable efficient usage of Qualcomm's silicon for a broad set of applications. You will work with the team on the entire compilation stack including optimizing code generation, improving performance, response time and programmer usability.

Responsibilities:

  • Work primarily in the LLVM community to add features and improve performance for Qualcomm CPUs with a focus on the RISC-V architecture.
  • Identify areas for improvement in LLVM via benchmarking and code analysis of workloads, comparisons with other compilers and architectures, etc.
  • Collaborate with hardware teams to plan, identify, and contribute support in open source projects for hardware features in Qualcomm silicon.
  • Identify areas for improvement in tool usability via interaction with users.
  • Explore new optimization frameworks for leveraging advance CPU features.

Required Skills:

  • Knowledge and/or experience in LLVM development, particularly optimization and code generation.
  • Experience in working with open source communities
  • Programming in C/C++

Preferred skills:

  • Established record of contributions to LLVM.
  • Experience with the RISC-V or AArch64 architecture.
  • Experience with other compilers such as GCC and the wider ecosystem such as glibc, assemblers, linkers, loaders, system libraries.
  • Experience in configuring, building, and analyzing server CPU benchmarks (e.g., SPECrate Integer, DCPerf), as well as measuring and tracking key performance indicators.
  • Strong background in computer architecture

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field and 4+ years of Hardware Engineering, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience. OR Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field and 3+ years of Hardware Engineering, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience. OR PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field and 2+ years of Hardware Engineering, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience.

Pay range and Other Compensation & Benefits: $167,100.00 - $250,700.00
