CPU Architect

Location

Dover, DE | United States

Job description

at Intel in Dover, Delaware, United States

Develops and drives end to end CPU architecture specifications for highly optimized, modular, and scalable CPU based on hardware features, requirements, and interoperability of hardware and software throughout the product life cycle. Understands the CPU requirements and defines targets (performance, power, frequency, and area) and content (features) that meet the requirements. Evaluates feasibility tradeoffs, explores, and defines new approaches and novel architectures for CPU . Invents, conceptualizes, and specifies architectural and microarchitecture features to deliver optimized CPU requirements for multiple segments from high performance computing to extreme low power products. Develops, defines, and documents new instructions to support new use cases and to improve existing use cases and support the new instruction set architecture ( ISA ). Models CPU performance and power, analyzes the bottlenecks of current CPUs on workloads that reflect CPU future usage. Develops tests, test plans, and testing infrastructure for new architectures/features for CPU , performs functional modeling simulations, and conducts analysis of test results using advanced statistics and data predictions for benchmarking performance and determining areas for improvement. Provides experimental/proof of concept changes for proposing design alternatives meeting performance, power, area, and timing constraints. Reviews, challenges, and influences cross functional roadmaps and defines technology targets for future CPUs. Collaborates with architects, design, verification, and validation engineers during the execution of the project. Delivers definition of new microarchitecture and finds mitigations for issues that arise during feature implementation to improve the overall design of CPU and overcome bottlenecks and constraints.
