Job Description:

### Memory Subsystems and Low-Power Data Transport

**Level:** Principal Architect/Distinguished Architect

**Function:** Silicon Architecture AI/ML Accelerators

---

## The Role

You will define the end-to-end memory *and* data transport architecture for our

accelerators from the memory technology we bet on through the controller on-die network

and DMA engines all the way into the scratchpads feeding the compute blocks. This is not a

pick the DRAM generation role. It is ownership of the whole data path across multiple

silicon generations including the performance-versus-power analysis that decides major

trade-offs and the co-architecture with internal teams and external memory/IP vendors.

---

## What Youll Own

**Memory architecture and roadmap.** Multi-generation memory strategy across the portfolio

HBM LPDDR/GDDR/DDR on-die SRAM hierarchies and scratchpads.

Capacity bandwidth and latency requirements derived from real AI workloads

(model size KV-cache growth prefill versus decode MoE sparsity). Memory controller and

cache/scratchpad microarchitecture: scheduling address mapping QoS across compute DMA

and host traffic.

**Data transport and energy-efficient movement.** The complete path from memory to the MACs:

on-die interconnect (topology flow control deadlock avoidance QoS under mixed traffic)

and the DMA gather/scatter layout-transform and multicast engines that make it usable.

You own the pJ/bit budget as a first-class constraint.

**Modeling and silicon realization.** Analytical and simulation-based models that make

architectural calls with quantified confidence.

## Minimum Qualifications

- MSEE/MSCE or PhD in EE CE CS or related field or equivalent demonstrated

architectural impact.

- 18 years in ASIC/SoC architecture focused on memory systems and data movement for HPC or

AI. Deep knowledge of memory subsystems: HBM DDR/LPDDR/GDDR controller architecture cache

coherency and memory consistency models tiered and pooled memory.

- Demonstrated ownership of a data movement architecture on-die interconnect DMA/copy

engines buffer hierarchies and the dataflow connecting them to compute including what

each protocol (NVLink UALink RDMA ARM CHI UCIe PCIe) actually costs in latency area and power.

- Strong performance modeling and system-level simulation background; first-principles

command of latency throughput utilization and scalability.
