Modern system-on-chip (SoC) designs have dramatically changed how hardware and software is developed. The Apple CPU Architecture and Performance Team is seeking highly motivated and self-driven engineers who want to live at the intersection of hardware and software. As a CPU Performance and Workload Analysis Architect, you will drive advanced exploration for next-generation CPU architectures. You'll be the interface between the CPU team, system teams, and many software teams at Apple. Your work will involve profiling and analyzing existing and emerging workloads, developing performance analysis tools, and guiding optimizations for future CPUs. You'll also work with software developers to optimize code for Apple's CPU designs and roadmap. This role requires a deep understanding of CPU architecture, strong coding skills, and the ability to develop domain expertise in emerging fields like AI and AR/VR. You'll be part of a world-class team contributing to the development of cutting-edge technology for Apple's products.
