Summary:

The compute performance and power efficiency requirements of these products require custom silicon. The Silicon team is driving state-of-the-art advancements in computer vision, machine learning, mixed reality, graphics, displays, sensors, and human-body mapping.

We are seeking a Software Engineer with expertise in compiler development (such as LLVM or higher-level IR) and code optimization for ISAs like x86, ARM, or RISC-V.

Responsibilities:

• Develop optimized software in an embedded environment for vector machines.
• Build an optimization flow or compiler automation for a SIMD or vector processor.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Build an optimization flow or compiler automation for a SIMD or vector processor.
• 5+ years of experience designing and implementing complex real-time systems using C/C++ for embedded processors.
• 5+ years of experience in software development for imaging and CV algorithms or related signal processing fields.
• Strong C/C++ programming and refactoring skills.
• Ability to understand and debug heavily threaded code.

Education Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent relevant experience
• MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Theoretical knowledge in computer vision, machine learning, image processing, or ISP sensors.
• Experience with low-level software optimization at the instruction level, including loop optimization, vectorization, data organization, and caching.
• Theoretical knowledge of audio pipelines and algorithms, including capture, rendering, and codecs.
• Experience developing imaging and CV or related signal processing algorithms (e.g., OpenCV, Eigen, Halide, Game Physics, 3D Graphics, CODECs, or Communication).
• Prior experience with ARM or RISC-V CPUs, or Tensilica DSP architectures.

Interview Process:

Three sequential interviews covering:

• General coding and problem-solving
• Modern C/C++ coding and compiler expertise
• System design and AI

Coding Requirement: Focusing on C/C++ with expertise in domain-specific areas like computer vision, audio signal processing, and AI/ML.
