SoC Performance Engineer - Platform Architecture

As an SoC Performance Engineer at Apple, you'll be part of the SoC Performance group working on industry-leading SoCs powering products from iPhone to Apple Watch, Macs, iPads, Vision Pro, and more. You'll analyze how SoCs are used in real-world scenarios, including demanding new use cases like Apple Intelligence, to optimize software performance and improve future SoC designs.

Key responsibilities include:

• Tuning and architecting enhancements to HW+SW power/performance control systems and policies in new products
• Building novel HW+SW data capture and analysis tools
• Developing C++ SoC performance models for use case capture and playback
• Collaborating with IP and chip architects on high-impact studies for future SoC features

You'll work at the intersection of pre-silicon performance modeling and post-silicon power and performance tuning. This role requires a strong background in computer architecture, coding skills in C, C++, and Python, and the ability to navigate complex systems.

The ideal candidate will have:

• A Bachelor's degree (Master's or PhD preferred) in EE, CS, or related field
• 3+ years of relevant experience
• Experience in computer system performance modeling or simulation
• Strong communication skills
• Enthusiasm for collaborating with experts across various domains
• Background in performance, power, and thermal optimization
• Ability to develop new tools and techniques for data analysis, including Machine Learning
• Experience with embedded systems, parallel programming, or ML workload optimization

Join Apple's team of performance architects and contribute to maintaining and improving the performance, efficiency, and hardware/software integration of Apple's cutting-edge products!
