Software Engineer, Staff - AI Simulator Tool

d-Matrix has fundamentally changed the physics of memory-compute integration with our digital in-memory compute (DIMC) engine. The “holy grail” of AI compute has been to break through the memory wall to minimize data movements. We’ve achieved this with a first-of-its-kind DIMC engine. Having secured over $154M, $110M in our Series B offering, d-Matrix is poised to advance Large Language Models to scale Generative inference acceleration with our chiplets and In-Memory compute approach. We are on track to deliver our first commercial product in 2024. We are poised to meet the energy and performance demands of these Large Language Models. The company has 100+ employees across Silicon Valley, Sydney and Bengaluru.

Our pedigree comes from companies like Microsoft, Broadcom, Inphi, Intel, Texas Instruments, Lucent, MIPS and Wave Computing. Our past successes include building chips for all the cloud hyperscalers globally - Amazon, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Alibaba, Tencent along with enterprise and mobile operators like China Mobile, Cisco, Nokia, Ciena, Reliance Jio, Verizon, AT&AT. We are recognized leaders in the mixed signal, DSP connectivity space, now applying our skills to next generation AI.  

Location: Breckenridge, CO or Santa Clara, CA (HQ)

What You Will Do:

In this role, you will join D-Matrix’s Simulations team. The team provides virtual platforms that enable software development early in our product development cycle. These platforms include functional reference models, cycle-approximate simulations, and detailed cycle-accurate simulations.

You will be responsible for providing a functional reference model that can be used to simulate the computations executed on our hardware. You have contributed to a bit-accurate functional model of a developing architecture. Given a specification document, you can produce a functional model of a hardware block. You are proficient in C++ and comfortable maintaining a library used by many customers. Ideally, you have experience in DV and debugging differences between specification, model, and RTL.

What You Will Bring:

• BS + at least 5 years C++ experience

• Proficient in C++

• Comfortable developing in a Linux environment using common version control and development tools

• Experience on DV team or otherwise writing functional models of a hardware architecture

• Ability to work with other teams to triage functional issues

Desired:

• Prior startup, small team, or incubation experience

• Knowledge of modeling frameworks such as SPARTA or SystemC

• Experience with distributed systems, HPC, or cloud computing

• Familiarity with common transformer and generative ML models such as BERT, GPT2, and Llama
