Beyond Moore Computational Research Scientist
California, United States
Full-time
Hybrid
Mid, Senior Level
$95K/yr - $227K/yr
3+ years expBerkeley Lab's Applied Math and Computational Sciences Division is seeking a Beyond Moore Computational Research Scientist to enhance computing performance through architectural specialization. The role involves designing circuits and hardware accelerators, developing methodologies for performance characterization, and contributing to the field of extreme heterogeneous computing.
Newspapers
Responsibilities
Design circuits, hardware accelerators and processor architectures using post-Moore devices to accelerate key HPC applications and application kernels
Develop compact models and methodologies to use these circuits for performance and energy characterizations which can be used in architectural simulation framework for tightly integrating these accelerators into heterogeneous systems and SoCs that may contain multiple different kinds of accelerator devices
Identify opportunities and challenges for devices to architectural design space exploration for several post-Moore devices to address those bottlenecks and develop circuit design models to determine the performance potential for those solutions
Develop architectural and circuit models for emulation in FPGA hardware
Develop metrics and benchmark tests in order to compare conventional CMOS based processors/accelerators and enhanced post-Moore devices based computational accelerators for key HPC applications and algorithms
Publish work in academic journals and present it at conferences and workshops
Lead and assist in the preparation of proposals for funding
Mentor graduate students and postdocs
Qualification
Required
PhD or equivalent in a Computing Science or Computer Engineering-related scientific discipline
Mandatory 3 Years of Postdoctoral research experience or equivalent research experience
Past Experience in either Machine learning accelerators or SRAM array design or basic blocks of processor at transistor level and/or Superconducting circuit design
