Computer Architect

Imagine a technology that would improve memory performance without doing any changes in the memory itself by compressing all memory data in nanoseconds. As a part of “33-listan”, a list of the most promising innovative companies in Sweden, ZeroPoint Technologies are inventing something that has never been done before.
Join ZeroPoint Technologies journey from Chalmers to Palo Alto and apply for this unique opportunity now!
Responsibilities:
As a Computer Architect you will be a part of a tight group with a bunch of highly skilled computer architects, performance analysts, ASIC designers, Linux hackers, and business developers in the creative and entrepreneurial environment coworking place Mektagonen gives their guests. The Architecture Team is packaging the innovative technology into an IP block deciding the IP architecture and its integration into the system. This includes detailed modelling of the target IP and performance analysis before deriving the final hardware specifications. They take full ownership of their work and responsibility for the quality. This involves:
Architecture design of IP blocks and integration to the system-on-chip of future systems
Modelling in architecture simulation tools, such as GEM5.
Performance analysis using existing tools or developing new tools.
Transforming customer requirements to system specifications for a Hardware-Software system.

Qualifications:
A Ph.D. degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or at least 5 years of industrial/academic experience in computer/system architecture.
Excellence in modern computer architecture design principles, particularly related to cache/memory systems.
Extensive experience in computer architecture simulation environments, such as GEM5, PIN, Sniper.
Extensive experience in programming in (but not limited to) C/C++ and Python.
Team spirit, good communication skills and ability to work independently.

Meritorious skills:
Prior industrial experience is meritorious (if PhD graduate)

ZeroPoint is looking for a hard working team player who likes to brainstorm new ideas.
Application:
Selection and interviews will take place on an ongoing basis. The position may be filled before the last day of application, therefore, apply as soon as possible.
Apply with the following content:
A description of the applicant’s exams
A Curriculum Vitae
A description of software/hardware experience and skills, with example of achievements if applicable

About ZeroPoint Technologies:
ZeroPoint Technologies AB research and develop a real time, high-performance, low latency memory compression technology that doubles the memory capacity and bandwidth. The benefits of their technology are many-fold: increased memory capacity without increasing the memory area thus better performance; improved memory off-chip bandwidth allowing better scaling of processing elements; higher performance at same cost.
ZeroPoint Technologies offers a fun working environment that boosts creativity, innovation and teamwork, which are the core values of the company and important values for their success! They also have a good work life balance and flexible work hours.
