Sr/Principal Simulator Engineer – Simulator Developer
📍 Santa Clara, CA (Onsite)
I am seeking a Senior or Principal Simulator Engineer – Simulator Developer to join a well-funded, stealth-mode startup developing next-generation AI inference systems for data center-scale deployments. This is an opportunity to work at the intersection of computer architecture, hardware-software co-design, and high-performance systems, helping shape the future of AI infrastructure.
Backed by leading venture capital investors, the team is building a highly differentiated hardware and software platform designed to maximize efficiency for serving cutting-edge AI models at scale.
What You'll Do:
Design, develop, and maintain processor simulators, including both performance and functional models
Build detailed models of microarchitectural components such as pipelines, memory hierarchies, interconnects, and hardware accelerators
Generate and curate traces for accurate performance analysis and architectural evaluation
Analyze simulation results to drive key architecture decisions and system optimizations
Collaborate closely with hardware, architecture, and compiler engineering teams in a fast-paced co-design environment
Own critical simulation infrastructure from concept through production deployment
Contribute to the design of next-generation AI computing platforms built for large-scale inference
What We're Looking For:
5+ years of software engineering experience within systems software, computer architecture, or EDA environments
Strong programming skills in C/C++ and Python
Experience developing processor simulators, architectural models, or performance analysis tools from the ground up
Strong understanding of computer architecture and microarchitecture
Ability to work independently and take ownership within an early-stage startup environment
Experience with AI accelerators, GPUs, or heterogeneous computing systems
Familiarity with simulation frameworks such as gem5, gem5-SALAM, or proprietary architectural modeling tools
Background in hardware-software co-design or compiler technologies
This is an opportunity to have a direct impact on the architecture of next-generation AI infrastructure, working alongside a small team of highly experienced engineers solving some of the most challenging problems in high-performance computing and AI systems.
If you'd like to find out more, apply today!
