We are seeking highly motivated and detail-oriented software engineers to join our chip simulation team. We’re building Sohu, the world’s first transformer ASIC that leverages tight hardware-software co-design to deliver world-best performance. The chip simulation team plays a key role in hardware-software co-design, enabling early development of the full Sohu software stack. As a software engineer on this team, you will design, develop, and test simulations of our custom hardware systems. You will be working at the cutting edge of hardware innovation, ensuring that our software and hardware teams are able to closely coordinate on their development paths.
Job Responsibility:
Simulation Development: Design, develop, and maintain simulations of our hardware. Ensuring high levels of accuracy, efficient debugging, and optimal performance
Documentation: Create and maintain test plans, work with hardware teams to validate their documentation
Debug tooling: Build tools to debug simulations, and enable developers to debug software running on the simulator
Cross-functional Collaboration and Troubleshooting: Chip simulation engineers are expected to work closely with both hardware and software engineers to make sure that our simulations are accurate, and that software engineers are able to use them with a high level of productivity
Requirements:
Proficiency in C/C++
Strong understanding of low-level software engineering
Strong understanding of hardware engineering
Excellent communication and collaboration skills
Nice to have:
Experience developing hardware or system simulations (e.g., SystemC, gem5, QEMU, or custom frameworks)
Experience with custom ML hardware accelerators (e.g., Google TPU)
Experience with firmware, kernel and driver development (e.g., Linux, FreeRTOS)
Experience with hardware development and verification
Experience with multiprocessing and multithreading
Familiarity with bit-accurate numerics modeling
Experience with performance profiling and optimization of simulation code
Proficiency with Python for test harness development, bazel, and git
