The role
Our GPU & AI hardware teams need an industry-leading automated tool stack to produce our upcoming IP roadmap - so the 'Hardware Tools & Flows' team has been created to ensure that we have a hyper-fast, resilient build system that optimizes tool use, scales with our needs, and continually maximises simulation workloads on our distributed compute grid.
As a founding member of our team, you are joining us at a start of a revolution - with your technical expertise, innovation mindset, and 'get stuff done' attitude, you'll help us shape our team culture, and define our tools, design principles and standards.

You will:
* Help create and maintain a lightning-fast, resilient, scalable build system that templates, renders and compiles many languages for many targets - and feeds machine learning algorithms with data about its operation.
* Ruthlessly optimise, refactor, and deprecate existing production tools, flows, scripts.
* Integrate and optimise use of external-vendor EDA tools & suites.
* Improve and maintain continuous integration/ delivery pipelines for our work.
* Profile, optimise and debug our simulation workloads to improve performance.
