If your jam is low-level programming, high-performance DSPs, and working close to the metal, this one’s for you. What You Will Do: Profile, analyze, and optimize performance, power, and area trade-offs; develop and optimize embedded software for high-performance multicore DSP platforms; leverage SIMD, VLIW, and fractional arithmetic; work closely with hardware design teams to use ISA and micro-architecture details; integrate DMA strategies; build/use/maintain pre-silicon validation platforms such as virtual prototypes. What You Will Bring: Strong experience in embedded/low-level programming; solid understanding of computer architecture and micro-architecture; hands-on SIMD and VLIW programming; DMA integration knowledge; familiarity with fractional arithmetic in DSP; experience with ISA documentation/development; exposure to virtual prototypes or pre-silicon validation; proficiency in C/C++, Assembly, Intrinsics; ability to analyze performance bottlenecks and optimize for PPA. Bonus Points: Experience with CEVA DSPs (SensePro SP500/SP1000) and MRD accelerators; familiarity with CEVA’s instruction set, toolchains, and performance optimization techniques for sensing applications. Location: Boston MA (hybrid).
