Descrizione

Testo originale dell'annuncio (in inglese)

Compute System Architecture (CSA) is a center of excellence at imec for hardware-software-technology co-design for future compute systems. We work in close collaboration with other expertise centers in imec specializing in applications, technology, circuits and design to innovate and pathfind next-generation compute system architectures across multiple domains – AI, HPC, Automotive, Space, and more. CSA has presence in 6 centers of IMEC, in Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, UK, USA and Qatar. This position is primarily for Leuven, Belgium. What you will do We are looking for an experienced Network Architect/Researcher to join our team. In this position, you will play a key role in pathfinding future network designs enabled by emerging architectural and technological innovations (e.g., photonic/optical interconnect, wireless, etc.) . This R&D role focuses on network architecture and design at all levels of a compute system, spanning networks-on-chip, IO chiplets/dies, scale-up and scale-out network at machine-scale, depending on the impact of emerging technologies in various application domains. You will be expected to collaborate with experts from application, technology, circuit, and design domains to evaluate the impact of technological innovations in network architecture of the future. Your responsibilities will include: Collaborate with cross-functional teams in applications, technology, circuits and design (across imec) to define novel technology-aware network architectures. Lead feasibility studies through performance modeling and prototyping to provide expert guidance on design and implementation of next-gen network architectures. Engage in R&D activities within project teams to take research ideas towards higher maturity levels, solving hands-on technical and engineering challenges in the process. Stay up to date with the advancements in network architectures in compute systems, specifically in terms of novel technologies, design, and application domains. Contribute to project definitions and the technical scope of work (timeline, work packages, milestones, deliverables) in close cooperation with the stakeholders. Supervise or assist in mentoring Masters/Doctoral students/interns when necessary, and contribute to improved ways of working and shared knowledge across CSA. P ublish relevant results and artefacts in high-impact journals, conferences , seminars and open-source ecosystems to highlight CSA contributions to the community.
