Do you have the right skills and experience for this role Read on to find out, and make your application.

SiMa.ai is seeking an outstanding researcher working on efficient deep learning to join the MLSoC Platform Architecture team.

We are passionate about pushing the boundaries of Edge AI with power efficient inferencing. We are particularly interested in Post Training Quantization and Pruning techniques applied to quantization of CNN and Transformer based Neural Networks for inference primarily on int8 Machine Learning Accelerator (MLA) and on mixed precision MLA.

You will work with an amazing team of engineers that pushes the boundaries and your contributions will have a chance to create a real impact in our products.

Sr. Principal Engineer Key Responsibilities (including but not limited to) :
• Research, design and implement novel methods to improve PTQ techniques for both int8 and mixed-precision (int8 + bf16) quantization.
• Collaborate with other team members to understand the limitations of our Machine Learning Accelerator and adapt your strategy based on their input.
• Prototype PTQ techniques using Fake Quantization in PyTorch, as well as modify internal tools to implement quantized operators to verify accuracy.
• Help define timeline and deliverables and be accountable for them.

Required Background :
• PhD in electrical engineering or computer science with 6+ years research numerical methods and tools in efficient Neural Network inferencing.
