What You'll Do

  • Own the design, implementation, and evolution of an AI compiler toolchain that leverages AI agents to seamlessly map neural networks onto NXP’s SoC platforms.
  • Pioneer new graph transformations, lowering, scheduling, and codegen strategies for CPUs and custom accelerators, driven by insights from AI-powered analytics.
  • Build deep integrations with leading AI frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, ONNX, and more), using AI agents to rapidly onboard new model architectures and ops.
  • Push the envelope on quantization, operator fusion, memory planning, and layout transformations—combining human expertise and AI-guided design for state-of-the-art results.
  • Partner with hardware and software architects, kernel hackers, and AI agents to co-design next-gen compiler and accelerator features, aligning silicon and code for maximum impact.
  • Diagnose and crush performance bottlenecks with AI-enabled profiling and diagnostics, relentlessly tuning for latency, throughput, and power efficiency.
  • Level up validation, benchmarking, and regression pipelines by harnessing AI agents—ensuring compiler correctness and world-class performance, release after release.
  • Uplevel the developer experience by streamlining usability, diagnostics, and documentation—AI agents are your copilots for user support, troubleshooting, and rapid iteration.
