Enable America Jobs

Summary:

Reality Labs (RL) focuses on delivering Meta’s vision through Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR). The compute performance and power efficiency requirements of Virtual and Augmented Reality require custom silicon. The Silicon team at Meta is driving the state of the art forward with breakthrough work in Computer Vision, Machine Learning, Mixed Reality, Graphics, Displays, Sensors, and new ways to map the human body. Our chips will enable AR and VR devices where our real and virtual world will mix and match throughout the day. We believe the only way to achieve our goals is to look at the entire stack, from transistors, through architecture, to firmware and algorithms.

We are seeking research interns with a background in Performance Modeling, Simulation Methodologies, Computer Architecture, Data Compression techniques for Capacity and BW and micro-architectures supporting them. This team focuses on modeling and power/performance optimization of custom Silicon that enables compelling end user experiences on mobile AR/VR systems. In this role, you will partner with Architects and Chip designers to build high accuracy performance models that mimic the SoC architecture and project performance for key AR/VR use cases.

Our internships are twelve (12) to sixteen (16) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year.

Required Skills:

Research Intern - Silicon Performance Architect (PhD) Responsibilities:

1. Carry out performance & power architecture exploration through detailed modeling and analysis of one or more of the following functions/components: custom compute components, shared interconnect in a heterogeneous SoC, shared cache/memory subsystem in a heterogeneous SoC, traditional DRAM controllers and 3D stacked memory

2. Explore various architectures that are targeted towards reducing memory BW and/or memory capacity

3. Create simulation infrastructure that will support exploring various memory hierarchies

4. QoS, latency and throughput analysis for heterogeneous platforms consisting of multiple agents with competing resource requirements
