ASIC Architect

Meta is seeking an ASIC Architect with a focus on security and cloud deployment of high performance, high complexity ASICs. This role is on the silicon team within the Infrastructure organization which is responsible for designing and operating all of Meta’s Data Centers. These Data Centers are the foundation upon which our rapidly scaling business operates, and upon which all of our services such as Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp etc. are delivered to our worldwide user base consisting of approximately half of the world’s population. This silicon team is responsible for building hardware accelerators for Data Center servers, to offload the most computationally demanding workloads and execute them with higher performance and lower energy consumption as compared to running them on the CPU/GPU of the server. In this role, you will be defining the architecture of the next generation of Machine Learning, Networking, and other ASICs being built on the most modern process technologies and featuring industry-leading performance and feature sets. Architect the security sub system of ASICs to be deployed in Meta’s Data Centers as well as in public cloud environments Define architectural features such as Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), Virtual Device Composition (VDC), Scalable I/O Virtualization (SIOV), and related features that enable the deployment of secure ASICs in an insecure/public environment Identify appropriate workloads and micro-benchmarks to test and validate the secure operation of ASIC and server hardware under a variety of deployment scenarios Collaborate with cross functional teams working on RTL design, Design Verification, Firmware/Software development, Pre-Post silicon validation and Program Management to deliver first pass functional silicon on an aggressive schedule Collaborate with software and firmware teams to ensure that the ASIC meets end to end security goals while maintaining ease and efficiency of software development Collaborate with post-silicon verification teams for silicon bring-up in the lab, and new product introduction teams to ensure security features are validated and appropriately configured for Data Center and public cloud deployments Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience Experience and knowledge of Computer Architecture concepts such as microprocessor architecture, memory systems, on-chip interconnection networks etc Experience and knowledge of security systems and protocols such as TEE, VDC etc 6+ years of prior experience in defining and delivering multiple high performance ASICs into production, with direct experience on technologies and standards related to ASIC security Master's or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or related field
