The AWS Graviton CPU based instances offer the best price/performance in AWS data centers, designed to deliver significant advancements in computing performance and efficiency. These instances are built end-to-end by AWS, providing us a unique opportunity to innovate and enhance how software runs in the largest data centers. For the past 2 years the majority of the new EC2 capacity is Graviton based, and it is used by over 90% of our 1,000 largest customers.
The Graviton Software team is dedicated to ensuring that all software used by our customers and Amazon teams fully leverage the Graviton hardware. We lead open-source development initiatives and collaborate closely with the AWS Annapurna team to design and build sustainable hardware and software solutions.
Our goal is to optimize performance across a wide range of applications, including databases, media, rendering engines, machine learning, high-performance computing, and libraries. Since we designed and built all the hardware and software components, we have the insights for advancement in the compiler field that was previously not possible due to the fragmentation.
Key job responsibilities
As a Compiler Principal Software Engineer, you will responsible for the technical strategy and direction optimizing code generation for Arm CPU cores using GCC and LLVM. You are passionate in advancing compiler technology; you will lead the design and development of new Graviton-specific features, upstream them to the open-source projects, and drive initiatives across the organization. You will be working closely with PEs and VPs responsible for the hardware and firmware design. In this role, you will have the opportunity to dive deep into code generation on a CPU where we have full visibility on micro-architecture level, and shaping the future of compiler technology and CPU architecture.
