Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) has reportedly posted a job ad for an ‘SoC Modelling Architect / Lead’, which probably provided many an insight into what the Cupertino giant may have planned for the future. The job post demanded a “unique and highly visible role” where the winning applicant will be placed at the center of a chip design effort interfacing with all disciplines.
Apple Inc. is looking for a candidate with as low as 10 years of SoC (System-on-a-Chip) design and micro-architecture experience, with key job on performance modeling, and with expertise in SoC level performance models such as CPUs, GPUs, memory systems, and power modeling. So, a question arises that where Apple Inc. (AAPL) wants to go with this?
The most important is that Apple is seeking somebody to look after its A5 and A6 processor designs, and bring such advancements to take these into the future. Several devices including the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch use these processors, and these devices are now large cash contributors for the Cupertino giant, accounting for billions of dollars every quarter.
