Summary
Felipe Da Rosa is a Principal Modeling Engineer with 11 years of expertise building instruction-accurate virtual platforms and system-level simulations for Arm-based designs, from microcontrollers to large multicore systems. He blends deep research experience (PhD-level work on dark-silicon and radiation fault modeling) with hands-on engineering, having ported manycore platforms and integrated performance and power estimation into commercial simulation engines. At Arm he has led platform integration and complex system interconnection projects (e.g., CMN600, CI700, Total Compute FVP), improving simulation infrastructure and enabling faster bring-up of early software stacks. Felipe’s work spans fault injection, cycle/power estimation, architecture exploration and simulation performance tuning, and he thrives on connecting heterogeneous components to make realistic workloads feasible in virtual platforms. Fluent in both academic research and product engineering, he spent formative years in Brazil, France and the UK, which informs his pragmatic approach to scalable simulation solutions. A detail that often goes unnoticed: he uses virtual platforms to turn multi-day RTL boots into hours-long experiments, enabling practical reliability and ML workload studies.
