Senior System Power Management and Performance Architect

NVIDIA has continuously reinvented itself over two decades. Our invention of the GPU in 1999 sparked the growth of the PC gaming market, redefined modern computer graphics, and revolutionized parallel computing. More recently, GPU deep learning ignited modern AI — the next era of computing. NVIDIA is a "learning machine" that constantly evolves by adapting to new challenges that are hard to tackle, that only we can pursue, and that matter to the world. This is our life's work to amplify human inventiveness and intelligence. Choose to join us today.

NVIDIA Silicon Solutions Group seeks a hardworking engineer to join our team. As a team member, you will architect and design system-level features with a deep understanding of product needs, to be delivered to notebook, desktop, embedded, automotive, and professional solution markets.

What you'll be doing:

• Build roadmaps for system-level features to address low-power, low-noise, perf/watt efficient, and stable/reliable product needs by prototyping, use-case analysis, and system-level cost/benefit trade-offs.

• Architect, design, and integrate system-level features, controllers, and policies - including binning, pairing, and adaptive control techniques based on the roadmap to optimize product performance, power, and reliability/stability.

• Collaborate with architecture, ASIC, board/platform design, software/firmware, marketing, and other multi-functional teams to drive architecture, design, and debug.

• Expand power improvement initiatives to cover a wider range of products and market segments, including high-demand environments such as data centers. Drive scalable, power-efficient, and reliable memory system solutions across diverse platforms.

• Keep track of the latest industry direction, market needs, and technology development; incorporate them into future roadmaps to build more competitive products.

What we need to see:

• BS or MS degree in EE/CE or equivalent experience.

• 12+ years of experience in system architecture, design, and validation, with a strong focus on system-level features that optimize power for perf-per-watt efficiency in datacenter or high-perf systems.

• Strong fundamentals in low-power design, power management techniques, and rack-level performance architecture.

• It is crucial to have a deep understanding of how system-level features interact with different IPs and SW/FW, including their impact on power, latency, and reliability.

• Experience with control systems, boot/reset flows, and memory controller micro-architecture.

• Excellent problem-solving, teamwork, and interpersonal skills.

• Experience with Python, Perl, C/C++, Windows, and Linux is a plus.

At NVIDIA, it's not just about technology—it's about people. Our culture, built on innovation, perfection, determination, and teamwork, drives us to be the best. NVIDIA is home to some of the brightest minds in the world, and we strive to further creativity and passion in everything we do. We want to hear from you if you're driven and ready to make an impact!
