SoC Product Architect Low Power SoC

About the role

NVIDIA is seeking a senior SoC/Product Architect to define and drive the architecture of next-generation low-power SoCs. You will own concept-to-product architecture decisions — balancing power, performance, and area — while partnering across CPU, GPU, memory, and IO teams to resolve system-level trade-offs and acting as the technical interface for product requirements and customer feedback.

What You'll Be Doing

• Define SoC architecture for low-power platforms — CPU, GPU, memory subsystem, low-power IOs, and power management
• Drive concept-level PPA trade-off analysis and lead the power/performance budget across the SoC
• Architect the memory subsystem (LPDDR5/6, on-chip SRAM, bandwidth, QoS) for constrained power envelopes
• Work with DL teams for evaluating and crafting workloads for low power — mapping tasks to constrained hardware; define optimization opportunities in partnership with Nvidia's DL team
• Partner with CPU, GPU, and IO architecture teams inside NVIDIA to align on shared IPs and integration strategies
• Translate customer requirements into architectural constraints; drive PRD development and requirements triage
• Engage directly with customers pre-silicon to collect feedback and follow through on product decisions

What We Need To See

• 12+ years in SoC or product architecture, with deep hands-on knowledge of CPU, GPU, memory, and low-power IO subsystems
• Master's Degree in Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering (or equivalent experience)
• Strong understanding of SoC architecture for low power mobile devices, including DVFS, power domains, and retention strategies
• Experience with DL inference at the edge (TensorRT, TFLite, ONNX) and mapping workloads to constrained hardware
• Track record of driving architecture decisions across multi-functional teams in a large organization

Pay

Base salary range: 224,000 USD - 356,500 USD for Level 5, and 272,000 USD - 431,250 USD for Level 6. You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
