Nuvia
General Summary:
Research, innovate and provide SoC architecture platforms and solutions for all SoC’s across QCT. Engage collaboratively across teams and organizational boundaries, including with Hardware design & Verification, Software, Product Management and Product Planning teams to create leading SoC-wide solutions that provide the best-in-class cost, performance, and power. Develop, model and prototype new system solutions and approaches across functional tech IPs that allow our hardware technologies to be used efficiently and allow our customers to make better use of our hardware. Conduct hands-on workload analysis including algorithm optimization and analysis of performance and/or power characterizations to help define our SoC architecture solutions. Deploy simulators, profilers, and hardware solutions to provide quantitative justification for architectural directions. Efficiently communicate experimental results, review with technical leads and peers, and analyze outstanding issues. Innovate and develop new cross-IP SoC-wide solutions that enable existing and emerging market SoCs to meet their separate, unique product requirements for these technology areas: Power System, Shared Resource Management, Limits/Thermal Management, Hardware Islands, Debug, Safety, ARM Compliance, Exclusive Monitors and Far Atomics, Coherency, Memory Ordering, Memory Management, Virtualization, Control Processors, Signaling, Compression, Streaming, Always-On and system level ML.
Minimum Qualifications:
• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field and 6+ years of Systems Engineering or related work experience.Preferred Qualifications:
• Master's or Doctorate degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
• 6+ years of experience with programming (e.g., C, C++, Python), computer architecture, or embedded systems.
• 2+ years of work experience in a role requiring interaction with senior leadership (e.g., Director level and above).
• 1+ year in a technical leadership role with or without direct reports (only applies to positions with direct reports).
Principal Duties and Responsibilities:
• Gathers, researches, and helps define cross-functional requirements (e.g., performance, power, cost).
• Develops architecture for large or complex features under minimal guidance.
• Identifies and debugs complex issues for self and others and develops solutions; participates in model/design reviews and recommends model/design improvements.
• Builds platform, methodology, and tools for modeling and runs simulations and analyses of power, performance, and other KPIs at the sub-system level; interprets results and impact on system or customer requirements and provides feedback to cross-functional teams.
• Establishes rapport with internal or external users to align on project and feature implementation plans and ensure the needs of all stakeholders are met.
• Displays deep knowledge in multiple areas; acquires advanced knowledge of industry trends, competitors' products, and advances in various engineering fields related to areas of specialization; shares knowledge of multiple areas within their team and across teams working on similar products.
• Stays abreast of current and future trends to make suggestions in strategic discussions within and/or across domains about the product/technology roadmap.
• Leads conversations to generate new ideas and directions to explore for new initiatives; pursues opportunities to plan and develop new ideas.
• Writes clear and detailed technical documentation, specifications, and/or feature descriptions for highly complex or difficult projects to ensure users and/or customers can easily implement output.
Level of Responsibility:
• Works independently with little supervision.
• Provides some supervision/guidance to other members; does not have direct reports.
• Decisions are moderate in nature. Errors are detected and corrected with relatively minor financial impact or effect on projects, operations, or customer relationships. May require involvement beyond immediate work group to correct.
• Requires verbal and written communication skills to convey information that may be somewhat complex to others who may have limited knowledge of the subject in question. Role may require basic negotiation and influence, cooperation, tact, and diplomacy, etc.
• Works within the prescribed budgetary objectives of the department. Erroneous decisions, failure to achieve results may cause delays in schedules and result in the re-allocation of some resources.
• Has a moderate amount of influence over key organizational decisions (e.g., is consulted by senior leadership to make key decisions).
• Most tasks do not have defined steps; simultaneous use of multiple mental abilities is generally required to determine the best approach; mistakes may result in significant rework.
• Exceptional creativity to innovate new ideas and develop innovative products/ processes without established objectives or known parameters.
• Deductive and inductive problem solving is required; multiple approaches may be taken/necessary to solve the problem; often information is missing or conflicting; advanced data analysis and interpretation skills are required.
• Occasionally participates in strategic planning within own area affecting immediate operations.
