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 ## Related Videos - [Xcode development redefAIned](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100195-xcode-development-redefained) - [Coffee with Developers - Stephen Jones - NVIDIA](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1303-coffee-with-developers-stephen-jones-nvidia) - [Swapping a Data Warehouse at Runtime: Zero-Downtime Migration Without Changing a Single Client](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100311-swapping-a-data-warehouse-at-runtime-zero-downtime-migration-without-changing-a-single-client) - [Tour de Force: Open-Source LLM Inference Optimization from Simple to Sophisticated](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100099-tour-de-force-open-source-llm-inference-optimization-from-simple-to-sophisticated) - [Trends, Challenges and Best Practices for AI at the Edge](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/630-trends-challenges-and-best-practices-for-ai-at-the-edge) - [Edge AI on iOS: Beyond the Cloud, Designing the Next Generation of Intelligent On-Device Apps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100225-edge-ai-on-ios-beyond-the-cloud-designing-the-next-generation-of-intelligent-on-device-apps) ## Related Articles - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Everything a Developer Needs to Know About MCP with Neo4j](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/604-everything-a-developer-needs-to-know-about-mcp-with-neo4j) - [MLOps And AI Driven Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/82-mlops-and-ai-driven-development) - [Dev Digest 118 - not a total recall](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/452-dev-digest-118-not-a-total-recall) - [Stephan Gillich - Bringing AI Everywhere](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/489-stephan-gillich-bringing-ai-everywhere) - [How software is steering vehicle technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/515-how-software-is-steering-vehicle-technology)
