## Description

NVIDIA is searching for a highly motivated, technical engineer to join the Tegra system-on-chip (SoC) software organization. You will work on key aspects of our ARM SW ecosystem and system software architecture. With a targeted charter to enable best-in-class datacenter-scale performance and efficiency for our next generation of datacenter products, including CPUs and CPU+GPU Superchips.

What you will be doing:

 * Design, develop, test, and optimize software for our next-generation SoCs, in both pre-silicon and post-silicon phases of execution.
 * Analyze and identify performance bottlenecks in the SOC.
 * Using strong communication skills, analysis documents and communications to internal and/or external audiences about our technology.
 * Competitive analysis comparing uArchitecture & workload performance metrics on NVIDIA's ARM SoCs against emerging processors from other silicon vendors.
 * Develop tools and use benchmarks to analyze performance
