## Description

NVIDIA has been redefining accelerated computing, computer graphics, and artificial intelligence through groundbreaking technology and exceptional people. We are seeking a Senior Silicon Product Architect to define the technical strategy for next-generation products by connecting silicon capabilities, customer workloads, and system-level opportunities!

As part of Silicon CoDesign, you'll connect silicon capabilities with customer workloads, develop innovative features and system-level solutions, and guide product strategy. You'll own the Product Soul, advise engineering teams, and mentor engineers across the computing stack

What you'll be doing:

 * Product vision: Own the Product Soul, turning customer needs and workloads into clear performance, power, and efficiency goals, priorities, and tradeoffs.
 * Performance and power co-design: Architect next-generation performance and power management features and system-level solutions, partnering across teams from concept through silicon to shipping products.
 * Competitive edge: Benchmark competing architectures and prioritize investments that improve performance, power efficiency, product differentiation, and customer value.
 * Product decisions: Define operating points, configurations, and binning strategies with engineering teams; validate models against silicon data and flag gaps and risks early.
 * Team impact: Mentor engineers, lead technical reviews, and set a high standard for data analysis, technical reasoning, and clear communication.
