Nvidia Senior SoC Architect – RAS Analysis Diagnostics 

United States, Texas 

301971120

We are now looking for a Senior Hardware Architect for our Tegra System-on-Chips (SoC).We are looking for an exceptional SoC architect to lead the architecture and strategy for in-field diagnostic testing to detect hardware failures in our CPUs and SoCs deployed in datacenters, and drive the development, validation and optimization of such diagnostics.
state-of-the-art processor and system architectures that are at the forefront of accelerating machine learning, autonomous vehicles, high-performance computing, and edge computing applications.We have built a team of extraordinary people stretching around the globe, whose mission is to push the frontiers of what is possible today and define the platform for the future of computing. Our SoC architects excel at pushing thestate of the art, while making the best engineering trade-offs.

be doing:

• ork with RAS Architects to develop architecture and methods to detect faultsthat developin our SOCs deployed in datacenters and autonomous vehicles.

• Work with software, design verification andsilicon validationteams to develop tests that achieve high diagnostic coverage for the design.

• Assist in Failure Analysis to debug failing parts in the field and develop screens to detect and localize failures.

• Create Hardware specifications, testplans, and architectural models in System C (where applicable).

• Planning and Executing Architectural validation plans.

• Post-Silicon production support with silicon debug and publishing of customer documentation.

• Follow Industry standards and best-practices related to RAS, debuggability and silicon testing

• Patenting novel parts of system architecture

What we need to see:

• MS or PhD degree in computer or electrical engineering or equivalent experience

• At least 8+ years of SoC architecture, design and/or verification experience

• Good understanding of Reliability, Availability, Serviceability (RAS) in the SoC context

• You have meaningful industry expertise in defining one or more of the following SoC architecture areas - RAS, Clocks, Resets, Debug, Automotive safety, Interconnects, Memory Controller, IO technologies, Platform integration.

• Hands-on design verification experience, knowledge of coverage analysis and optimization methodology.

• You are comfortable communicating and solving issues at all levels of architecture definition from micro-architecture to system level to software architecture.

• Excellent analytical, written, and verbal interpersonal skills and ability to work as part of a team.
