What you'll be doing:

• Drive end-to-end system architecture from silicon to rack level

• Lead cross-domain optimization efforts involving power delivery, thermal design, signal integrity, and mechanical constraints

• Develop innovative features at all levels (silicon/system) to help improve GPU performance

• Collaborate with vendors and suppliers for interconnect(electrical/optical),power delivery, and memory solutions

• Provide expertise and support to validation teams with planning and execution

• Work with customers on an as-needed basis to help deliver products

What we need to see:

• 15+ years of experience in a rigorous technical hardware role interfacing with systems (HW system architecture, PCB design, mixed signal design, hardware validation, system verification, signal integrity, etc)

• Master's degree (or equivalent experience) in Electrical Engineering or related field

• Deeply inquisitive and able to use core technical competencies to provide direction on system architecture

• Ability to see big picture tradeoffs for product success

• Motivation and ability to manage concurrent projects and priorities with tight deadlines in a multifaceted environment

• Excellent communication skills required to work well with multi-functional teams (software, firmware, marketing, mixed signal, etc.)

• Previous experience with L10/L11

• Deep understanding of system level (L11) power architecture tradeoffs

• Knowledge and experience with modern optical communications (pluggables, CPO)

• Strong signal/power integrity background with hands on lab experience (Oscilloscope, TDR, VNA)

Ways to Stand Out from the crowd:

• Experience with applied ML frameworks, successful applications of AI/ML to hardware problems

• Understanding of electrical vs mechanical tradeoffs

• Proficiency with CAD simulation tools

• Ability to think outside the box!
