Principal SoC Architect, Robotics and Automotive

What you'll do

• Define and drive the hardware architecture from early concept through bring-up and ecosystem enablement.
• Co-design hardware feature sets for low-latency robotics spatial computing, sensor fusion, and autonomous driving pipelines.
• Perform rigorous performance, power, and area modeling for thermally constrained robotic enclosures and automotive ECUs.
• Author high-quality architecture specifications and develop models to validate architectural choices.
• Define validation plans to ensure hardware meets strict real-time execution and safety metrics.
• Participate in silicon debug, performance tuning, and the generation of user documentation for customers.

What we're looking for

• 15+ years of deep architecture design experience in high-performance silicon.
• Master’s or PhD degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent experience.
• Meaningful industry expertise in top-level SoC definition.
• Practical knowledge of high-speed interfaces including PCIe, GMSL/Camera interfaces, and Time-Sensitive Networking/TSN.
• Expertise in multimedia/vision accelerator pipelines, CPU/GPU cache coherency, Virtualization, and Hardware Security.
• Deep understanding of hardware support for RTOS, deterministic latency, and mixed-criticality workloads.
• Exceptional ability to communicate and solve technical hurdles across all abstraction levels from micro-architecture to software.
• Experience in functional safety and mapping complex Edge AI workloads onto custom hardware (preferred); advanced programming in SystemC, C++, or Python (preferred).
