Senior Hardware Architect focused on Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability (RAS) for Tegra System-on-Chips.
Compensation
Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and other objective job-related factors. The expected base salary ranges for this position are: 184,000 USD – 287,500 USD for Level 4; and 224,000 USD – 356,500 USD for Level 5.
Responsibilities
- Define and drive SoC-level RAS hardware architecture across CPUs, interconnects, memory systems, IOs, safety islands, firmware interfaces, and platform-level components.
- Own RAS features from concept through architecture specification, micro-architecture alignment, RTL implementation support, design verification, silicon validation, debug, and production readiness.
- Develop architectural requirements for fault detection, correction, containment, isolation, telemetry, error reporting, recovery, graceful degradation, serviceability, and diagnostic observability.
- Work closely with design, verification, validation, firmware, software, and platform teams to ensure RAS features are implementable, verifiable, debuggable, and aligned with system-level requirements.
- Understand the broader SoC architecture and identify how RAS mechanisms interact with performance, power, reset flows, clocks, memory hierarchy, interconnect behavior, firmware-visible controls, and platform software.
Requirements
- MS or PhD degree in computer engineering, electrical engineering, or equivalent experience.
