Senior System Software Engineer - Tegra MODS

We are now looking for a Senior System Software Engineer to work in our Tegra system software group. The best candidates will have excellent C/C++, a thorough understanding of operating systems and kernel programming, and a good understanding of computer architecture. You will join a dynamic crew that builds and maintains software for complex heterogeneous computing systems that power automotives. If you're a creative software engineer with a real passion for developing products with new technology, we want to hear from you.

What you'll be doing:

• Develop drivers, tests, and frameworks that can most efficiently stress the SoC/system and see them through the full software development lifecycle. This can include working in user-space, kernel, firmware, or boot software of SoC.
• Participate in overall system architecture analysis and collaborate with internal software teams to define and design use cases that can push the SoC/system to hit limits of power, noise patterns, and bandwidth metrics.
• Spearhead various initiatives to improve efficiency, robustness, and user friendliness of the software we deliver for design validation, thermal and power characterization, manufacturing screening, and external customer bring-up.
• Understand and participate in the debug and root cause analysis of very complex data center module and rack-level failures. Recommend remediations and drive software architecture improvements when applicable.
• Communicate optimally with various teams throughout the company, as well as customers and partners.

What we need to see:

• BS/MS in computer science or other related fields.
• Strong C/C++ programming skills.
• 5+ years of experience.
• Familiarity with SoC architecture, and ability to work close to the hardware.
• Strong problem-solving and debugging skills.
• Excellent communication and planning skills.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Solid understanding of ARM platform and Linux kernel internals.
• Experience in pre-silicon and post-silicon bring-up planning, system validation testing, and execution of complex SoCs and platforms.
• Consistent record of learning new technologies on the job in a time-bound manner.
• Experience working in teams on large software projects as well as an understanding of the software product release lifecycle.
