2 months ago

Santa Clara, United States Nvidia Full time

Do you enjoy hacking and tinkering at the lowest levels of software? Are you capable of leading a team of engineers designing clever firmware solutions while in heavily resource-constrained environments? Do you have a history of successfully completing projects on time with aggressive schedules? If so, you're primed to lead a team to develop the boot software that powers the world's best GPUs.

We are searching for a top-notch system software manager to fill a challenging, yet fun role on our GPU Firmware team. You will be joining a team whose primary mission is solving the intricate enigma of securing and innovating the boot process for our GPUs, while dealing with the formidable constraints of boot-time and storage space. Every. Byte. Counts. This is your chance to create waves in the industry while directly working with and alongside some of the most top-valued diverse minds in the graphics software and GPU business. Your goal will be to shape the future of graphics technologies doing exactly what you enjoy: solving puzzles. If this sounds interesting and you're up for the task, we'd certainly like to hear from you

What you'll be doing:

* You'll lead a team to develop, debug, and maintain GPU firmware throughout the NVIDIA GPU lifecycle


* Drive execution of GPU firmware for multiple consumer product lines with aggressive schedules


* Define firmware feature roadmaps to align with hardware and industry specification advancements


* Provide direction for design and implementation of creative solutions for boot software


* Collaborate with hardware, software, and business teams to transform new firmware features from idea to reality


* Work with leading OS and PC vendors to improve/innovate the startup experience


* Improve team software process and core infrastructure via projects dealing with build systems and regression farms


* Continuously evaluate and improve security for firmware that functions as a root of trust



What we need to see:

* BS or MS degree in EE/CS/CE or equivalent experience


* 10+ overall years of experience in the software industry


* 4+ years' experience in leading teams developing device BIOS, firmware, or other low-level software


* Strong C skills


* Even stronger communication skills


* Sense of humor stronger than your C skills encouraged, but not required


* Deep understanding of software process


* Easy to work with, as you'll constantly work closely with both hardware designers and other software engineers and managers to design, develop, and debug functional (and non-functional) aspects of GPU subsystems



Ways to stand out from the crowd:

* Examples of customer facing system software features that you drove to completion


* Knowledge of the PC architecture including PCI/PCIe as well as display technologies like DP and HDMI


* Experience developing for UEFI environments


* Understanding of secure development concepts such as threat models, attack trees, static/dynamic analysis, and fuzzing


* Passion for your work



We are widely considered to be one of the technology world's most desirable employers, and as a result have some of the most brilliant and talented people in the world working for us. If you're clever, creative, and driven, we'd love to have you join the team.

The base salary range is 220,000 USD - 339,250 USD. Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits. NVIDIA accepts applications on an ongoing basis.

NVIDIA is committed to fostering a diverse work environment and proud to be an equal opportunity employer. As we highly value diversity in our current and future employees, we do not discriminate (including in our hiring and promotion practices) on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status or any other characteristic protected by law.
