Job Summary

We're looking for a skilled Hardware Systems Architect to lead our efforts in developing a deep understanding of product features and attributes. As a key member of our Hardware Systems Architecture team, you will collaborate cross-functionally to translate and decompose product requirements into technical specifications and define sub-system architectures within the vehicle's low voltage electrical system.

Responsibilities
  • Work closely with hardware architecture, design, and software teams to factor functional and performance requirements into sub-systems, identify key metrics and trade-offs, and optimize them using data and analysis.
  • Model system-level trade-offs concerning distributed compute, network, and other resources, considering dimensions like power efficiency, end-to-end latencies, compute/memory utilization, and scalability.
  • Develop mock-ups or prototypes to study next-gen technologies, establish proofs-of-concept, test modeled assumptions, and/or serve as reference platforms for future bring-up, system integration, or system-level validation.
  • Collaborate with system performance engineers, hardware design, and software teams to create comprehensive validation plans that surface key system-level performance metrics, locate bottlenecks or chokepoints, and identify over-/under-design scenarios relative to system requirements.
Qualifications
  • Advanced degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field, and a track record of 10+ years of hands-on experience in relevant industries, including automotive, aerospace, or consumer applications.
  • Experience designing and developing embedded systems to optimize for network performance, compute, and network resource utilization, power modes, and efficiency, end-to-end latencies, and other system performance characteristics.
  • Hands-on experience with a variety of embedded hardware typical in automotive applications, including high-compute SoCs, MCUs, camera or other sensors, de-/serializers, transceivers, networking components, and/or related networking and peripheral interfaces.
  • Strong understanding of embedded computing platforms, and the methods for quantifying performance of their processors, including CPU, GPU, NPU, DSP, ISP, etc, as well as memory systems, networking, and peripheral interfaces.
  • Conversant with high-speed automotive interfaces and networks, such as PCIe, GMSL, Ethernet, A2B, 10Base-T1S, CAN-FD, and how to characterize their utilization and performance.
  • Grasp the power-related aspects of distributed embedded architectures, including efficient utilization of low-power states, wake propagation, and sequencing.
  • Experience with camera sensors, and downstream processing pipelines, including ISPs, DSPs, GPUs, and how to characterize key performance metrics, and resource allocation.
  • Some familiarity with automotive audio technologies, including SDR, DSPs, i2s, and a2b interfaces, amplifiers, mics, and related peripherals.
  • Conversant with wireless technologies like GNSS, BLE, LTE, 5G, Wi-Fi, and/or UWB, and their performance evaluation at the protocol and systems integration levels.
