MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 6 years of experience working on mobile or embedded systems.
• 3 years of experience working in technical leadership focused on system architecture definition.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Experience driving system architecture definition from concept through productization for innovative consumer electronics.
• Experience profiling complex systems to identify and resolve power and performance bottlenecks, with a passion for optimizing battery life, thermals, and power delivery.
• Experience in compute acceleration and workload for one or more of the following domains: DSP offload or Machine Learning acceleration.
• Ability to work top-down, translating high-level use cases into detailed system architecture and component-level requirements.

• Partner with Product Managers and other teams to evaluate emerging product concepts and define user experiences.
• Take full ownership of the end-to-end architecture, defining compute and data flows to optimize performance and user experience.
• Apply a first-principles approach to guide key software and hardware decisions, balancing user needs against system constraints like performance, battery life, and thermals.
• Develop system-level models and methodologies to project performance and inform software decisions and next-generation hardware requirements.
• Lead architectural investigations to discover new hardware and software optimization opportunities. Create clear system architecture specifications that document end-to-end flows and explain how system components deliver specific user experiences. Collaborate with Hardware, SoC, and Software teams to track performance projections, resolve issues, and continuously improve our modeling methodologies.
