System Software Architect

Design and document low-level software architecture, including firmware and device drivers. Define APIs for system integration and collaborate with hardware teams for performance. Lead strategies for low-latency, high-throughput data paths. Provide technical leadership and architectural oversight to development teams, developing long-term software roadmaps and driving innovation in next-generation system software and accelerator technologies.

Must Have

• Ph.D. or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field
• Minimum of 10 years of experience in system-level software development, architecture, or technical leadership roles
• Deep understanding of computer architecture, memory hierarchies, and on-chip interconnects
• Strong programming skills in C/C++
• Experience developing Linux kernel drivers (e.g., PCIe, DMA, IOMMU)
• Hands-on experience with embedded systems and firmware in RTOS or bare-metal environments
• Excellent communication skills
• Ability to collaborate effectively across software and hardware domains

Good to Have

• Experience architecting AI hardware platforms (GPU, NPU, TPU, etc.)
• Knowledge of AI/ML frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch) and their runtime-level interactions
• Familiarity with virtualization technologies (e.g., KVM, SR-IOV) and secure boot processes
• Record of publications or patents in system software or computer architecture

Responsibilities and Opportunities

• Design and document low-level software architecture, including firmware, device drivers (user- and kernel-mode), and hardware–software interfaces
• Define APIs between firmware, drivers, and user-space libraries to ensure cohesive system integration
• Collaborate with hardware teams on HW–SW co-design to maximize performance and efficiency
• Lead strategies for achieving low-latency, high-throughput data paths across DMA, memory management, and interrupt systems
• Provide technical leadership and architectural oversight to driver and firmware development teams
• Develop long-term software roadmaps aligned with evolving hardware and AI frameworks
• Drive research and innovation in next-generation system software and accelerator technologies
