About the role

Senior System Software Engineer role at NVIDIA focusing on power, performance, and power-aware measurements for SoC and WoA devices, with automation, data analysis, and cross-team collaboration from pre- to post-silicon bring-up.

Responsibilities

  • Drive comprehensive power, performance, and Perf/Watt measurements on SoC and system platforms, with a strong emphasis on Windows on ARM (WoA) devices.
  • Characterize system behavior across different states, idle, active, and low-power states, optimizing Hours of Battery Life (HOBL) scenarios (e.g., Productivity, Web Browsing, Conferencing, Video Streaming, Modern Standby).
  • Analyze power telemetry, firmware traces, and OS metrics to identify and mitigate bottlenecks, driving flawless performance.
  • Design, build, and scale automated power measurement infrastructure, integrating Data Acquisition systems (DAQs), telemetry parsers, and ETL pipelines from the ground up.
  • Collaborate closely with hardware architecture, BIOS/FW, OS, and driver teams to enable and tune new power features (DVFS, deep C-states, idle power gating) from Pre-Silicon modeling through Post-Silicon bring-up.
  • Develop advanced visualization and detailed reports to summarize product health trends, isolate regressions, and recommend architectural or software optimizations to executive and engineering teams.

Qualifications

  • 5+ Years of experiene with Bachelor’s or Master’s degree or equivalent in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or a related field.
  • Strong grasp of foundational and advanced power management concepts: Low Power Modes, P-states, C-states, S0ix/Modern Standby, DVFS, package power limits, and thermal throttling.
  • Proven experience with power tools on Windows/Linux platforms, such as WPA, HWInfo, ETL, Xperf, and PowerCfg.
  • ISolid understanding of SoC architecture, including CPU, memory, I/O subsystems, and firmware (BIOS/UEFI/EC).
  • Proficiency in scripting languages such as Python, PowerShell, or Bash for test automation and data parsing.
  • Proven ability to analyze complex execution metrics (latency, throughput, utilization) and balance power vs. performance trade-offs.
