Client Platform Architect

TW07 NVIDIA Singapore Development PTE. Ltd. Taiwan Branch is part of NVIDIA, a leading company in visual computing technologies.

Introduction

NVIDIA is seeking an individual SOC system architect to technically represent the product team in client PC ODM and OEM engagements. This role involves close collaboration with internal applications engineering teams and external partners across various areas. The architect will help ensure alignment on requirements, tradeoffs, and system-level decisions to deliver optimal end-to-end solutions for both NVIDIA and its partners.

Responsibilities

• Serve as a technical representative of the product team in client PC ODM and OEM engagements.
• Work closely with internal application engineers, customer engineering teams, and cross-functional collaborators to align BOM, system architecture, and product options.
• Offer informed recommendations on platform capability, cost, and roadmap considerations.
• Contribute to SOC architecture during early concept definition and system-level build.
• Collaborate with Silicon Architecture and Platform teams to develop architectural intent and guide NVIDIA and external ODM reference build direction.
• Provide senior-level technical guidance during customer and NVIDIA reference build and form-factor build execution.
• Ensure architectural intent is fully implemented by clearly aligning scope, resolving issues, and effectively handing off to Product Management and downstream teams.
• Analyze and compare OEM reference build implementations, evaluating architectural choices, differentiation strategies, and cost implications to inform platform decisions and discussions involving multiple system functions.
• Synthesize customer use cases, field feedback, and partner input into clear SOC technical requirements and feature proposals.
• Provide actionable feedback to silicon architecture, product architecture, and software teams to inform future platforms, reference builds, and supporting collateral.

Requirements

• Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or Computer Engineering, or a Bachelor’s degree with equivalent practical experience.
• 10+ years of experience in client systems or platform engineering, with hands-on contributions to SOC system-level architectural decisions.
• Deep technical expertise in client PC platform analysis and technical synthesis from the SOC Silicon development perspective.
• Experience evaluating architectural tradeoffs, system configurations, and reference builds to support cross-functional decision-making across Product, Platform, Silicon Architecture, and Software teams.
• Familiarity with analyzing data from customers and use-case scenarios, as well as industry-standard benchmarks, to guide internal data collection and technical discussions.
• Comfortable engaging directly in lab environments when necessary, assisting with the setup and examination of new use-case models and reference build behaviors.

Nice to Have

• Demonstrated initiative and technical curiosity to independently investigate requirements, validate assumptions, and connect cross-functional inputs.
