from
320,000 USD - 488,750 USD
NVIDIA’s SoC Product Architecture team defines the platforms that power AI, graphics, and accelerated computing across data center, automotive, client, and edge products. As aSenior SoC Product Architect, Memory Ecosystem, you will drive NVIDIA’s external memory ecosystem across DRAM and non‑volatile flash, working with major memory vendors to align roadmaps, co‑innovate new technologies, and ensure our SoC portfolio delivers industry‑leading bandwidth, latency, power, and cost.
What you’ll be doing:
Partner withall major memory vendors to understand their technology and product roadmaps (e.g., DDR/LPDDR, GDDR, HBM, NAND, emerging NVM) and align them with NVIDIA’s SoC and platform roadmaps.
Steer vendor roadmaps by articulating NVIDIA’s performance, power, capacity, form‑factor, and reliability requirements, translating SoC and system needs into clear, data‑driven feedback and requests.
Innovate new DRAM solutions in collaboration with vendors, exploring novel architectures, signaling, packaging, and power‑management techniques to meet the bandwidth, latency, and power requirements of future NVIDIA SoCs and systems.
Work closely with SoC architects, memory controller designers, and board/system teams to co‑optimizeSoC + memory subsystem architecture, including channel topologies, speed grades, rank/stack configurations, and error‑management strategies.
Represent NVIDIA at regularvendor technical reviews and key technical/roadmap meetings, presenting consolidated SoC roadmap needs, performance data, and proposals, and driving clear follow‑ups and decisions.
Collaborate with sourcing, operations, substrate and PCB design, and quality teams to factor supply, cost, and reliability considerations into memory technology choices and long‑term ecosystem strategy.
What we need to see:
MS inElectrical Engineering,Computer Engineering,Physics, or related field,or equivalent experience.
18+ years of experience in DRAM / memory subsystem architecture, SoC or memory controller design, or closely related roles in semiconductor or system companies. Deep understanding ofmodern DRAM technologies (e.g., DDR, LPDDR, GDDR, HBM) andnon‑volatile memories (e.g., NAND flash, managed NAND/SSD), including key tradeoffs in bandwidth, latency, power, capacity, packaging, and reliability.
Proven experience working directly withmemory vendors on product definition, bring‑up, or co‑development, and familiarity with how large‑scale customers influence vendor roadmaps.
Solid background inSoC and system memory subsystems, including memory controllers, PHYs, signal integrity, power delivery, and how memory choices impact overall SoC and platform performance and power.
Demonstrated ability to performcompetitive analysis, including interpreting teardown data, benchmarking memory bandwidth/latency, and drawing clear architectural conclusions and recommendations.
Strong communication and presentation skills, with experience representing technical positions in vendor meetings, technical reviews, and multi-functional internal reviews.Ability to work across functions (architecture, design, systems, sourcing, operations) and regions, driving alignment and decisions without direct authority.
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
Direct experience defining or architectingHBM, GDDR, or high‑speed LPDDR solutions for GPUs, AI accelerators, or high‑performance SoCs.
Hands‑on work withadvanced packaging (e.g., 2.5D/3D, CoWoS, multi‑chip modules) involving high‑bandwidth memory interfaces.
Prior ownership of memory‑relateddriven teardowns or benchmarking programs, with clear examples of how results influenced product or technology direction.
Established relationships with major memory vendors and a history of successful roadmap or co‑development engagements.
