Senior Safety Architect, Drive Platforms - Autonomous Vehicles at Nvidia
Santa Clara, CA 95050
About the Job
NVIDIA – “the AI computing company” is developing a ground-breaking AI-based full stack for autonomous transportation and base platform to support it
This requires a ground-breaking approach to functional safety in the underlying DRIVE platform, including scheduling and management of synchronization and diverse HW compute engines, full platform error reporting and degradation, system state management and fail-operational features. Be ready to question established practices which may no longer be applicable! We are seeking outstanding engineers to lead efforts developing the next generation of safe, AI-powered autonomous driving platforms
The focus is on functional safety of the underlying compute, sensing and communications platform on which NVIDIA's autonomous products are built
Do you have a desire to work at the confluence of NVIDIA's application stack and the OEM vehicle platforms? Come and join a team developing and aligning safety architecture and requirements across NVIDIA and with all our customers! What you'll be doing: Work closely with other teams of safety engineers both at NVIDIA and our customers to derive Base Compute Platform Safety Requirements through analysis of Application Software Technical Architecture and the capabilities of the HW and SW platform. Ensure system assumptions of use and restrictions are fulfilled by supported applications Analyze and refine the safety architecture down the left side of the V-Model by establishing requirement traceability from the Application to the lower level implementation Develop technical safety concepts for subsystems such as sensing, error management, startup / shutdown, state and execution management We will look to you to work closely with OEMs and suppliers to ensure requirements are met Find opportunities for automation to improve efficiency. What we need to see: BS, MS or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent experience 5+ years (or equivalent) experience in systems architecture or related fields. Experience working across company boundaries as development partners. We seek technically strong engineers who bring experience in safety analysis of embedded systems at the Hardware and Software Level and can find the right level of abstraction adapted to the tasks in hand. Ways to stand out from the crowd:Systems engineering methodologies such as model-based approaches, requirements management, peer review processes, requirements management in an agile development environment, risk management, requirements verification and traceability, validation and verification, and architectural decomposition. SW & HW architecture of embedded computing systems and/or sensing subsystems architecture and interfacing is especially appreciated. Safety standards (ISO 26262, IEC 61508, ISO/PAS 21448) Code review and comprehension as well as experience in performing software safety analysis (e.g FMEA, Freedom from Interference and Dependent failure analysis) Good communication skills, both verbal and written, experience in the redaction of safety collateral such as safety manuals and safety reports Computation of HW metrics (PMHF, SPFM, LFM) The base salary range is 128,000 USD - 247,250 USD
Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions.You will also be eligible for equity and benefits
NVIDIA accepts applications on an ongoing basis
NVIDIA is committed to fostering a diverse work environment and proud to be an equal opportunity employer
