Role We are seeking an experienced (>10 years) Hardware Platform Architect to support the development of high-performance platform boards. You will work with SoC teams, architects, and platform leads to define, influence, and align technical requirements for implementation. Your role will involve assessing design trade-offs and delivering the most optimal solutions for customers and development partners.
Key Responsibilities
Collaborate with technical leads, product managers, and SoC development teams to translate technical requirements into platform architecture specifications for embedded compute, AI, or server/infrastructure applications.
Evaluate architecture proposals and features, coordinating across silicon architects, hardware, software, and platform teams to align all parties to a common vision.
Work closely with board hardware designers to drive specifications into implementation, including schematic and PCB design, in alignment with Packaging, Signal Integrity (SI), and Power Integrity (PI) engineers.
Communicate complex technical concepts clearly and credibly to a range of audiences, from individual engineers to architects and technology leads.
Required Skills & Qualifications
Extensive technical experience and solid understanding of SoC architectures, memory interfaces, and platform design in embedded compute or related fields.
Proven experience with high-speed interface standards (e.g., PCIe Gen5/6, LPDDR5/6) and associated peripherals.
Hands‑on experience with embedded system board design, including complex LSI devices such as FPGAs, embedded firmware, and power management ICs.
Competence in using EDA tools for schematic entry and PCB layout (e.g., Cadence OrCAD CIS, Allegro PCB Suite).
Strong knowledge of PCB stack‑up definition, controlled impedance routing, and complex topologies.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to coordinate and influence across multiple teams and geographies.
Ability to drive progress in an ambiguous, evolving environment.
