System Architect - Sensors / SoC
We are currently partnered with a global leader in semiconductor solutions, driving the next generation of system-on-chip (SoC) products for smartphones, IoT, wearables, automotive, and other emerging markets. The team is expanding and is looking for a Staff-Level Systems Architect to define, prototype, and optimize SoC architectures that deliver best-in-class performance, power efficiency, and support for advanced workloads such as machine learning, AR/VR, and multimedia processing.
This is a permanent position based onsite in Cork, Ireland.
Key Responsibilities for this Systems Architect position:
* Architect next-generation SoC solutions for mobile, IoT, automotive, and wearable devices, focusing on performance, power efficiency, and emerging workloads.
* Conduct hands-on workload analysis, algorithm optimization, and performance/power characterization to guide architectural decisions.
* Collaborate with hardware and software teams to define multimedia, compute, memory, and communication subsystem architectures.
* Deploy simulators, profilers, and hardware to provide quantitative justification for architectural directions.
* Apply expertise in CPU, GPU, DSP, cache coherency, virtual memory, and SoC design to solve complex system challenges.
* Communicate experimental results and architectural recommendations to technical leads and peers.
* Innovate and file patents for novel technical solutions.
* Contribute to a collaborative, cross-disciplinary team environment, driving forward-thinking system design methodologies.
Key Requirements:
* Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field; Master's or PhD highly desirable.
* 7+ years of systems engineering or related work experience.
* Strong SoC architecture background with hands-on system design experience across embedded software and hardware.
* Expertise in SoC/computer architecture, digital hardware design, verification/test, and embedded systems.
* Knowledge of multimedia systems, power management, graphics/GPU architecture, and ARM CPU/DSP optimization.
* Experience with Linux/Android environments, serial bus protocols, system modeling (SystemC/C++), and scripting languages (Perl, Python).
