NVIDIA pioneers innovative tech in computer graphics, gaming, and AI, seeking Sr System SW Engineers in Pune, India.
What you'll be doing:
Design, implement, and debug changes in the NVIDIA SW stack to take next‑generation HW from design/development stage to production, with a focus on kernel‑mode SW.
Develop and optimizeCPU, GPU, and platform‑level power‑management features, including power‑state transitions, DVFS tuning, residency improvements, and system idle/active power optimization.
Own bring‑up and hardening of power‑related kernel and embedded firmware components, ensuring accurate interactions between SOC subsystems, PMU firmware, regulators, and OS‑level power frameworks.
Follow devices throughout the development lifecycle into customer desktops, notebooks, workstations, and datacenter systems — ensuringefficient performance‑per‑watt, thermal‑aware scheduling, and system resilience.
Be heavily involved in emulation, silicon bring‑up, power/perf validation, and product hardening required to build our groundbreaking products.
Collaborate globally with cross‑functional teams (HW, firmware, OS, platform power teams) to driveend‑to‑end power behavior, telemetry debugging, and optimization across the full system stack.
What we need to see:
5+ years of experience with BS or MS degree in Electrical, Electronics, Computer Science, or equivalent experience.
Familiarity with computer system architecture, microprocessor and microcontroller fundamentals (caches, buses, memory controllers, DMA, etc).
Strong Operating Systems fundamentals with kernel experience on Windows Operating Systems.
Understanding of CPU/GPU power‑state machines (C‑states, P‑states, clock/power gating), platform power controllers, DVFS, ACPI/Modern Standby, and SOC‑level low‑power modesis a strong plus.
Strong C programming background and strength withsystem‑level (SW + HW) debugging, especially power, performance, and thermal interactions.
Familiarity withplatform low‑power concepts, PMIC interfaces, VR efficiency tuning, residency analytics, idle‑power optimization, or power telemetry debugging.
