Senior Systems Software Engineer - Autonomous Vehicles
Job description
Our ADAS Platform team is responsible for building a scalable and modular software stack that powers advanced driver-assistance systems across a diverse range of product lines and OEMs. We are looking for a highly motivated Senior Software Systems Engineer with a strong foundation in software architecture. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on working across multiple layers of the software stack to drive modularization, improve abstraction, and enable extensibility and reuse. You will play a key role in evolving the platform to support efficient integration and scalability in a complex multi-OEM environment.
Job responsibilities
- Driving architectural improvements that simplify and modularize the software stack.
- Designing clean boundaries between NVIDIA core components and OEM-specific implementations.
- Refactoring ADAS components to support reuse, extensibility, and long-term maintainability.
- Improving system-level scalability through IPC, middleware, and platform abstraction layers.
- Partnering with teams across software, systems, and hardware to define clear interfaces and improve integration velocity.
- Establishing test coverage, design reviews, and architectural documentation that scales with the platform.
- Profiling and tuning system performance — optimizing for modern multi-core and real-time environments.
