Description
We are seeking a Systems Software Manager to lead our Taiwan Tegra MODS team. The team develops diagnostic software that enables NVIDIA data center products to progress through hardware bring-up, validation, and production.
You will combine people management with hands-on technical leadership, helping engineers solve complex problems and deliver reliable diagnostic software. Working with architecture, hardware, firmware, and global software teams, you will shape the team’s technical direction, strengthen its capabilities, and drive consistent execution across a broad range of data center product programs.
Responsibilities
- Lead, mentor, and grow a systems software engineering team, supporting recruitment, performance management, career development, and the growth of technical leaders.
- Own planning and delivery for the Taiwan Tegra MODS team, balancing new feature development, platform enablement, software quality, and urgent program needs.
- Guide development of diagnostic tests for CPU and DC platforms, from requirements and design through implementation, validation, and maintenance.
- Provide technical direction through architecture discussions, design and code reviews, and hands-on debugging when needed.
- Partner with hardware, firmware, and architecture teams to understand new features, define diagnostic requirements, and resolve issues during platform bring-up.
- Drive complex investigations to closure, establishing clear ownership, actionable debug plans, and regression tests that prevent recurrence.
- Coordinate with global development teams to manage dependencies, share expertise, and maintain reusable software across platforms.
- Improve development practices, automated testing, and release readiness. Apply AI-assisted tools where they measurably improve productivity and quality.
- Communicate priorities, progress, technical risks, and resource needs to stakeholders, partners and customers.
- Adopt AI tools to improve team's efficiency and quality.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent experience.
- 8+ years of relevant systems software development experience, including 3+ years of engineering people management.
- Strong C/C++ programming skills and experience designing, reviewing, and debugging complex software.
- A solid foundation in operating systems, computer architecture, and low-level software development.
- Experience with device drivers, hardware interfaces, or diagnostic software in a large modular codebase.
- Demonstrated ability to lead technical execution, prioritize competing demands, and develop engineers.
- Strong problem-solving, planning, and communication skills, including collaboration across geographically distributed teams.
Nice to Have
- Experience with CPU and platform diagnostic frameworks.
- Strong knowledge of ARM-based SoCs and Linux kernel internals.
- Experience with CPU and memory subsystems, interrupts, DMA, PCIe, or other SoC interfaces.
- A track record of supporting early hardware bring-up and driving issues across hardware, firmware, and software boundaries.
- Experience improving test coverage, regression automation, and diagnostic reliability.
