Job Description

AWS designs custom SoCs (System on Chips) that power the world's largest machine learning training and inference clusters. Our organization builds both the SoCs and the low-level software stack that brings these chips to life — drivers that expose the hardware to the OS, runtime libraries that orchestrate computation, and collective communication software that coordinates thousands of chips working together across a network. We're looking for a Systems Software Engineer who wants to work at the boundary between hardware and software in both pre-silicon and post-silicon, where the problems are hard, the debugging is deep, and the impact is enormous. Our team develops SoC models and infrastructure to enable SoC validation, accelerate system software development, and enable architectural exploration.

Job Responsibility

  • Develop and own components of our SoC models, both single-chip and at the datacenter-scale level
  • Debug complex hardware/software interactions across the full software stack — from register-level bring-up on functional models and emulators, to performance analysis on live silicon
  • Collaborate with chip architects, RTL designers, modelers, compiler engineers, and ML framework teams to co-design and validate the hardware/software interface
  • Contribute to the design of hardware features by providing a software perspective early in the chip development cycle
  • Build tooling, test infrastructure, and automation that accelerates development for yourself and your teammates

Requirements

  • 6+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
  • Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team
  • 7+ years of professional experience developing firmware, drivers, runtime software, or low-level systems software for custom hardware (SoCs, ASICs, GPUs, CPUs, FPGAs)
  • Experience programming in C++, Python, and/or Rust (preference for at least 2)
  • Knowledge of SoC, CPU, GPU, and/or ASIC architecture and micro-architecture

Nice to have

  • Experience with collective communication libraries or distributed systems primitives (MPI, NCCL, RCCL, or similar)
  • Experience debugging using functional models, QEMU, FPGA, or emulators
  • Experience with Linux kernel development, device drivers, or bare-metal firmware
  • Experience building functional or performance models of SoCs
  • Experience co-designing hardware/software interfaces with architecture or RTL teams
  • Familiarity with PCIe, DMA engines, on-chip interconnects, or network-on-chip architectures
  • Experience with performance profiling and optimization of latency-sensitive software
  • Experience with multi-threaded, multi-process, or asynchronous programming models

What we offer

  • health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, Basic Life & AD&D insurance and option for Supplemental life plans, EAP, Mental Health Support, Medical Advice Line, Flexible Spending Accounts, Adoption and Surrogacy Reimbursement coverage)
  • 401(k) matching
  • paid time off
  • parental leave
  • sign-on payments
  • restricted stock units (RSUs)
