JOB DESCRIPTION:
*Position could require work in the lab using hazardous chemicals (e.g., glue, machinery)
Principal Duties and Responsibilities: • Owns a sub-system and independently identifies issues or patterns of issues related to systems-level software and hardware design and the implications for work within and across teams; shares a use-case scenario and targets for the market; makes overall recommendations for new technologies and to address ambiguous issues, design architectures, generate solutions, and develop models, code, and/or simulations. • Supports design reviews for platform development; leads evaluation of system performance based on constraints and/or capabilities of design; works with multiple groups outside domain to support design integrity. • Provides leadership and mentorship for a cross-functional team to design products and solutions and drives their implementation, meeting internal and/or external customer requirements and standards. • Architects test environment to verify code or design for the sub-system; leads others to evaluate the impact of results, problem solve solutions, and validate software and hardware against specifications; advises multiple teams of engineers; reviews test plans; creatively analyzes the data to draw conclusions and determine what additional data should be collected; interprets results and provides feedback to cross-functional teams. • Applies and teaches others on analyses and using appropriate tools; identifies issues and/or patterns of issues and implications for the work; makes recommendations to address issues. • Independently identifies issues or patterns of issues in code and provides the implications and recommendations to improve performance; helps lead others to run algorithms and add a new feature to existing algorithms; implements new algorithms using software; improves outcomes by drawing connections between new and existing algorithms; drives the software architecture framework. • Coordinates team within a specific domain and oversees the engineering and management of complex or novel machine learning data. • Develops novel machine learning solutions aligned with proposals or roadmaps for complex products; advises and supervises small groups of less experienced engineers working together on common tasks. • Oversees and provides technical expertise to others conducting experiments within a domain to train and evaluate machine learning solutions. • Evaluates topologies against performance, and cost variables and uses the feasibility findings to review the high-level design; provides recommendations for route/topology that should be used to maximize performance, quality, and costs while reducing risks to the schedule and implementation. • Displays deep knowledge in multiple areas; acquires advanced knowledge of industry trends, competitors' products, and advances in various engineering fields related to multimedia systems products and technology; reads technical articles and publications; shares knowledge and seeks best practices from open-source community; shares knowledge of multiple areas within their team and across teams working on similar products. • Stays abreast of current and future trends to make suggestions in strategic discussions within and/or across domains about the product/technology roadmap. • Leads technical conversations; identifies technical issues that affect project or other areas of overall system and complex synthesizes issues into an appropriate document for discussion with senior-level audience (e.g., project lead, other team leads); participates in patent application reviews.
