SoC Architect for AR Wearables & AI Chips

Meta; Sunnyvale (CA); Hybrid; USD 200,000 - 260,000; Full time

Job summary

Meta’s Reality Labs Silicon in Sunnyvale is seeking an experienced SoC Architect to shape the architecture of AR/AI wearable chips. You will define compute subsystems, memory hierarchy, interconnects, and power delivery while leading exploration across CPUs, GPUs, vision, audio, and ML accelerators.

Collaborate with algorithms, firmware, and software teams to drive hardware-software co-design decisions and evaluate IP blocks with internal teams for optimal integration.

Responsibilities

• Define and drive SoC-level architecture for AR or AI wearable chips, including compute subsystems, memory hierarchy, interconnect topology, and power delivery strategies
• Lead architectural exploration and trade-off analysis across heterogeneous compute blocks, including CPU, GPU, vision, audio, and ML accelerators
• Collaborate with algorithms, firmware, and software teams to drive hardware-software co-design decisions
• Partner with IP vendors, power and performance architects, IP architects, and internal design teams to evaluate and integrate third-party and custom IP blocks into the SoC architecture
• Develop architectural specifications, interface definitions, and design guidelines that guide RTL implementation and physical design teams
• Provide architectural leadership and technical direction to other engineers across silicon, systems, and platform teams working on wearable device programs
