As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world!

What You'll Be Doing

  • Be an integral part of the team defining, developing, and delivering system-level methodologies and RTL to measure performance on the industry's leading GPUs and SOCs
  • Define, develop, and automate flows and methodologies to efficiently build, deliver, and support a system-level IP
  • Deliver IP and support projects by applying the performance monitoring system
  • Run and debug RTL checks to ensure design quality (e.g., cross clock domains (CDC), clocks, reset, latency, and more)
  • Design and implement RTL features (microarchitecture and RTL)
  • Work with architects, designers, and software engineers to accomplish your tasks

What We Need To See

  • BS or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineer, or related degree required, advanced degrees (MS, PhD) a plus
  • 2 years of relevant industry experience and strong coding skills in Perl/Python or other industry-standard scripting languages
  • Experience in RTL design (Verilog), verification (SystemVerilog), System-On-Chip design/implementation flow, and design automation
  • Good understanding of SOC architecture, including CDC, multiple-power domains, performance analysis, latency, and data flow
  • Excellent debugging and analytical skills
  • Exposure to design and verification tools (dc_shell or equivalent synthesis tools, VCS or equivalent simulation tools, debug tools like Debussy, GDB)
  • Great communication and collaboration skills to interact within the team and with cross-functional teams

Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd

  • Hands on experience in object-oriented programming
  • Prior design on system level IP (Clocks/DFT/Resets)
  • Experience developing methodologies used by others
  • Hands- on silicon debug is a plus.
  • Exposure to physical design
