Senior ASIC Hardware Design Engineer

NVIDIA is seeking best-in-class ASIC Design Engineers to design and implement the world’s leading GPUs and SoCs. This position offers the opportunity to have real impact in a dynamic, technology-focused company spanning product lines from consumer graphics to datacenter platforms, self-driving cars, and the growing field of artificial intelligence. NVIDIA is a learning machine that constantly evolves by adapting to new opportunities that are hard to pursue, that only we can take on, and that matter to the world.

As a member of the NVLink ASIC Design team, you will work with a worldwide team of architects and engineers dedicated to building high-speed chip-to-chip communication and high-performance, low-power GPU and interconnect subsystems. You will work closely with architects, design engineers, verification engineers, and physical design engineers to contribute to the design and development of next-generation NVLink protocol and GPU subsystem logic, delivering functional, performant, and physically implementable designs.

What you'll be doing:

• Engage in and support the design and development of NVIDIA’s next-generation NVLink protocol and GPU subsystem logic.

• Contribute to micro-architecture development and document specifications of GPU and interconnect sub-systems.

• Implement in RTL and debug while collaborating with the verification team to ensure that the design is functional and performant.

• Apply logic design skills to optimize and meet performance and power goals.

• Deliver a synthesis/timing clean design while collaborating with the physical design team to ensure a routable and physically implementable solution.

• Support hardware engineering activities including chip floor plan, power/clock distribution, chip assembly, timing closure, power and noise analysis, and back-end verification.

• Develop flows and tools as necessary in support of design activities.

What we need to see:

• A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent experience and 5+ years of industry experience.

• Solid practical understanding of Verilog and/or SystemVerilog.

• Relevant project experience in micro-architecture and RTL development of complex designs.

• Exposure to computer architecture and digital systems designs.

• Highly proficient in logic development, Verilog and/or SystemVerilog, with an understanding of physical implementation and VLSI.

• Strength in scripting languages such as Perl or Python.

• Strong collaboration and communication skills.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Background with low-power build methodologies.

• Experience with high-speed build methodologies.

• Proven track record of successfully implementing complex designs.

With competitive salaries and a generous benefits package, NVIDIA is widely considered one of the technology world’s most desirable employers. We employ some of the most forward-thinking and hardworking people in the world. If you are creative, autonomous, and passionate about crafting high-performance, low-power silicon, we want to hear from you!
