Senior Silicon Validation Methodology Engineer

NVIDIA Silicon Co-Design Group is seeking a versatile engineer to be part of the HW ArchDev team. The SCG team is uniquely positioned to have an end-to-end view of the product development cycle - from early arch definition through bringup to product release.

Our ArchDev arm is a hub for all silicon and system-level feature development, cost-benefit analysis, system integration solutions, and system POR alignment. As a member of this team, you will define the validation methodology, design, SW/FW, and tool requirements needed for HW validation and bring up next-gen silicon. Your work will directly benefit the quality of NVIDIA products.

What you'll be doing:

• Develop new end-to-end methodologies, processes, and workflows targeting system-level silicon stress, concurrency, and PVT coverage.

• Lead debug efforts from the HW side to root cause feature sequences bugs, silicon bugs, and sophisticated system-level issues caused by interactions between multiple HW and SW features.

• Drive SW team on system validation test development, automation and efficiency improvement.

• Bringup new flows, tests, and PVT solutions at Pre-si on N-1 or Emulation/FPGA platform.

• Apply insights from bring-up execution and post-action reviews to continually improve coverage.

What We Need to See:

• BS or MS degree in EE/CE or equivalent experience

• Effective in a collaborative environment.

• 5+ years of experience in some of the following areas:

• Developing end-to-end silicon validation and stress testing, PVT methodologies for next-generation silicon

• Deep understanding of GPU/SOC system-level architecture

• Working experience with silicon active and low power features, boot, binning, PVT sensitivity, platform component losses

• Post silicon debug and evaluate fix options against product needs.

• Effective collaboration and communication across different functional teams.

• Experience in applying AI to semiconductor co-design/validation problems and learning the domain quickly.

• Knowledgeable in using AI-assisted workflows to accelerate automation, data analysis, root cause investigation, and documentation.

With competitive salaries and a generous benefits package, NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the world’s most desirable employers in the technology field. We encourage you to join our team, which consists of some of the most hard-working people in the world working together to promote rapid growth. Are you passionate about joining an outstanding team supporting the latest in GPU and AI technology? If so, we want to hear from you.
