Senior HSIO Validation Methodology Engineer

NVIDIA Silicon Solutions Group Engineer

NVIDIA Silicon Solutions Group is seeking a versatile engineer to be part of the HW ArchDev team. The SSG 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 evaluate next gen silicon and define methodology, design, SW/FW, tool requirements needed for HW validation. The work you do will directly benefit the quality of NVIDIA products.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Lead NVIDIA product GPU/CPU/SOC IP/system level validation strategy, characterization and tuning methodology, platform/component interoperability, debug capability and tools/scripts, system, SLT, and manufacturing test requirement and lead cross-function teams for development and implementation.
• Lead new feature silicon bring-up, validation, and debug, and coordinate product schedule to release feature with high quality at aggressive schedule.
• Deep dive into technically challenging High-Speed IO Pre-Si and Post-Si bugs and lead debug efforts across various teams to fix the issue on schedule and envision design optimization and collaborate with designer to implement for next generation.
• Proactively drive and identify opportunities and methods optimization and innovation for test strategies, process and workflow, validation methodology and efficiency based on project learnings and challenging.

What We Need To See:

• BS or MS degree in Electrical/Computer Engineering or equivalent experience.
• 8+ years working in HSIO development, bringup planning, HSIO SerDes, protocol, functional and electrical validation, SI/PI, and/or power optimization.
• Experience with HSIOs like PCIE/CXL/USB/UFS/MGBE etc or chip-to-chip interconnects including understanding of process/temp/voltage sensitivity on BER.
• Strong EE fundamentals, knowledgeable in digital design, computer architecture, power analysis, timing analysis, fault analysis, sampling, statistics, and scripting.
• Working experience on Pre-Si/FPGA and Post-Si validation, debug, rooting cause and fixing against product needs.
• Deep understanding of OS/firmware/driver structures and their interaction with HW.
• Hands on experience with Lab test and measurement equipment.
• Effective collaboration and communication, presentation skills across different functional teams.

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