NVIDIA is seeking a passionate mechanical optical engineer to join the Advanced Technology Group. This role focuses on micro-optical component design for NVIDIA's products, requiring a strong background in precision mechanical components and advanced manufacturing. The engineer will work on complex problems, providing creative solutions that contribute to product differentiation. Collaboration with multi-functional teams and vendors is essential to define optical packaging requirements and ensure product performance.

• Bachelor degree in Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, Physics or related fields or equivalent experience.
• 5+ years of mechanical design experience.
• Knowledge in micro-optic design and optical termination standards.
• Basic photonic device knowledge.
• Strong problem-solving skills.
• Background of mechanical simulation software like Ansys or Abacus.
• Working knowledge of optical simulation software like Lumerical and Zemax.

• Define mechanical-optical design rules using simulation software.
• Discuss with vendors to set DOE plans and data acquisition.
• Run optical test systems to determine product performance.
• Conduct root cause analysis and debugging of unique failures.
• Collaborate with multi-functional teams within NVIDIA to define optical packaging requirements.

• Employees at NVIDIA are often offered comprehensive, day-one benefits—including medical, dental, and vision coverage with HSA support, life and disability insurance, an Employee Assistance Program, and a 401(k) with auto-enrollment. Many roles also have generous time off and holidays, donation matching (up to $10,000), and a wide menu of extras like FSAs, commuter benefits, legal and identity-theft protection, pet insurance, and wellness discounts.
