Job description

As a member of the NVLink team, you will drive feature enablement on GPU systems and develop software tools for next-generation GPUs. The role focuses on high-performance interconnects for multi-GPU systems, requiring collaboration with architecture, hardware, and firmware teams. You will also work on AI-based automation tools to enhance firmware development processes. This position is ideal for someone passionate about low-level software development and debugging.

Requirements

  • BS or MS degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in a software verification role.
  • Excellent debugging and analytical skills.
  • Experience with Python, Perl, C, or C++.
  • Familiarity with computer system architecture and microprocessor fundamentals.

Responsibilities

  • Drive platform bringup, feature enablement, and debugging on GPU systems.
  • Triage and resolve software and firmware issues uncovered in systems qualification runs.
  • Collaborate with architecture, hardware, and firmware teams on firmware design.
  • Log bugs and track issues to closure across impacted product lines.
  • Develop AI-based automation tools to improve firmware development and verification processes.

Benefits

  • 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. Optional programs can include student-loan and home-purchase support, plus family care resources and expert medical services.
