Job description

The Verification and Validation Engineer at NVIDIA will play a crucial role in testing the ASIC build, architecture, and micro-architecture of NVIDIA CPUs, GPUs, and SoCs. This position is part of an innovative team focused on consumer graphics, self-driving cars, and artificial intelligence. The engineer will utilize advanced verification methods to ensure the quality and performance of NVIDIA's products. Collaboration with architects, designers, and verification teams is essential to guarantee seamless task completion.

Requirements

  • A Bachelor's or Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science or equivalent experience.
  • Proficiency in programming with C/C++ and scripting languages such as Perl, Python, or shell.
  • A strong background in computer architecture and memory models.
  • Exposure to building and verification tools such as VCS, emulation, FPGA, and debug tools is highly desirable.
  • Outstanding communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to thrive in a dynamic, distributed team environment.

Responsibilities

  • Understand the build and its implementation, define the verification and validation scope, develop test plans, and coordinate tasks within the CPU and GPU verification teams.
  • Build and develop test generators to verify and validate CPU and GPU interactions, memory coherency, and consistency.
  • Develop the verification infrastructure using brand new verification methodologies and tools.
  • Work closely with architects, designers, pre- and post-silicon verification and validation teams to guarantee seamless completion of tasks.

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.
