Job description

NVIDIA is seeking a Low Power Design/Verification ASIC Engineer for new college graduates in 2026. This role involves working closely with Low Power Architecture, Design, and Software teams to develop innovative power management solutions for NVIDIA products. The engineer will contribute to the research and development of energy-efficient GPU and SOC architectures. This position offers the opportunity to influence methodologies and improve simulation efficiencies in a dynamic and diverse environment.

Requirements

  • Recently completed a BS, MS or PhD in Electrical or Computer Engineering or equivalent experience.
  • Understanding of low power design techniques such as multi VT, clock gating, power gating, block activity power, and dynamic voltage-frequency scaling (DVFS).
  • Good understanding of processor architecture, with a preference for GPU knowledge.
  • Experience with Incisive Low-Power or Synopsys VCS NLP.
  • Strong debug skills and experience with Verdi.
  • Fluency in Verilog and SystemVerilog, with an understanding of UVM.

Responsibilities

  • Architect and develop testbench, infrastructure, and test plans to verify various power management solutions for NVIDIA products.
  • Collaborate closely with Low Power Architecture, Design, and Software teams to understand next generation features.
  • Bring creative ideas to improve power-aware DV methodologies.
  • Influence EDA vendors to enhance simulation and debug efficiencies.

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.
