  • Exposure to design and verification tools such as VCS or equivalent simulator tools.
  • Background in building testbench environments for unit level verification.
  • Expertise in System Verilog and Verilog.
  • C++ programming language experience and Perl/Python scripting knowledge.
  • Excellent debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills.

Responsibilities

  • Verify the ASIC design, architecture, golden models, and micro-architecture of GPU and SoC units using Emulation and Prototyping platforms.
  • Understand the design, define the verification scope, and develop the verification infrastructure.
  • Verify the correctness of the RTL design.
  • Develop tools to manage and improve verification processes.
  • Collaborate with architects, designers, and software teams to accomplish 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.
