Job description

The NVIDIA Systems Software Engineering internship offers students the opportunity to work on impactful projects within one of the industry's leading teams. Interns will engage in defining, designing, and developing software components for GPU systems, focusing on performance and power efficiency. Candidates should be strategic, ambitious, and passionate about tackling complex challenges in technology. This 12-week full-time internship is ideal for those pursuing degrees in relevant fields such as Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.

Requirements

  • Must be actively enrolled in a university pursuing a B.S., M.S., or Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
  • Anticipated graduation date must be clearly indicated on a resume or CV.
  • Prior experience or knowledge in programming skills such as C, C++, and CUDA may be required.
  • Familiarity with Operating Systems, Linux Kernel Development, and Computer Networking is preferred.

Responsibilities

  • Work on projects that have a measurable impact on NVIDIA's business.
  • Define, design, and develop integrated and discrete GPU system software components.
  • Participate in testing new and existing firmware and develop tools to improve design and verification processes.
  • Collaborate with other software, hardware, architecture, and support teams to implement graphics drivers and support new hardware features.

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.
