Interns will collaborate with team members and external researchers to advance computing technologies. This internship provides a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience while contributing to impactful projects.

Requirements

  • Must be actively enrolled in a university pursuing a Ph.D. degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Anticipated graduation date must be clearly indicated on a resume or CV.
  • Strong background in research with publications at top conferences.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
  • Prior experience or knowledge in programming skills such as C, C++, Python, and CUDA.

Responsibilities

  • Design and implement novel ideas in GPU and CPU architectures and systems.
  • Collaborate with other team members and external researchers.
  • Transfer research to product groups to enable new products or types of products.
  • Deliver prototypes, patents, products, and/or publish original research.

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.
