Job description
The Senior Manufacturing & System Co-Design Workflow Engineer will lead the methodology and infrastructure that ensures alignment across NVIDIA's silicon products from specification to shipment. This role is part of the System-Manufacturing Architecture (SMAC) team, which coordinates between system specifications and manufacturing test specifications. The engineer will develop production-grade Python pipelines and automated checks to catch specification drift early. This position requires a deep understanding of the specification ecosystem and a proven track record of cross-organizational influence.
Requirements
- A BS, MS, or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or Systems Engineering.
- 8+ years of experience in system software, silicon bring-up, or productization engineering.
- Strong Python and systems skills with experience in shipping production services and data pipelines.
- Deep understanding of the specification ecosystem, including system POR, guard-bands, and manufacturing screen specs.
- A proven track record of cross-organizational influence and the ability to read silicon and productization outputs.
Responsibilities
- Define manufacturing specification types and own the methodology for structuring, versioning, and validating specifications.
- Develop production-grade Python pipelines and automated checks to catch specification drift before silicon exposure.
- Integrate SMAC work into the end-to-end program spine, defining explicit TPM-driven attestation.
- Drive adoption of SMAC methodology and tooling across Post Silicon, Operations, and DFX teams.
- Build checks and automation that confirm alignment holds long after initial implementation.
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.
