Job description

NVIDIA is seeking an ASIC Design Engineer - New College Graduate to join the GPU Design team. This role focuses on implementing high-performance, area and power-efficient RTL for leading SoCs and GPUs. The engineer will collaborate with various teams to analyze architectural trade-offs and deliver verified designs. This position offers a unique opportunity to impact product lines in consumer graphics, self-driving cars, and artificial intelligence.

Requirements

  • Pursuing or recently completed a BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • Knowledge of micro-architecture and RTL development using Verilog.
  • Good understanding of ASIC design flow including RTL design, verification, logic synthesis, and timing analysis.
  • Exposure to digital systems and VLSI design, computer architecture, and computer arithmetic is required.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and an excellent teammate.

Responsibilities

  • Implement, document, and deliver high performance, area and power efficient RTL to achieve design targets and specifications.
  • Analyze architectural trade-offs based on features, performance requirements, and system limitations.
  • Craft micro-architecture, implement in RTL, and deliver a fully verified, synthesis/timing clean design.
  • Collaborate and coordinate with architects, other designers, and verification teams to accomplish tasks.
  • Work on a broad list of IPs such as GPU work schedulers, time distribution systems, interrupt controllers, and DMA engines.
  • Architect features to help silicon debug and support post-silicon validation activities.

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.
