Job description

The Field Applications Engineer at NVIDIA will focus on ensuring the reliability and quality of GPU products in production environments. This role involves working closely with manufacturing, quality, and engineering teams to improve product yield and address system failures. The engineer will play a crucial role in the product lifecycle from new product introduction to high-volume manufacturing. This position is ideal for someone passionate about root cause analysis and cross-functional collaboration.

Requirements

  • BS or MS in Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or Computer Science or equivalent experience.
  • 4+ years of work-related experience in the high-tech electronics industry, particularly in manufacturing, failure analysis, validation, or hardware debug roles.
  • Strong ability to manage multiple failure investigations, escalations, and yield improvement initiatives.
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills in English.

Responsibilities

  • Support manufacturing, quality, and failure analysis teams to improve product reliability and yield.
  • Establish and nurture technical relationships with internal engineering teams and manufacturing partners.
  • Identify system failure modes and manufacturing risks to drive corrective actions.
  • Provide technical training and documentation to manufacturing and quality teams on failure modes.
  • Develop failure analysis methodologies and diagnostic tools for hardware validation.

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.
