As one of the technology industry's most desirable employers, NVIDIA is an industry leader in high-performance computing, gaming, and AI. NVIDIA's GPUs and SOCs are outstanding in performance and efficiency, and we are continually innovating in creative ways to deliver outstanding solutions in a wide range of sectors. We seek Product Definition Engineers who are passionate about what they do and committed to making a difference in the world through their inventions.

As part of the Silicon Solutions Team, we architect and deliver groundbreaking solutions for productizing NVIDIA's chips into consumer, professional, server, mobile, and automotive markets!

What you will be doing:

• As a Silicon Circuit System design engineer for NVIDIA's family of chips and products, you will evaluate and work with pre-production silicon in state-of-the-art process technologies to characterize and optimize performance, power, yield, and quality to define the world's fastest products.
• Build pre and post-silicon methodologies to productize Analog, digital, and Mixed-Signal circuits and silicon features, correlate silicon behavior with simulations, and provide design feedback.
• Driving new feature initiatives across multiple business units, converting chip and board level dI/dt analysis/mitigation techniques and board PDN design knowledge to hardware features, design requirements, silicon characterization needs, and test requirements.
• Design essential next-generation product features that are vital for performance, power optimization, and management techniques from feature definition to production, working with multi-functional teams.
• Design tools to automate product definitions, data collection, test case execution, and results analysis.
• Find creative solutions to complex silicon and system-level problems and be on the frontline to lead show-stopper bugs to enable product shipment.
• Work alongside system architects, chip and board designers, software/firmware engineers, HW/SW applications engineering, process/reliability specialists, ATE engineers, product managers, sales, and operations, in a multifaceted, high-energy work environment to bring industry-defining products to market.

• BS with 7+ years or MS with 5+ years experience (or equivalent experience) in EE, CE, CS, Systems Engineering, or similar and experience in a related hardware engineering position.
• Excellent problem-solving, collaborative, and interpersonal skills. Experience working with offshore teams preferred.
• Highly desirable are in-depth knowledge of chip-and board-level dI/dt analysis/mitigation techniques and a background in board PDN design.
• Hands-on experience with silicon bringup, frequency and power characterization, Tester System correlation, and lab tools (oscilloscopes, multimeters, DAQ).
• Exposure to product binning methods, optimization techniques, methods, trade-off analysis, and tools for data analysis and statistics.
• Exposure to critical path analysis, power analysis, process technologies, transistor/device physics, silicon reliability, and aging mechanisms.
• Familiarity with Perl, C/C++, tool and script development, Windows and Linux OS is a plus.
• Background with power supply and substrate noise analysis and mitigation.
• Exposure to digital design, circuit analysis, computer architecture, BIOS, drivers, and software applications.
