What you will be doing:

  • As a Silicon Circuit Characterization engineer for NVIDIA's family of chips and products, you will participate in silicon bringup & post-silicon characterization of new silicon to optimize performance, power, yield, and quality to define the world’s fastest products.

  • Build methodologies to characterize Analog, digital and Mixed Signal circuits, silicon features, correlate silicon behavior withsimulations.

  • Design tools to improve execution efficiency to facilitate the ability to work simultaneously on multiple products.

  • Find creative solutions to complex silicon and system level problems and be on the frontline to lead show-stopper bugs, in order to enable product shipment.

  • Work closely with other engineering teams to determine coverage needs and constraints.

  • Drive design improvements for future product based on what is found in the lab.

What we need to see:

  • BS or MS degree in EE/CE or equivalent experience.

  • 5+ years of relevant experience in silicon bring-up and post silicon validation activities.

  • Excellent problem solving, collaborative, and interpersonal skills. Experience working with offshore teams preferred.
