Nvidia Senior Circuit Design Engineer 

United States, California 

396906356

• Participate in cutting edge Processor design in deep submicron technologies.

• Work as part of a global circuits team to design innovative circuits (digital, semi-custom and mixed-signal analog) for silicon correlation and hardware security.

• Collaborate and work closely with cross-functional teams to improve the performance, reliability and security of Nvidia’s next generation products by performing detailed transistor-level analysis on the design.

• Drive the design and physical implementation of digital and/or mixed-signal analog circuit IPs for current and voltage sensing, and common Security attacks detection and protection using custom and automated tools.

• Create prototypes of patentable ideas on test chips and drive them to be deployed across the entire line of products.

• Be a mentor/technical lead for junior team members.

What we need to see:

• BSEE (or equivalent experience)/MS preferred in Electrical or Computer Engineering with 8+ years of circuit design experience

• Good understanding of deep submicron process issues and digital circuit design techniques

• Familiarity/experiencewith analog and mixed-signal block design such as op-amp, comparator, ADC etc.

• Hands on experience running Spice simulations, EM/IR analysis, and static timing analysis/closure

• Experience with spice simulation for noise analysis, loop stability analysis, ac/dc/transient analysis, monte-carlo, etc

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Hands on experience in design and analysis of digital and mixed-signal analog current and voltage sensors is a plus

• Exposure to security attacks and common detection circuits is a plus

• Experience with RTL, logic synthesis and verification, knowledge of Place and Route, and understanding of Design-for-test (DFT) is a plus.

• Proficiency in scripting language, such as, Perl, Tcl, Make and automation methods/algorithms is a plus.

• Prior leadership experience is a plus.
