We're now looking for a Senior Digital Design Verification Engineer! NVIDIA has continuously reinvented itself over two decades. Our invention of the GPU in 1999 sparked the growth of the PC gaming market, redefined modern computer graphics, and revolutionized parallel computing. More recently, GPU deep learning ignited modern AI — the next era of computing. NVIDIA is a “learning machine” that constantly evolves by adapting to new opportunities that are hard to solve, that only we can tackle, and that matter to the world. This is our life’s work, to amplify human imagination and intelligence. Make the choice to join our diverse team today!

As a Senior Digital Design Verification Engineer at NVIDIA, you'll verify the design and implementation of our cutting edge SerDes IPs.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Expertise in bus or interconnect protocols (e.g. PCI Express, USB, SATA) a huge plus.

  • Experience in verifying complex SerDes system, understanding mixed-signal designs, and have experience in modeling of analog circuits a huge plus.

  • Perl, Python, C/C++ programming language experience.

  • Good debugging and analytical skills.

  • Good interpersonal skills & dream to work as a phenomenal teammate.

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and other objective job-related factors. The expected base salary ranges for this position are:
