  • At least 8+ years of relevant experience in some combination of architecture, design, and verification
  • Firsthand work experience with innovative ASIC design processes
  • C++ and scripting language (Python, Makefile) experience; SystemC modeling a plus
  • Strong debugging skills in FW/SW environments and IP model integration
  • Testplan development and execution experience
  • You've completed and shipped multiple projects and are skilled at processor and/or I/O Architecture.
  • A self-starter excited to work as part of a small dynamic team

NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers. We have some of the most forward-thinking and hardworking people in the world working for us. If you're creative, autonomous and love a challenge, we want to hear from you!
