• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills with experience using industry-standard simulation and debug tools.

Ways to Stand Out from the Crowd:

• Experience verifying high-speed coherent interconnects, NoCs, or other complex SoC infrastructure IP.
• Knowledge of coherent interconnect protocols and technologies such as CHI and AXI.
• Strong understanding of cache coherency, transaction ordering, and system-level data flows.
• Experience with performance verification, including bandwidth, latency, QoS, and traffic management.
• Strong scripting skills in Python, Perl, or Shell, along with excellent communication and collaboration skills.

With competitive salaries and a generous benefits package, NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world's most desirable employers. We welcome you join our team with some of the most hard-working people in the world working together to promote rapid growth. Are you passionate about becoming a part of a best-in-class team supporting the latest in GPU and AI technology?
