Job description

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 pursue, and that matter to the world. This is our life’s work, to amplify human creativity and intelligence.

We are looking for a Senior Mixed‑Signal/Analog/IO Circuit Design Engineer – someone who is excited to join a growing group of diverse individuals responsible for handling challenge high‑speed memory interface designs.

What you’ll be doing:

• Mixed‑Signal/Analog circuit build for High Speed Memory I/O Interfaces
• Solve challenge of circuit development in deep submicron CMOS FinFET processes
• Take designs through productization and be involved in all stages of development
• Work with multi‑functional teams to optimize the designs

What we need to see:

• BSEE or MSEE or equivalent experience as well as 8+ years of well‑rounded high Speed memory (LPDDR, DDR, GDDR, HBM) or SerDes related design experience.
• System level timing budgets, specs and analysis
• In-depth understanding of deep submicron CMOS FinFET process and circuit design issues
• Familiarity with device reliability, ESD and Latch‑Up requirements
• Lead layout development and understand all ESD/Latch‑Up, reliability rules
• Broad circuit design and implementation knowledge with significant depth
• Working Knowledge of package substrate, board design and power delivery is a plus.
• Strong background of Cadence custom design tools, various circuit simulators like Hspice, XA, FineSim, Spectre
• Solid understanding of Verilog, Nanotime, Matlab is plus
• Hands on with Lab test and measurement equipment is a plus
