Jobbeschreibung

We are now looking for a Senior Research Scientist for Circuits! Advanced circuit design is critically important in the post‑Moore’s Law age. Without the ability to scale process to increase performance and reduce power, we must rely more and more on creative architectural and underlying circuit solutions to provide continuing advancement from generation to generation.

NVIDIA Research is seeking world‑class circuit researchers to contribute to the exploration of future high‑performance, low‑power circuit technologies and development of prototype circuits. If you have a strong circuits background, desire to collaborate with elite researchers on critical problems, and a vision about how to advance the state‑of‑the‑art, the team will be a great fit for you. NVIDIA has an ambitious circuit research agenda that involves taking circuit technology to the next level. This position offers an opportunity to have a real impact in a fast‑moving technology‑focused company.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Explore circuit approaches to optimizing processor computation and interconnect performance and power
• Design and implement circuit approaches in prototype systems
• Collaborate with external researchers and a diverse set of internal product teams across research and product roles
• Transfer technology to product groups
• Publish original research and speak at conferences and events

What We Need To See

• PhD or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science/Engineering, or related field. A strong publication, patent, and research collaboration history is a huge advantage.
• 3+ years of relevant post graduate research / work experience
• Excellent knowledge and broad background of theory and practice of circuit design
• Depth in one or more areas of high‑performance circuit design (PLLs and clocking, SerDes and high‑speed signaling, photonics, SRAMs, power delivery/regulation, security circuits, and high‑speed logic)
• Track record of research excellence or significant product development
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 192,000 USD – 304,750 USD for Level 4, and 224,000 USD – 356,500 USD for Level 5.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.

Applications for this job will be accepted at least until April 11, 2026.

We are committed to fostering a diverse work environment and are an equal‑opportunity employer.
