Senior Asic Engineer

NVIDIA NVIDIA · Semiconductors · Shanghai, China

Senior ASIC Engineer role focused on integrating a RISC-V based subsystem (Peregrine) into critical GPU IPs (PMU, GSP, SEC). Responsibilities include analyzing requirements, developing wrapper logic, driving SOCD integration, collaborating with physical design and software teams on system-level performance, memory access latency, and bandwidth.

What you'd actually do

  1. Analyze architectural requirements to define the Peregrine configuration for PMU, GSP, and SEC engines, including how each integrates into the GPU chip.
  2. Develop essential wrapper logic as needed to bridge the Peregrine subsystem with each engine's interfaces.
  3. Drive the SOCD effort to integrate Peregrine into GPU engines, from RTL through synthesis handoff.
  4. Collaborate with the Physical Design team on partition assignment and floorplan considerations.
  5. Work with software teams to evaluate system-level performance — particularly memory access latency and bandwidth — ensuring it meets firmware requirements.

Skills

Required

  • BS or MS in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering
  • 3+ years of relevant work experience
  • Strong communication skills
  • Solid foundation in front-end ASIC design (RTL coding, synthesis, lint/CDC)
  • Self-motivated with excellent analytical and problem-solving skills

Nice to have

  • Experience in system-level chip integration or SoC-level design
  • Familiarity with RISC-V processor subsystems or embedded firmware workflows
  • Prior exposure to multi-die / chiplet architectures
