Senior Mixed Signal Design Engineer

NVIDIA NVIDIA · Semiconductors · Santa Clara, CA

Senior Mixed Signal Design Engineer at NVIDIA focused on developing and implementing high-speed interfaces and analog circuits for next-generation NVLINK technology, impacting product lines from consumer graphics to self-driving cars and AI. Requires a Master's degree or equivalent experience with at least 5 years of analog design experience in deep sub-micron CMOS, including FINFET processes, and proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools for design and verification.

What you'd actually do

  1. Develop and implement high speed interfaces and analog circuits. You will have hands on experience taking innovative integrated circuit designs at data rates of 25Gbps and higher from concept through silicon characterization.
  2. Help by defining circuit requirements and complete design from schematic, layout, and verification to characterization.
  3. Conduct schematic design of deep-submicron CMOS technologies using Spectre, Hspice or like.
  4. Take ownership for the architecture, transistor design and verification using industry standard EDA tools such as Cadence virtuoso.
  5. Optimize circuit to meet the specifications for system performance.
