NVIDIA's GPUs and SOCs are the world leaders in performance and efficiency, and we are continually innovating in creative and unique ways to improve our ability to deliver extraordinary solutions in a wide range of sectors. We are seeking system performance analysis engineers who are passionate about what they do and are committed to making a difference in the world through their inventions. As part of Silicon Co-Design Group, we are responsible for productizing NVIDIA's chips into groundbreaking consumer, professional, server, mobile, and automotive solutions.
What You'll Be Doing:
- Drive to perform large-scale benchmarks for competitive analysis and comparative analysis.
- Design tools to automate product definitions, data collection, test case execution, and results analysis. Provide detailed data analysis of functionality, performance, and latency.
- Develop methodologies to optimize HW/SW performance and power management to maximize Perf/Power and user-experience on AC and on DC power. Partner with the different architecture and design teams teams on improvement areas.
- Research new architectural features for next generation GPU, CPU and SOC to optimize performance and power features development, and transcend product goals.
- Tackle multi-variable problems via system level modeling, testing and characterization, trend analysis/projection, and model verification. Brings depth and expertise in product performance-per-watt feature development.
- Utilize AI-driven techniques to enhance performance prediction models and power management strategies.
What We Need to See:
- BS pr MS in EE/CE, 5+ years of experience with a strong focus of performance and power management on one or two of below areas that optimize power for perf-per-watt efficiency in datacenter or client systems: DVFS, power gating, clock policy, sequencing, throttling, control systems, boot/reset.
- Strong EE fundamentals on digital design, low power design, DVFS, control systems, power management techniques, timing, and architecture.
- Solid understanding of firmware/driver structures and HW/SW interaction with different IPs, including their impact on power, latency, and reliability.
- Hands-on lab experience (oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers) and silicon bringup exposure are a bonus.
- Strong problem-solving, collaboration, and communication skills.
- Leverage AI to perform advanced optimization accelerate analysis, workflows, generate and review scripts, synthesize technical documentation, and explore solution spaces faster.
- Utilize machine learning algorithms to predict power consumption and performance based on workload characteristics.
- Implement AI-driven tools for automating data collection and analysis during validation and characterization phases.
- Explore creative ways to integrate AI insights into continuous improvement of power and performance metrics.
Ways to Stand Out from the Crowd:
- Demonstrated cross-functional leadership — experience driving alignment across architecture, silicon, firmware, and software teams on complex, ambiguous problems.
- System-level intuition — the ability to reason about power and performance holistically, not just at the block level, and to translate architectural tradeoffs into clear engineering decisions.
- Experience with modeling and simulation tools for performance validation at scale and familiarity with the latest advancements in AI and their applications in power and performance optimization.
- Contributions to open-source projects or communities in low-power design methodologies.
