NVIDIA’s invention of the GPU in 1999 fueled 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 — with the GPU acting as the brain of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can perceive and understand the world. Today, we are increasingly known as “the AI computing company.” We're looking to grow our company, and form teams with the smartest people in the world. Are you ready to change the next generation of computing? Join us at the forefront of technological advancement.
What you'll be doing:
- Design and implement Microcontroller Firmware for GPU Server platforms, focusing on but not limited to ARM M-class microcontrollers.
- Develop C/C++ server manageability features in an RTOS embedded-optimized environment.
- Perform hands-on work with microcontroller firmware bring-up, debugging, performance analysis, and coding manageability features for NVIDIA’s Server platforms.
- Implement register-based communication and DMTF standard messaging protocols for seamless interaction between BMC, GPUs, switches, memory, I/O expanders, sensors, and local microcontroller peripherals.
- Design a highly portable microcontroller framework that will be implemented across a wide variety of server management subsystems. Develop and review code, write and review design documents, and collaborate with team members to meet product requirements.
- Instrument code for maximum coverage, automate unit tests, maintain detailed test case reports, and provide software quality reports based on static analysis, code coverage, and microcontroller load.
- Collaborate with security and hardware teams to ensure code aligns with security goals and influence hardware design and architecture review.
- Actively engage with NVIDIA partners and ODMs, proactively enable smooth factory flows for firmware releases, and provide customer support with a strong customer-first focus.
What we need to see:
- Bachelors or higher in electrical engineering, computer science, or computer engineering (or equivalent experience).
- 3+ years of experience in low level microcontroller Firmware development on embedded microcontrollers using Zephyr or FreeRTOS
- Experience working with HW peripherals like I2C, I3C, SPI, USB, etc. will be a plus
- Have firmware design, development, analysis or equivalent experiences.
- Experience in building and implementing MCU software. Familiarity with DMTF PLDM, MCTP, SPDM standards is a plus.
- Background in embedded software development in Linux environment. Background with FreeRTOS/Zephyr.
- Background with SBIOS and BMC firmware is a plus.
- Strong programming skills in, C/C++, algorithms, and data structures.
- Deep understanding of computer architecture, operating system fundamentals.
- A strong teammate; self-motivated with a positive attitude with a motivation to learn, grow and build.
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
- A successful candidate should be able to work independently and highly self-motivated. He or she should drive issues with little or no supervision.
- A key success for this position is not only a thorough understanding of system architecture, security and software, but also solid grasp of system design, use case requirements and software stacks.
- Excellent communication skills, flexibility in task assignments and working under pressures are also indispensable for this candidate.
