Job Description

NVIDIA has continuously reinvented itself over two decades. Our 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. NVIDIA is a “learning machine” that constantly evolves by adapting to new opportunities that are hard to solve, that only we can tackle, and that matter to the world. This is our life’s work, to amplify human imagination and intelligence. Make the choice to join us today!

We are looking for a Senior SRAM Circuit Design Engineer, someone who wants to join a growing and dynamic group of diverse individuals responsible for supporting NVIDIA's entire range of SOCs with the world’s best embedded memory solutions.

What you’ll be doing:

• Working within a team of transistor-level circuit and mask engineers to design and then validate custom and compiled SRAM that achieves specific power, speed, and area objectives

• Using and developing characterization and validation flows that improve both the quality and the efficiency of our design methodologies

• Participating in test chip design efforts to explore and validate new ideas and approaches

• Supporting SOC design teams in their efforts to produce world-class products from concept through volume production

• Designing in leading-edge process technologies from the world’s best foundries

What we need to see:

• MS or PhD in electrical engineering or equivalent experience

• 5+ years of transistor-level circuit design experience with a very strong preference for custom SRAM circuit design and SRAM compiler design experience

• Deep understanding of digital and SRAM circuit and layout design concepts in finFET-based CMOS technologies.

• Comfortable with Cadence custom circuit design tools, particularly Virtuoso

• Expertise running Spice to simulate transistor-level circuit behavior

• Expertise in circuit reliability issues that affect power, speed, area, and yield

• Comfortable running and debugging custom layout LVS and DRC issues with verification tools such as ICV or Calibre

• Comfortable with scripting languages such as Python or Perl, the UNIX operating system, and version control software such as Perforce

• Works effectively in a team, has highly developed social and interpersonal skills, and is passionate about their work in this field
