Developing environments for testing GPU and SoC features, collaborating across teams, and participating in the chip development lifecycle.
Summary Generated by Built In

The NVIDIA Infrastructure Group is seeking world-class programmers to design, implement, and debug the next generation of large-scale, general-purpose graphics and computing chips. In this role, you will help build the core verification infrastructure that drives the development of our GPU and Tegra chips.

This strongly object-oriented C++ and Python infrastructure encompasses several extensive applications that allow us to efficiently verify the world's largest chips with a sophisticated distributed computing execution and triage environment. Come and join our diverse, international, fast-paced team with high production-quality standards.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Developing environments to program and test next-generation GPU and SoC features well before they are integrated into products or supported by driver software. Every day brings new and meaningful challenges.

  • Collaborating with colleagues across architecture, hardware, and software teams to unlock the functionality and performance of next-generation NVIDIA chips.

  • Participating in the full chip development lifecycle—from architectural specification through release to production.

What We Need to See:

  • BS or MS (or equivalent experience) in CS, CE, EE, or a related field.

  • 5+ working year experience and strong proficiency in C++ programming.

  • Familiarity with compute architecture, OS design, or driver development.

  • Python programming experience (a plus).

  • Excellent communication skills.
