NVIDIA has continuously reinvented itself over two decades. Our invention of the GPU in 1999 sparked 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 resolve, that only we can seek, and that matter to the world. This is our life’s work, to amplify human inventiveness and intelligence. Make the choice to join us today.

We are now looking for a Senior Mixed Signal Design Engineer. As a member of our Mixed Signal team, you are responsible for architecture definition and design of CMOS high-speed interface circuits and mixed-signal circuits. Strong hands-on experience in the lab with silicon validation, debugging, characterization and bring up is desired.

What you’ll be doing:

  • You will be part of the design and implementation of high speed interface circuits
  • Have the chance to create projects including high speed transceivers and high frequency PLLs
  • Become involved in the design, simulation, and verification of mixed-signal circuits
  • Lead mask designers, provide mentorship for floorplan and layout design
  • Provide support to the lab characterization of silicon, and pursue the challenges of circuit design in deep submicron CMOS
  • You will take designs through implementation and productizing; Collaborate with multi-functional teams

What we need to see:

  • BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, PhD preferred. (or equivalent experience)
  • 5+ years of design experience in CMOS analog / mixed-signal circuit
  • Working knowledge of Cadence custom design tools, circuit simulator, timing analysis tool
  • Someone who's an exceptional teammate with good interpersonal skills. Validated experience in leading and mentoring designers
  • Your extensive design experience in Data Converters, Tx, Rx, CDR, PLL for high speed IO interfaces. In-depth understanding of deep submicron CMOS process and related circuit design issues
  • Proven experience in silicon bring-up, debugging and use of lab instrumentation is required. Knowledge in system level timing budget, signal integrity, and power integrity is a plus
  • Experience in Verilog, Matlab, Nanotime is helpful

NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers. We have some of the most brilliant and talented people in the world working for us. If you're creative and autonomous, we want to hear from you.

Adapt your resume

  • List these exact terms on your resume: Mixed Signal Design, Silicon Validation, Circuit Design, Analog, and Cadence. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
  • Attach one line of real, concrete experience to at least one of them. A tool named with nothing behind it rarely survives a human read.
