GPU ASIC DESIGN / VERIFICATION TEAM
Today NVIDIA’s GPUs simulate human intelligence, running deep learning algorithms and acting
as the brain of super computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can perceive and understand
the world. We are seeking a passionate, innovative, and highly motivated senior veri cation
engineer to join us in the development of the next generation of PCI Express controllers used in
NVIDIA's GPUs and SOCs.
In this position, you will be responsible for veri cation of the ASIC design, architecture and
microarchitecture using advanced veri cation methodologies. You are expected to understand
the design and implementation, de ne the veri cation scope, develop the veri cation
infrastructure, and verify the correctness of the design. You will be working with architects,
designers, pre and post silicon veri cation teams to accomplish your tasks.
What you’ll be doing:
• Develop test plans, tests, and veri cation infrastructure for PCIE at IP/sub system/SOC level
• Create veri cation environment using UVM methodology
• Create reusable bus functional models, monitors, checkers, and scoreboards
• Drive functional coverage driven veri cation closure
• Work with architects, designers, and post silicon teams
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
• Good knowledge of PCIE protocol Gen 3 and above
• Good debugging and problem-solving skills
• Good communication skills
• Ability/ desire to work as a team player
TEGRA SOC DESIGN & VERIFICATION
As a Hardware Engineer at NVIDIA, you will design and implement the industry's leading Graphics,
Video and Mobile Communications Processors. Speci c areas include 2D and 3D graphics, mpeg,
video, audio, network protocols, high-speed IO interfaces and bus protocols, and memory
subsystem design. You will be responsible for Architecture and microarchitecture design of the
ASICs, RTL design and synthesis, Logic and Timing veri cation using leading edge CAD tools and
Semiconductor process technologies.
Areas you will be working on:
• ASIC, RTL, Design and Veri cation of Processors
• Low Power veri cation
• Power Estimation and Modelling
• PCIe Design veri cation
• Functional / Formal veri cation
CPU VERIFICATION TEAM
As a design and veri cation/validation engineer in the ARM CPU team, you will be working on the
next generation of 64bit ARM CPUs and SOCs. As part of this assignment, you will get a chance
to learn about computer architecture at a very granular level, System Verilog, Design Veri cation,
SOC Veri cation, Veri cation methodologies and C/C++ programming. You also will get an
opportunity to get familiar with industry standard tools in veri cation and validation.
During the internship, you will contribute to building test benches, developing architectural
simulators, modifying random instruction generators, and creating stimulus for veri cation and
validation of di erent units of the CPU and SOC.
Areas you will be working on:
• Computer Architecture
• Digital Design and Programming in C/C++/Perl
• ARM, CPU Design and Veri cation/ Validation
VLSI TEAM
VLSI team works in the areas of RTL Design, Veri cation, Design for Test, CAD tools, Synthesis,
Timing, Place & Route, Circuit Design, Silicon Bring-up and Characterization. Responsible for
state-of-the-art methodologies, tools, ows and project execution on all Nvidia GPU, CPU, Auto,
and Switch chips. As an intern you will be working on one or more such areas.
Skills you will use/develop:
• RTL Design, VCS, SV, UVM, Formal
• Verilog, C/C++, Python, TCL, Perl
• Logic Scan Test, Memory Test, High-speed IO Test, In-System Test
