As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.

We are seeking an innovative Timing Methodology Engineer to help drive multi-physics sign-off strategies for the world's leading GPUs and So Cs. This position is a broad opportunity to optimize performance, yield, and reliability through increasingly comprehensive modeling, informative analysis, and automation. This work will influence the entire next generation computing landscape through critical contributions across NVIDIA's many product lines ranging from consumer graphics to self-driving cars and the growing domain of artificial intelligence! We have crafted a team of highly motivated people whose mission is to push the frontiers of what is possible today and define the platform for the future of computing. If you are fascinated by the immense scale of precision, craftsmanship, and artistry required to make billions of transistors function on every die at technology nodes as deep as 5 nm and beyond, this is an ideal role.

What you'll be doing:

• Improve and validate flows for Prime-Time, Prime-Shield and Tempus STA QOR metrics for sign-off flow, and tool for high-speed designs, with focus on CAD and automation.

• Develop custom flows for validating QOR of ETM models, both of std cells and custom IPs.

• Develop flows/recommendations on STA sign-off to model deep submicron physical effects aging, self-heating, thermal impact, IR drop etc.

• Collaborate with technology leads, VLSI physical design, and timing engineers to define and deploy the most sophisticated strategies of signing off timing in design for world-class silicon performance.

• Develop tools, and methodologies to improve design performance, predictability, and silicon reliability beyond what industry standard tools can offer.

• Work on various aspects of STA flow, constraints, timing, and power optimization.

What we need to see:

• MS or PhD in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or equivalent experience).

• 5 years of industry experience in developing and supporting STA flow

• Good problem-solving skills

• Excellent programming skills in Python, TCL, PERL

• Disciplined coder who understands the importance of having automated regression tests

• Solid Knowledge in CMOS design, clocking, and timing of synchronous circuits

• Good understanding of mathematics/physics fundamentals of circuit design

• Clocking specs: Jitter, IR drop, crosstalk, spice analysis.
