ASIC Verification Engineer

About the Role

NVIDIA is seeking an ASIC Verification Engineer to contribute to design verification activities supporting the pre-silicon process and ensuring proper hardware functionality. This role involves simulating RTL under various conditions to identify design bugs early in the process.

Key Responsibilities

• Employ cutting-edge AI technologies to create automated systems and flows.
• Contribute to complex UVM testbench environments, including test development, automation, or analysis.
• Develop directed or random tests in SystemVerilog to verify reference C++ and RTL models in a simulation environment.
• Debug RTL simulation failures.

Requirements & Tech Stack

• Pursuing or recently completed a BS, MS, or PhD in EE, CE, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• Coursework or prior internship exposure to computer architecture, logic design, and/or HDL languages (Verilog, VHDL).
• Strong programming experience in C++ or SystemVerilog and general understanding of OOP concepts.
• Solid understanding of basic concepts of CPU or SoC architecture.
• Exceptional analytical and problem-solving skills.

Ways to Stand Out

• Passion for object-oriented programming.
• Experience with HW/SW interactions.
• Experience with directed and random functional testing, including writing test plans and advised or random diagnostics.
• Internship or lab experience with GPU or Processor verification/validation or other hardware debug.
• Ambitious and dedicated with strong communication and interpersonal skills.
