Company Overview
NVIDIA is hiring a senior, hands-on engineer to lead technical innovation in our Design Verification (DV) automation infrastructure. This role requires a strong design/verification background combined with a proactive approach — identifying inefficiencies, proposing creative solutions, and implementing them with high ownership and impact. You will directly influence how verification is performed across NVIDIA’s next-generation Networking chips, enabling more scalable, efficient, and robust flows for complex ASICs powering the AI revolution.

What you'll be doing:
• Lead the development of advanced verification automation tools, regression flows, and debug infrastructure.
• Identify key challenges and inefficiencies in current DV methodologies and proactively propose and implement improvements.
• Work closely with DV engineers, design teams, and tool developers to ensure solutions are practical and impactful.
• Balance innovation with hands-on engagement in daily DV issues — keeping a strong connection to real-world challenges and support needs.
• Act as a technical leader within the team, driving discussions, mentoring peers, and crafting strategic directions for DV automation.





What we need to see:
• B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering (or related field).
• 5+ years of experience in Design Verification/Chip Design, with a deep understanding of simulation, testbenches, regression infrastructure, and debug.
• Proven ability to identify inefficiencies or recurring issues in DV workflows and develop automation scripts or tools to streamline processes and improve efficiency.
• Robust analytical thinking and problem-solving skills.
• Proficiency in Python and Linux.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills — comfortable working across engineering teams.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:
• Experience with contemporary DV methodologies, such as intelligent test planning or advanced debug workflows (e.g., automated log parsing, waveform analysis, or triage tooling).
• Familiarity with recent industry trends in design verification, including AI-assisted debugging, smart triage, or LLM-based tools.
• Proven ability to craft and deliver custom automation flows that scale to large regressions or complex simulation environments.
• Hands-on contribution to DV infrastructure development within CAD/DA teams or large SoC projects.
• Comfort working across teams, collecting feedback, and turning it into practical, adopted tooling.

NVIDIA has some of the most forward-thinking and hardworking people in the world working for us. Are you a creative and autonomous engineer who loves a challenge? Come join our team and help us build the future HPC and data centers.
