Details

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 which are hard to solve, that only we can pursue, and that matter to the world. This is our life’s work, to amplify human inventiveness and intelligence.

Responsibilities

  • You will play a major role analyzing the design and driving fixes as well as developing, maintaining, and improving our Lint, Clock Domain Crossing (CDC), Reset Domain Crossing (RDC) and Static Timing Analysis (STA) constraints and methodology for our DPUs and SOCs across block level, cluster level, and/or full chip level.
  • Responsibility for analyzing and optimizing the CDC and RDC sign-offs for DPUs and SOCs.
  • Develop and maintain key CDC/STA checks and associated sign-offs for DPUs and SOCs.
  • Help in driving frontend and backend assertions needed to support CDC/RDC/STA constraints and assumptions.

  • Great teammate.
  • BS (or equivalent experience) in Electrical or Computer Engineering.
  • Minimum 5+ years experience or MS (or equivalent experience) with 4 years experience in Synthesis and Timing.
  • Expertise in Static Timing Analysis (STA), Clock-Domain Crossing (CDC), and Reset Domain Crossing (RDC) solutions.
  • Experience in critical path planning and crafting needed solutions.
  • Power user of tools like Synopsys PrimeTime, Spyglass, VC-Static, or Meridian.
  • Solid experience in full-chip/sub-chip Static Timing Analysis (STA), timing constraints generation and management, and timing convergence.
