We seek a Senior Technical Program Manager to lead Design-for-Test (DFX) engineering programs for next-generation chip designs. This role sits at the intersection of silicon design, bring-up, and manufacturing test, driving product quality and scalability innovation. You will own the full program lifecycle from pre-silicon through release, ensuring flawless execution, efficiency, and predictability across cross-functional teams. Combining strong technical depth with program leadership will help accelerate tape-out cycles and optimize testability across NVIDIA's silicon programs.
Responsibilities
- Drive DFX program execution from pre-silicon through product release, ensuring timely delivery and alignment across development, verification, test, and operations.
- Develop detailed project schedules and workflows, coordinating milestones, dependencies, and scope changes.
- Partner with engineering and CAD teams to automate tracking, reporting, and data integration, improving clarity and efficiency.
- Identify and mitigate technical or schedule risks early, providing clear, data-driven updates to leadership.
- Gather lessons learned and standardize best practices to strengthen future programs.
Requirements
- BS/MS in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or equivalent experience).
- 8+ years of experience in semiconductor program management or engineering leadership.
- Strong understanding of ASIC/SoC design, verification, bring-up, and productization flows (RTL-to-release).
- Experience scripting or automating workflows (Python preferred).
- Strong communication and organizational abilities; able to flourish in fast-paced, multi-functional environments.
Ways to Stand Out
- Background in DFX, DFT, or datacenter-class silicon testability.
- Experience with EDA tool data analytics, APIs, or dashboards for program management.
- Consistent track record of implementing automation or process improvements at scale.
Compensation & Benefits
- Base salary range (Level 4): 160,000 USD - 253,000 USD.
- Base salary range (Level 5): 192,000 USD - 304,750 USD.
