Senior Design Engineer - Memory Subsystem

Job Title

Senior Design Engineer - Memory Subsystem

Role Summary

Design and deliver micro-architecture and RTL for memory-subsystem modules used in NVIDIA GPUs and SoCs. Collaborate with architects, verification, synthesis/timing, backend, FPGA and software teams to produce verified, synthesis- and timing-clean implementations.

Work will impact GPU and SoC product lines across consumer graphics, AI, and autonomous systems.

Experience Level

Senior-level. The role requests roughly 4+ years of relevant ASIC/RTL design experience.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include ownership of feature design, implementation, and handoff through verification and silicon bring-up.

• Own micro-architecture and RTL development of design modules.
• Micro-architect features to meet performance, power, and area goals.
• Define critical features with hardware architects and translate them into RTL.
• Collaborate with verification teams to ensure correctness of implemented features.
• Work with timing, VLSI, and physical-design teams to meet timing, interface, and routability requirements.
• Prototype designs with FPGA teams and coordinate software testing.
• Participate in post-silicon verification and lab debug.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience for immediate contribution.

• 4+ years of ASIC/RTL design experience.
• Proven experience in micro-architecture and RTL development of complex designs.
• Exposure to simulation and verification tools (for example, VCS) and debug tools (for example, Debussy, GDB).
• Deep understanding of the ASIC design flow: RTL design, verification, logic synthesis, prototyping, timing analysis, floor-planning, ECO, bring-up and lab debug.
• Expertise in Verilog.

Nice-to-have:

• Design experience in memory-subsystem or network-interconnect IP.
• Scripting skills (Python, Perl, shell) and strong debugging/problem-solving ability.
• Good interpersonal and teamwork skills.

Education Requirements

BS or MS degree, or equivalent practical experience.
