Circuit Design Engineer - New College Grad 2026

We are now looking for a motivated Senior Circuit Design Engineer to join our dynamic and growing team. If you are looking for a challenging and exciting role in improving the netlist and timing quality of our designs and if you are a self-starter and highly motivated individual who loves to collaborate and find solutions to hard technical problems, join us today!

Over the past two decades, NVIDIA has continuously reinvented itself, starting with the groundbreaking invention of the GPU in 1999. This innovation not only fueled the growth of the PC gaming market but also redefined modern computer graphics and revolutionized parallel computing. More recently, our advancements in artificial intelligence and deep learning have ignited the era of modern AI, marking the next chapter in computing. At NVIDIA, we are a "learning machine" that evolves by seizing new opportunities and tackling challenges that matter to the world. Our mission is to amplify human inventiveness and intelligence, making a lasting impact on the future.

What you’ll be doing:

Collaborate and work closely with cross-functional teams to improve the performance, reliability and security of Nvidia’s next generation products by performing detailed transistor-level analysis on the design.

Drive the design and physical implementation of digital and/or mixed-signal analog circuit IPs for current and voltage sensing, and common Security attacks detection and protection using custom and automated tools.

Create prototypes of patentable ideas on test chips and drive them to be deployed across the entire line of products.

Be a mentor/technical lead for junior team members.

What we need to see:

Master's or PhD in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering (or equivalent experience).

Good understanding of deep submicron process issues and digital circuit design techniques

Familiarity/experience with analog and mixed-signal block design such as op-amp, comparator, ADC etc.

Hands on experience running Spice simulations, EM/IR analysis, and static timing analysis/closure

Experience with spice simulation for noise analysis, loop stability analysis, ac/dc/transient analysis, monte-carlo, etc

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

Hands-on experience in design and analysis of digital and mixed-signal analog current and voltage sensors is a plus

Exposure to security attacks and common detection circuits.

Experience with RTL, logic synthesis and verification, knowledge of Place and Route, and understanding of Design-for-test (DFT).

Strong experience in scripting language, such as, Perl, Tcl, Make and automation methods/algorithms.

Prior leadership experience.
