Emulation and FPGA Engineer

Are you passionate about FPGA prototyping? Are you interested in inventing new ideas to make FPGA prototypes more efficient? Can you work on a fast paced environment needing coordination from many teams across geographies and resolving issues every day? If so, we are looking for hardworking engineers who will craft the FPGA prototypes of our next generation GPUs and SOCs on standard FPGA prototyping platforms

What you'll be doing:

You will build the prototype by making the RTL FPGA friendly, partition the design, synthesis, place and route.

Improve the performance and generate bit streams.

Bring up the design on board and indulge in problem solving.

Release the prototype to the customers and support them when they face problems.

You are expected to understand the design and implementation, define the configurations, develop/modify the infrastructure and verify the correctness of the design.

Good coordination with architects, designers, verification engineers, and SW teams will be needed to accomplish your tasks.

What we need to see:

BS / MS or equivalent experience with proven experience.

Knowledge in FPGA prototyping tools like Protocompiler, Synplify Premier, Vivado and ASIC flows. Exposure to various FPGA devices.

Knowledge in Backend flows of FPGA Prototyping - Synthesis, P&R and Timing closure.

Exposure to ASIC design and verification tools (VCS or equivalent simulation tools, debug tools like Verdi, GDB).

Expertise in Verilog, System Verilog.

Good digital design concepts.

Good debugging and problem solving skills.

Hands on with lab FPGA debug methodologies, such as Protocompiler debug, ChipScope, SignalTap or others.

Hands on experience with lab debug equipment, such as oscilloscopes and logic analyzers.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

Scripting knowledge (Perl/shell/Tcl) is desired.

Good interpersonal skills and ability & desire to work as a phenomenal teammate

Experience/Knowledge in system/SOC/Full chip level verification desirable.

Experience/Knowledge with hardware emulation or prototyping (Synopsys HAPS, Zebu, Cadence Protium, Palladium, Mentor Veloce) of a high-performance processor or SOC is a plus.

NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world's most desirable employers. We have some of the most forward-thinking and hardworking people in the world working for us. If you're creative and autonomous, we want to hear from you.
