Senior Post Silicon HSIO Bringup Lead Full Time NEW

Today, we’re tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.

We seek hardworking, motivated, and imaginative individuals to join our High Speed IO (HSIO) post silicon validation team. As the lead engineer, you will own post-silicon validation and support new hardware bring-up. This role offers firsthand experience in developing and productizing reliable HSIO interfaces for GPU accelerated computing platforms, next generation client and automotive systems.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Own HSIO (PCIe, CXL, and NVLink) validation on FPGA/Emulator and Silicon, including test plan development, board building for validation requirements, resource planning, automation, test execution, coverage metrics, bug resolution, and release to production.
• Coordinate with internal and external logic, circuit, boards, simulation, diagnostics, firmware, driver, and marketing teams across different time zones. Ensure our products are tested against and meet specifications, are tuned for efficient workload performance. Drive the system into production.
• Participate in reviewing board schematics, PCB layouts, and making build and component suggestions. Ensure interoperability with connected devices and system components in sophisticated interconnect topologies.
• Provide engineering support during manufacturing in both NPI and MP stages of production.
• Influence pre-silicon development and verification methodologies, workflows based on issues observed and debugged on silicon to achieve outstanding HSIO products.

What We Need To See

• BS or B.Tech or MS or M.Tech in EE, ECE, CS, or equivalent degree with 7+ years or more experience in HSIO validation.
• Comprehensive understanding of the HSIO protocols (including PCI Express, Infiniband, Ethernet), its specifications, and its operation at a system level.
• Strong knowledge of lab instruments (DSOs, BERT, Protocol/Logic analyzers) and hands-on experience in Post-Si bring-up, functional validation, troubleshooting, and tuning of HSIO interfaces. Proficient with logic and protocol analyzers, along with protocol exercisers.
• Outstanding verbal and written communication skills. Proficient in collaborating across geographically distributed teams and suppliers to deliver quality products on tight schedules.
• Hands-on experience of developing workflows and coding in scripting languages like Python would be helpful.

Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd

• Proven leadership experience in PCI Express physical layer and debugging LTSSM failures; familiarity with data link layer, transaction layer and CXL.
• Extensive knowledge of characterization techniques in post-silicon settings. Excellent knowledge of signal integrity concepts, silicon characteristics, and high-speed/SERDES functional validation.
• Familiarity with x86/Arm server architectures and latest accelerated computing server architecture is required. Experience with datacenter products including system management, security, networking, and storage would be a plus.
• Working exposure on working with AI tools (like Claude or Cursor) would be highly desirable
