ASIC Design Engineer - New College Grad 2025

Our work at NVIDIA is dedicated towards a computing model focused on visual and AI computing. For two decades, NVIDIA has pioneered visual computing, the art and science of computer graphics, with our invention of the GPU. The GPU has also shown to be spectacularly effective at solving some of the most complex problems in computer science. Today, NVIDIA’s GPU simulates human intelligence, running deep learning algorithms and acting as the brain of computers, robots and self-driving cars that can perceive and understand the world. We are looking to grow our company and teams with the smartest people in the world and there has never been a more exciting time to join our team!

NVIDIA is seeking outstanding ASIC Design Engineers to design and implement the world's leading GPU and SoC's. You will contribute to designing multiple products that will be used in a variety of applications from consumer graphics to self-driving cars and the growing field of artificial intelligence. System-ASIC team works closely with System Architecture team on product definitions, implements new innovative flows to improve our chip yield and to address multiple sectors, defines Reset and Boot Architecture and implements them in sophisticated GPU and Tegra chips. The team is also handling the architecture, design, and synthesis of multiple System-level modules.

What you’ll be doing:

• Be an integral part of the System ASIC Design team to help develop and improve our RTL and SOC designs

• Collaborate with architects, ASIC designers, and verification engineers in order to design sophisticated system-level modules such as Floorsweep, In-silicon measurement, Reset and Boot controllers.

• You will be responsible for the RTL design, logic synthesis, and timing analysis of several modules.

• Integrate modules into the overall SOC design and work closely with other teams in the silicon bring-up process and ensure successful SOC level integration.

• You will also use your expertise to identify and implement improvements in the current design flow and methodologies to improve efficiency and quality.

What we need to see:

• Completing a Bachelor's or Master's in Microelectronics, Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, or related field (or equivalent experience).

• Proven knowledge of digital design concepts and experience in ASIC design flow including RTL design, verification, logic synthesis and timing analysis.

• Strong coding skills in Perl, Python, C++, or other industry-standard scripting languages

• Basic understanding of verification methodology.

• Proven analytical and problem-solving skills.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Familiarity with ARM CPU and SoC system architecture, microprocessor, and microcontroller fundamentals (caches, buses, memory controllers, DMA, etc.)

• Experience with reset controllers, boot, fuse controllers or UCIe protocol.

• Hands-on experience in programming (C/C++) and scripting (Perl/Python).
