Senior ASIC Timing Engineer, DFT

NVIDIA has been transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years. It’s a unique legacy of innovation that’s fueled by great technology—and amazing people. Today, we’re tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing, where 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.

We’re looking for a motivated DFT‑Timing Engineer to join our dynamic and growing team. If you want to challenge yourself and be a part of something great, join us today!

• Drive timing analysis and closure for DFT logic on all NVIDIA chips (GPUs/CPUs/DPUs/LPUs/SoCs) at all hierarchical levels (block/cluster/full‑chip).
• Work with PD, DFX, Clocks and other teams to develop timing closure strategy, create timing constraints for custom DFT designs, drive timing and power convergence, and implement ECOs.
• Continuously improve workflows and designs by introducing more automation, resilience, and standardization.

• BS (or equivalent) in Electrical or Computer Engineering with 5+ years’ experience, or MS (or equivalent) with 2+ years’ experience.
• Hands‑on experience in Static Timing Analysis (STA) and driving timing convergence at full‑chip/sub‑chip level in advanced technology nodes.
• Expertise in analysis and fixing of timing paths through ECOs.
• Expertise in developing timing constraints.
• In‑depth knowledge of industry standard timing convergence tools.

• Understanding of DFT logic and experience with DFT timing closure for various modes (e.g., scan, iJTAG).
• Background in domain‑specific STA and timing convergence, such as Serdes, Processor, IO, SMVA, etc.
• Experience in methodology and/or workflow development.
