Job Description

Are you ready to take innovation further? At NVIDIA, we don't just follow the industry; we define the next generation of connectivity. We seek a visionary Analog/Mixed-Signal Engineer to build and implement high-speed Serdes reaching 80Gbps and beyond. If you enjoy working with deep-submicron CMOS and excel in FinFET technology's complexities and want to see your work evolve from a blank schematic to high-performance silicon, this is your opportunity. Join us and be part of a company transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing!

What you'll be doing:

Architect the Future: Take full ownership of high-speed Serdes architectures and transistor-level builds, pushing data rates to 80Gbps and higher.

  • Silicon Ownership: Drive the entire lifecycle-from initial concept and schematic entry to layout, verification, and final silicon characterization.

  • Master the Physics: Optimize complex circuits for peak system performance, balancing noise, power, and loop stability in deep-submicron nodes.

  • Collaborative Precision: Partner closely with layout engineers to provide strategic floorplanning and high-speed routing mentorship that ensures design integrity.

  • Solve the Impossible: Lead post-silicon bring-up and debugging efforts, translating real-world data into build refinements.

What we need to see:

  • MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience in the industry.

  • Minimum 5 plus years of professional Analog Build experience, with a deep portfolio in FinFET and deep-submicron CMOS processes.

  • The Toolkit: Proficiency in the Cadence Virtuoso environment and a "black belt" in simulation tools (Spectre, HSpice, FineSim, or XA).

  • Analytical Rigor: Expertise in noise analysis, Monte Carlo simulations, and complex loop stability. Rich experience in high-speed data and/or clock path design.

  • Modeling Mastery: Proven ability in the modeling, timing, and functionality of both analog and digital circuits to streamline top-level verification.

  • The X-Factor: You go beyond working in a silo. You are a collaborative teammate who communicates clearly and solves problems with a "find a way" mentality.

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 168,000 USD - 264,500 USD for Level 4, and 196,000 USD - 310,500 USD for Level 5.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.

Applications for this job will be accepted at least until June 9, 2026.
