About the role
We are now looking for a Signal & Power Integrity Engineer! NVIDIA has continuously reinvented itself over two decades. Our invention of the GPU in 1999 sparked the growth of the PC gaming market, redefined modern computer graphics, and revolutionized parallel computing. More recently, GPU deep learning ignited modern AI — the next era of computing. NVIDIA is a "learning machine" that constantly evolves by adapting to new opportunities that are hard to solve, that only we can tackle, and that matter to the world. This is our life's work, to amplify human imagination and intelligence. This is a dynamic team working with state of the art, unique technology. If you are someone that loves a challenge, come join this diverse team and help move the needle!
What you'll be doing:
- Work on crafting creative Signal Integrity solutions to complex system design problems.
- Modeling and Optimization of vias, connectors, sockets, breakouts and various system components in 3D EM tools.
- System-level signal integrity simulations of high-speed NVlink 200 Gbs+, USB-4, PCIe5, GDDR6, LP5X and other interfaces.
- Constant improvements of SI models using data from lab measurements and/or modelling tool/methodology updates.
- Substrate and board layout SI guidelines creation, review and post layout SI extractions.
- Simulation automation, data gathering, analysis and visualization using JMP, MATLAB or similar tools.
- Opportunity to work in a dynamic cross-functional role to optimize package, PCB, ASIC, mixed signal circuit.
- What we need to see: MS and/or PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering (or equivalent experience) with minimum 2 years of work experience

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
