About the role
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. Make the choice to join us today!
As part of the Silicon Solutions Team, we architect and deliver groundbreaking solutions for productizing NVIDIA's chips into consumer, professional, server, mobile, and automotive markets. Silicon characterization, correlation to arch & design expectations, finalize product specifications, develop productization techniques and infrastructure around it are part of our responsibilities. Dealing with challenges of the latest process node technologies is also part of the work. Join this dynamic team as a Senior System Perf Engineer, and help craft the future of computing in Bengaluru.
What you'll be doing:
- Lead the productization of Performance controllers from pre-silicon planning through bring-up, tuning, validation, and production.
- Collaborate with architecture, design, firmware, and software teams to define controller requirements & features , identify improvements and translate new capabilities into production-ready solutions.
- Characterize and tune controller behaviour across workloads, operating conditions, silicon variation, and product power and thermal limits. Maximize the perf and Perf/Watt with-in architectural bottlenecks & limitations, Power/Thermal system limits to provide best customer experience for the products
- Correlate silicon behaviour with pre-silicon expectations, debug & resolve complex problems during bring up and final closed loop performance stage involving silicon HW, firmware, software, power delivery network, system thermals etc.
