NVIDIA has transformed computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years through exceptional technology and the people who build it. In semiconductor manufacturing, our role is to enable the ecosystem, not compete within it. We partner with fabs, equipment manufacturers, and software providers to make inspection, metrology, and manufacturing intelligence dramatically faster on the NVIDIA platform. Our team builds the software that makes this possible: models, adaptation and evaluation workflows, and deployable inference capabilities that partners integrate into their own tools. We work in environments where labeled data is limited and proprietary, distributions shift across tools and fabs, production budgets are tight, and software must operate inside air-gapped facilities. Weβre seeking a Principal Systems Software Engineer for Semiconductor Inspection in Santa Clara. This is a hands-on architect role: you will define the approach, build it, evaluate it, and demonstrate the results. You will work across computer vision, time-series modeling, multimodal AI, anomaly detection, model adaptation, evaluation, and production inference. Success means technology that a fab or equipment vendor can integrate, operate, and trustβnot only a successful internal demonstration. What youβll be doing: Define and prototype AI system architectures spanning optical and e-beam inspection, wafer and mask inspection, metrology, defect review, equipment signals, and process data. Advance world foundation model capabilities for semiconductor manufacturing, including vision, time-series and multimodal representation learning, model adaptation, domain transfer, and data-scarce defect understanding. Develop workflows for defect detection, classification, localization, segmentation, nuisance filtering, ADC, AD
