Silicon Packaging Design Engineer Jobs

The Silicon Co-Design Group (SCG) sits at the crossroads of architecture, design, marketing, operations, and productization. Our work spans early architecture through final product delivery across Datacenter, Gaming, Robotics, Automotive, and Embedded markets. We work closely across functions to deliver chips that change what is possible. System Integration sits at the intersection of all of them. It is the layer where every architecture, design, software, and manufacturing decision meets reality. When something breaks late in a program, it usually breaks here first. We are hiring a Senior Manager to lead this team in the US and partner closely with teams globally. Your work will sit on the critical path of every NVIDIA silicon program, and the bar you set for system integration is the bar we ship to! The two hardest, highest-leverage problems in this seat: Find critical silicon issues earlier — often before software is production-ready. Left-shifting post-silicon coverage is the highest-value thing System Integration can do. Standing up wide-area testing as a repeatable capability is a core part of the role. Keep programs on milestone when upstream dependencies slip. Validation plans collide with reality every program! The team needs new strategies, not just contingency plans, to keep moving when software, firmware, or methodology slip. You will design and run those strategies. What you’ll be doing: Plan and execute post-silicon feature integration, PVT validation, and wide-area testing across NVIDIA’s GPU, SoC, and CPU programs. Build wide-area and in-system test as a repeatable capability that shifts post-silicon coverage left, so issues surface before we are production-ready. Lead resolution of the most complex system-level issues, RMAs, and HW/SW interaction problems with creative workarounds and focused lab experimentation. Deve

NVIDIA has been redefining computer graphics, desktop gaming, and enhanced computing capabilities for more than 25 years. Today, we are tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. As a NVIDIAN, you will work on problems that sit at the boundary of architecture, silicon, firmware, software, and production, where strong judgment matters as much as technical depth. We're the Silicon Design for Productization (DFP) Team, within the broader Silicon Co-Design Group, and we turn power and thermal design into executable productization methodology. Power and thermal are among the most complicated problems we work on at NVIDIA because they sit at the intersection of architecture, workload behavior, silicon variation, firmware policy, platform constraints, and product goals. Small decisions here have an outsized impact on performance, efficiency, reliability, bring-up speed, and ultimately what the product can deliver in the field. We define how features move from concepts to bring-up, characterization, validation, and release. In this role, you will help us build that bridge. We're looking for an engineer who reasons from first principles, flourishes with ownership in a fast-paced environment, and uses AI with sound judgment. What you’ll be doing: Lead the effort across multi-functional teams to keep the program’s power and thermal productization strategy clear, executable, and on track. Create methodology and silicon test plan based controller designs and architecture, including characterization process, debug tools, fuse/firmware settings and lab requirements. Drive resolution for challenging silicon issues through structured hypotheses, measurement plans, and root-cause closure. Steward the Power and Thermal playbook when the existing productization methodology

NVIDIA silicon runs the world's AI infrastructure. The frequency it delivers across every voltage, process corner, and workload is not assumed. It is measured, correlated, and validated. This role does that work. The Silicon Co-Design Group is where architecture intent becomes silicon reality. We own the boundary between what was designed and what was built, and we are the team that knows the difference. When a program ships at frequency and at quality, this team is a reason why. You will be the person who follows through between simulation and silicon. When the model is wrong, a frequency corner that doesn't hold, a Vmin that walks, a critical path that timing analysis missed, you find out why, and your data is what the rest of the program acts on. Architecture, design, and product teams do not guess. They use your numbers. The engineers who do this well are rare. They think like circuit designers, work like experimentalists, and reason like data scientists. If that is you, read on. What you'll be doing: Own silicon speed characterization from first power-on through production sign-off, covering frequency, Vmin, Vmax, and timing margins across the full PVT space. Close the correlation gap. Tie pre-silicon timing analysis and critical path predictions to measured silicon, quantify where the model diverges from reality, and produce analysis that architecture and design can act on with confidence. Trace failures to their source, whether a microarchitectural bottleneck, a critical path that doesn't close under voltage, a clocking issue, or a process corner the model didn't anticipate, and drive the resolution. Own and build AI agents that work at your direction: automated test orchestration, intelligent data pipelines, and analysis flows that expand coverage and compress cycle time without sacrificing difficulty. Know where AI accelerates real work and whe

NVIDIA has been redefining computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years. Today, we are tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. As an NVIDIAN, you will address challenges spanning architecture, silicon, firmware, software, and production — and excellent judgment matters as much as technical depth! We are the Silicon Power Team within the Silicon Co-Design Group. We architect and deliver groundbreaking solutions for productizing NVIDIA's chips across consumer, professional, server, embedded, mobile, and automotive markets. Silicon characterization, correlation to arch and design expectations, product spec finalization, and productization techniques and infrastructure are our day-to-day work — always on the bleeding edge of the industry. Small decisions here have outsized impact on performance, efficiency, reliability, bring-up speed, and ultimately what the product delivers in the field. We are hiring a Senior Silicon Power Engineer to own power-feature productization on a flagship silicon program. This is not a coordination role, and it is not a compliance role — it is the seat where power features either work at scale or become the reason a program slips. The two highest-leverage problems in this seat: Close the hardest multi-functional power failures before they gate a program. Take ambiguous, cross-boundary issues across architecture, firmware, validation, and platform to root-cause closure — with productized fixes and reusable methodology the next program can inherit. Build AI-enabled characterization as a real capability, not a demo. Every bring-up generates terabytes of characterization, shmoo, and telemetry data. Deploy AI workflows for data analysis, metric extraction, trend detection, and cross-bring-up correlation — with the guardrails and validation discipline to make them trustworthy enough to gate production decisions! <

About the Team OpenAI’s Hardware organization develops system and infrastructure solutions optimized for advanced AI workloads. We collaborate across research, software, and external hardware partners to design and deploy next-generation AI systems at scale. Our team works closely with silicon vendors and system partners to evaluate emerging technologies, validate performance characteristics, and ensure that hardware capabilities translate effectively to real-world AI workloads. About the Role We are seeking a 3P Hardware Architecture Expert with deep expertise in GPU and accelerator architectures to engage directly with silicon vendors and guide hardware decisions for AI infrastructure. In this role, you will evaluate architectural tradeoffs across compute, memory, and interconnect systems, translating vendor specifications into real-world workload impact. You will play a critical role in early silicon evaluation, benchmarking, and performance validation, helping ensure that next-generation hardware meets the needs of our workloads. This role is highly hands-on and requires both deep technical understanding and the ability to engage at a high level with partners such as NVIDIA and AMD on architectural direction and design tradeoffs. This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of 3 days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance. Key Responsibilities Engage deeply with silicon vendors (e.g NVIDIA & AMD) on GPU and accelerator architecture tradeoffs. Analyze and interpret performance, power, and efficiency characteristics of next-generation hardware. Translate vendor specifications into expected real-world performance for AI workloads. Evaluate architectural aspects including: compute throughput and utilization memory systems (HBM, cache hierarchies, bandwidth constraints) data types and precision tradeoffs (FP16, BF16, FP8, etc.) interconnect and scaling behavior. Run benchmarks and profiling to validate hardware performance a

NVIDIA's accelerated computing platforms move data at speeds that push the limits of what silicon and physics allow. Whether a high-speed interface trains reliably, maintains accurate margins, and survives every platform topology it will ever see is a question we answer ourselves. This role does that work. The Silicon Co-Design Group leads the boundary between what was designed and what was built. When a GPU, CPU, or SoC ships with interfaces that work at scale, this team is the reason. Most engineers debug within a layer. You will own the full stack. When an interface fails to train, the link margin is unexpectedly tight, or a customer reports a critical silicon issue, you trace the problem through protocol behavior, signal integrity, firmware, platform topology, and silicon marginalities. You then confirm that the fix works. Your methodology shapes how NVIDIA validates high-speed interfaces across generations. Your decisions affect yield, production ramp, and field quality. This is not a coordination role. The engineers who do it well hold protocol depth and system breadth simultaneously, never lose the thread across hardware, firmware, and software, and have the judgment to know when to go deeper and when to act. They are rare. Should that describe you, read on. What you'll be doing: Own post-silicon bring-up, characterization, validation, and debug of PCIe, NVLink, C2C, and other HSIO interfaces across NVIDIA GPUs, CPUs, and SoCs from first power-on through production readiness. Close the hardest failures. Drive root cause across protocol behavior, signal integrity, firmware and driver interactions, platform topology, and silicon marginalities and own every fix through to confirmation. Define validation strategy. Set test coverage, debug priorities, margining methodology, and stress criteria f
