About the role

Senior Hardware Engineer focusing on power and thermal controllers for NVIDIA silicon, from pre-silicon planning through bring-up, tuning, validation, and production, with emphasis on AI/ML-driven characterization and data analysis to optimize power delivery and thermal performance.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the productization of power and thermal controllers from pre-silicon planning through bring-up, tuning, validation, and production.
  • Collaborate with architecture, design, firmware, and software teams to define controller requirements, 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.
  • Correlate silicon behaviour with pre-silicon expectations and resolve complex problems involving silicon, firmware, software, power delivery, thermal, and performance to identify root causes and bring issues to resolution.
  • Develop and execute tuning strategies that improve power and thermal control while increasing product performance within built operating limits.
  • Apply AI/ML and data-driven methods to analyze characterization and telemetry data, identify anomalies and trends, accelerate controller tuning, and improve debug efficiency across silicon programs.

Qualifications

  • Bachelors/Master in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field, or equivalent experience.
  • Over 5+ years of experience in silicon power/performance, post-silicon bring-up, power or thermal controller characterization, productization, or related hardware field.
  • Solid grasp of silicon power, performance, and thermal characteristics, including voltage/frequency relationships, workloads, operating conditions, and system constraints.
  • Hands-on experience with silicon bring-up, characterization, validation, and system-level hardware debugging.
  • Experience analyzing hardware, firmware, software, power delivery, and thermal interactions and resolving root causes.
  • Strong data-analysis and problem-solving skills, ability to form hypotheses from measurements and drive experiments.
