About the role

Internship in silicon validation focusing on pre-production silicon characterization, feature evaluation, methodology development, failure analysis, and AI-driven data flows within NVIDIA's Silicon Co-Design Group for RDSS program.

Responsibilities

  • Own characterization of pre-production silicon — speed, performance, power, yield, and quality — from early bring-up through production sign-off.
  • Define and refine features. Evaluate new silicon capabilities against real-world use cases, quantify benefit and cost of architected features post-silicon, and provide data to determine future products.
  • Build methodologies that last. Develop characterization and validation methodologies that close the simulation-to-silicon gap, correlate measured behavior to design, and scale across products and generations.
  • Drive failure analysis. Form hypotheses, design experiments, trace root causes across circuit, firmware, and software layers, and confirm answers.
  • Analyze real-world workloads — LLM inference and training, generative AI, AAA games, autonomous driving stacks — to push performance and energy efficiency.
  • Build and deploy AI-driven analysis flows, intelligent data pipelines, and automated triage tools to expand coverage and compress cycle time.
  • Build tools the team runs on — automation for characterization, data collection, test execution, and analysis. What you build will be used.

Qualifications

  • BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or Systems Engineering.
  • Solid fundamentals in digital design, computer architecture, circuit analysis, signal integrity, and statistics.
  • Proficiency in Python, C/C++, or equivalent.
  • The instinct to own outcomes. When something is wrong, you notice and you act.
  • You don’t need to check every box; emphasis on thinking, learning, and demonstrated builds over exact background alignment.
