NVIDIA has been transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years. It's a unique legacy of innovation that's fueled by great technology—and amazing people. Today, we're tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing.

An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world.

Doing what's never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world's best talent.

As an NVIDIAN, you'll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work.

Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.


We're seeking a Senior VLSI Library Methodology Engineer to architect automation that powers library modeling, quality checks, and release for NVIDIA's PD flows.

You'll build and integrate data‑driven pipelines and verification systems, collaborating with process and cell‑design teams to align modeling standards with advanced technology nodes.

What You'll Be Doing

Develop scalable systems and methodologies for physical design and quality checking of graphics processors and SOC libraries
Build automated flows and tools for library analysis, validation, and quality control
Collaborate with design teams to integrate library quality systems and enhance cell design methodologies, with attention to adaptive threshold partitioning
Define and implement guidelines for library modeling, abstraction, and data integrity

What We Need To See

M.S. in Electrical Engineering or related field (or equivalent experience)
4+ years of Physical Design and CAD methodology experience, including 2+ years in library modeling, quality systems, or physical design automation
Proven understanding of chip design flows (floor planning, clock/power distribution, place and route, integration, verification) and hierarchical/top-down approaches
Strong experience in developing and maintaining library models, with emphasis on system-level quality, robustness, and automation, including exposure to contextual model calibration
Advanced programming skills in Python, C++, and Perl; experience in workflow automation with software architecture and data pipelines development required


We welcome you joining our team with some of the most hard-working people in the world working together to promote rapid growth.

Are you passionate about becoming a part of a best-in-class team supporting the latest in GPU and AI technology? If so, we want to hear from you.

With software architecture and data pipelines development required
