As a Physical Layer Firmware Architecture Engineer at NVIDIA, you will undertake an outstanding role to build the future of computer graphics, AI, and high-speed communication protocols. You will direct ambitious projects across teams and translate customer needs into flawless technical specifications for firmware architecture, system embedded software, user interfaces, and high-level development.
What you will be doing:
• Lead projects across team, starting from processing requirements and definitions from customers and translating those into detailed technical specification for firmware architecture, system embedded software, user interface and high-level design.
• Supervise the implementation of projects by team-leaders / developers / QA, participate in low level design reviews, QA test plans reviews, and keep track of changes and handle obstacles.
• Define the architecture of implementing physical layer standards into NVIDIA's ASIC devices.
• Involved in standard bodies activities and definition of next generation protocols.
• Define features for the phy layer, to exploit interoperability between different generations of communication.
• Be involved in product definition and the high-speed protocols that the NVIDIA networking devices will support.
• Work closely with multi-functional teams - design, backend, system, marketing, firmware, driver, etc. Provide architecture definitions and as a result converge on key design decisions.
What We Need to See
• BSc degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience, with a GPA of 85+ from the University, preferably The Technion
• Proven networking knowledge
• Excellent problem-solving skills, teamwork, and interpersonal abilities
• Strong communication skills and analytical capabilities
Ways to Stand Out from the Crowd
• Experience in physical layer communication, system, signal integrity, or high-speed data transmission protocols
• Familiarity with wire-line physical layer protocols like IEEE 802.3, InfiniBand, PCIe, USB, etc.
This role provides an opportunity to collaborate with top-tier talent and join a group committed to expanding the limits of what can be achieved. Your efforts will have a direct impact on NVIDIA’s capacity to compete and lead in the technology sector. Join us and bring innovative solutions to life that shape the future of computing!
