PhD Research Intern

NVIDIA Research is seeking world-class circuit researchers to contribute to the exploration of future high-performance, low-power circuit technologies and development of prototype circuits.  If you have a strong circuits background, desire to collaborate with world class researchers on critical problems, and a vision about how to advance the state-of-the-art, this team will be a great fit for you. NVIDIA has an ambitious circuit research agenda that involves taking circuit technology to the next level. This position offers an opportunity to have a real impact in a fast-moving technology-focused company.

What you’ll be doing:

• Explore circuit approaches to optimizing processor computation and interconnect performance and power

• Design and implement circuit approaches in prototype systems

• Collaborate with other team members, both in research and product roles

• Transfer technology to product groups

What we need to see: 

• Pursuing a PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science/Engineering, or related field 

• Excellent knowledge and broad background of theory and practice of circuit design 

• Depth in one or more areas of high-performance circuit design (PLLs and clocking, SerDes and high-speed signaling, photonics, SRAMs, power delivery/regulation, security circuits, and high-speed logic)

• Track record of research excellence or significant product development 

• Excellent communications and collaboration skills 

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Particularly deep expertise in one or more CAD tool packages such as Cadence, Synopsys, or HFSS

• Excellent programming skills in a rapid prototyping environment such as MATLAB, Python, or Perl
