Senior Software Engineer - Chip Simulation

We are looking for an exceptional Hardware Simulation Engineer for the ChipSim team. You will build software systems that validate our next-generation datacenter GPUs before they exist in silicon - enabling firmware, driver, and architecture teams to develop in parallel with chip fabrication.

Working closely with hardware architects and cross-functional teams, you will create simulation platforms for networking features like NVLink and InfiniBand that power the world's largest AI supercomputers.

Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain simulation models for next-generation NVIDIA networking hardware features
• Build validation frameworks and test suites for InfiniBand and NVLink protocol implementations
• Create automation tools and CI/CD pipelines for regression testing and result analysis
• Design developer-friendly simulation environments that enable rapid iteration and debugging
• Collaborate with hardware, firmware, and software teams to ensure accurate chip behavior modeling

Requirements:

• Bachelor's Degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field
• 5+ years of experience with Python and C in systems programming or infrastructure contexts
• Strong debugging skills across multiple system layers and processes
• Knowledge of Linux systems programming
• Creative, motivated, and collaborative team player

Nice to Have:

• Experience with networking protocols (InfiniBand, RDMA, NVLink, Ethernet) or distributed systems
• Background in hardware/firmware environments or hardware-software co-development
• Familiarity with simulation, emulation, or virtualization platforms
• Experience with CI methodology & tools (Git, Gerrit, Jenkins, pytest)
• Systems-level performance optimization experience
