## Description

NVIDIA is seeking an Emulation and Prototyping Engineer to join our Emulation team.

The successful candidate will work on building FPGA prototypes and hardware emulation environments for our next-generation GPUs, SOCs, NICs, and Switches.

**Key Responsibilities:**

- Building FPGA prototypes and hardware emulation environments by making RTL FPGA/emulation-friendly, partitioning the design, and taking it through synthesis, place-and-route, and emulator compilation flows.

- Improving performance of FPGA prototypes and emulation platforms, analyzing timing/performance bottlenecks, and generating bitstreams/images.

- Bringing up designs on FPGA prototyping and hardware emulation platforms and driving complex debug and problem-solving activities.

- Releasing prototypes and emulation environments to internal customers and supporting them through debug, validation, and software enablement.

- Understanding the design and implementation, defining configurations, developing/modifying bring-up and testing infrastructure, and verifying correctness of the design.

- Working closely with architects, designers, verification engineers, validation teams, and software teams to accomplish project goals.

**Requirements:**

- B.S. or M.S. in EE, CS, or CE with 3+ years of experience in FPGA prototyping and/or hardware emulation.

- Strong understanding of FPGA prototyping and hardware emulation architectures, devices, flows, and tools.

- Hands-on experience with Synopsys ProtoCompiler or Synplify Premier, Xilinx Vivado, and familiarity with emulation platforms such as Synopsys ZeBu or Siemens Veloce.

- Exposure to ASIC design and verification tools (VCS or equivalent, Verdi, GDB).

- Knowledge of Verilog, SystemVerilog, and digital design concepts.

- Understanding of industry-standard protocols such as PCIe, CXL, NVLINK, USB, CHI, and CPU-GPU coherency.

**Desired Skills:**

- Scripting knowledge (Perl/shell/Tcl/Python).

- Good documentation, communication, and interpersonal skills.

- Experience with memory bring-up of LPDDR5/6, DDR5/6, CXL/PCIe, and/or high-speed interfaces such as USB4/3.
