Senior Silicon Power and Thermal Controllers Engineer

NVIDIA's Silicon Co-Design Group (SCG) is seeking a Senior Silicon Power and Thermal Controllers Engineer. You will design, implement, and productize power-performance and thermal-control mechanisms for GPUs, CPUs, and SoCs.

The exceptional hire uses AI deliberately to compress debug and modeling cycles, with the judgment to know where it accelerates real work and where it introduces risk.

Responsibilities:

• Design, implement, and tune silicon power and thermal controllers in close partnership with firmware, hardware, software, and design/power-architecture teams , from spec through productization.
• Drive debug and resolution of power-limiting constraints, and deliver efficient, time-to-market product-specific customizations that unlock performance without compromising the thermal envelope.
• Deliver system-level power optimizations spanning silicon, platform, software, and manufacturing , for products ranging from large-scale datacenter accelerators to low-power client devices.
• Partner with the SCG Tools team to left-shift modeling, analysis, and test infrastructure , refine methodologies, sharpen procedures, and bring new closed-loop techniques into production.
• Validate silicon power and thermal features across multi-functional teams from bring-up through production silicon, and be responsible for the WARs and productized fixes through to confirmation.
• Translate complex power, thermal, and performance signals into decision-ready options that give leadership the clarity to act on POR, binning, and program-impacting risks.
• Work alongside system architects, chip and board designers, software/firmware engineers, power-architecture engineers, Product Definition Engineers, and ATE engineers in a high-energy environment to bring industry-defining products to market.

Requirements:

• BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• 6+ years implementing power and thermal controllers in firmware for GPU, CPU, or SoC products.
• Hands-on experience with system-level silicon bring-up and validation, DVFS, power characterization and modeling, performance analysis, and perf-per-watt optimization.
• Background in implementing system-level features, thermal policies, and data-analysis and statistics workflows.
• Solid understanding of digital design, circuit analysis, CPU/GPU/SoC architecture, PTPX, advanced process technologies, and transistor/device physics.
• Demonstrated experience operating across globally distributed and offshore engineering teams.
• Strong written and verbal communication; able to translate complex post-silicon signals into crisp, decision-ready options for executive leadership.

Benefits:

• Competitive salaries
• Generous benefits package
• Equity eligibility
