Full Job Description
NVIDIA has been transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years. It’s a unique legacy of innovation that’s fueled by great technology—and amazing people. Today, we’re tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world. As a Formal Verification Engineer at NVIDIA, you will verify the build and implementation of the industry's leading GPUs. In this position, your responsibilities will be to verify the micro-architecture using formal verification tools, define the verification scope, and ensure correctness. You will employ sophisticated formal techniques to acquire sufficiently bounded proofs while working with architects, designers, and pre- & post-silicon verification teams to accomplish your tasks. You will efficiently complete the formal verification effort for the entire project cycle, delivering high-quality results on schedule, and clearly conveying those results to the team. **What you will be doing:** * Identify key behaviors for verification to write clear testplans for sophisticated designs. * Implement testplans using the latest formal techniques, including the development of environment assumptions, assertions, and cover properties. * Develop abstraction models to overcome complexity challenges and acquire full proofs, or bounded proofs with sufficient coverage. * Drive formal tools to realize their best performance. * Debug RTL to identify causes of failure scenarios. * Contribute to flow and script development to improve team efficiency. * Articulate formal verification coverage to part
