An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world.

  • Ability to create python applications and hardware control software. Ideally C and C++ as well

  • Basic prototyping in 3d modeling software and 3d printing tools

  • Lab skills - oscilloscope, power measurements, SI testing, scripting, and soldering

Join us and be part of a team that is determined to craft the future of technology. Your expertise will make a lasting impact, helping NVIDIA compete at the highest levels in an ever-evolving industry. We are looking for someone who thrives in a dynamic, fast-paced environment and is ready to make a significant impact on the future of computing at NVIDIA.
