Location: Bengaluru
Company: NVIDIA
What You’ll Be Doing
- Be part of NVIDIA Power Architecture Group that owns end-to-end power aspects such as – ASIC power analysis, power architecture, low power design, power-aware verification, advanced power methodologies, UPF methodologies, power feature bring-up on silicon, and post-Si power correlation for NVIDIA’s family of products.
- Contributing to power analysis by helping to architect, develop, verify & correlate power estimation models/tools for NVIDIA’s products
- Be part of the team that architects & designs system-level power features for optimising the dynamic and leakage power dissipation for different use cases.
- Work on power verification which includes structural, functional & power aware verification of power features of NVIDIA products by coming up with test plans, write testcases, build test bench components like Monitors, assertions and coverage points & own verification convergence across RTL, Gates and Silicon.
- Validate the effectiveness of the power features on silicon, conduct studies and contribute to the Performance/Watt improvement ideas.
- Help build power management solutions and drive innovation in energy efficiency across NVIDIA’s product portfolio.
