Job Description

NVIDIA's Networking business unit is seeking a Power and Performance Characterization Engineer to join their team in Yokneam, Israel. This role combines hardware engineering with software development, focusing on system-level IC testing and VLSI considerations. The position requires expertise in power measurements of networking ASICs in multi-component systems, correlating power consumption to VLSI/timing principles, and setting operational conditions.

The ideal candidate will be responsible for analyzing discrepancies, refining test methodologies, and defining post-silicon power models of networking ASICs. They will work closely with design, test, and characterization teams to develop and implement robust test strategies that improve product quality and yield.

This role offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of hardware and software, requiring both technical expertise in electrical engineering and programming skills in Python/C++. The position involves hands-on work with cutting-edge technology in NVIDIA's networking division, making it an excellent opportunity for engineers interested in high-performance computing and network infrastructure.

NVIDIA offers a dynamic work environment with continuous learning opportunities and collaboration across different aspects of the company. The role provides exposure to advanced networking technologies and the chance to work with state-of-the-art ASIC development.
