Join to apply for the
Systems Validation Engineer
role at
NVIDIA .
NVIDIA is building the world’s most groundbreaking and state of the art compute platforms for the world to use. It’s because of our work that scientists, researchers and engineers can advance their ideas. At its core, our visual computing technology not only enables an amazing computing experience, but it is also energy efficient! We pioneered a supercharged form of computing loved by the most demanding computer users in the world - scientists, designers, artists, and gamers. It’s not just technology though! It is our people, some of the brightest in the world, and our diverse company culture make NVIDIA one of the most fun, innovative and dynamic places to work. At the center of NVIDIA’s culture are our core values like innovation, excellence and determination and team, that guide us to be the best we can be.
We are looking for a Systems Validation Engineer in the Datacenter Systems Engineering team. You'll work closely with board designers, Silicon Solutions and AE teams to validate and characterize the system’s power management controllers of NVIDIA’s datacenter modules. The ideal candidate is self‑motivated, very comfortable in a lab environment and demonstrates a passion towards product system‑level validation. They should have strong debug/circuit analysis fundamentals as well as automation and scripting experience. They must be capable of growing in a fast‑paced environment with evolving product definitions.
What You’ll Be Doing
Develop and execute validation test plans for server platforms and modules
Perform electrical and functional validation of key interfaces and components, including power sensors, MCUs, I2C, SPI, SMBus, and PCIe
Diagnose and resolve system issues during NPI builds to ensure timely and successful product launches
Debug and root cause hardware, firmware, and interoperability issues
Collaborate closely with cross‑functional teams to root cause and resolve hardware and software issues
What We Need To See
BSEE/BSCE or equivalent experience
3+ years of hands‑on hardware/software debug experience
Demonstrates a strong ability to quickly learn new technologies and independently seek out information to solve complex hardware validation challenges
Strong capability to debug and root cause challenging system issues involving board‑level failures, signal integrity, component‑level problems, and firmware behavior
Lab experience with board bring‑up, hardware debug, and use of tools like logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and multimeters
Strong understanding of digital design, circuit design analysis and computer architecture
Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd
Solid grasp of low‑level system architecture, digital circuit design, and high‑speed bus protocols (PCIe, USB, NVMe), with a clear understanding of how hardware integrates with firmware and software stacks
Lead hands‑on debugging and root cause analysis across hardware and firmware layers to drive rapid issue resolution and product quality improvements
Hands‑on experience in system‑level power management validation for CPU and GPU products
Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is $108,000 USD – $178,250 USD for Level 2, and $132,000 USD – $207,000 USD for Level 3. You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
Seniority Level Mid‑Senior level
Employment Type Full‑time
Job Function Computer Hardware Manufacturing, Software Development, and Computers and Electronics Manufacturing
NVIDIA is committed to fostering a diverse work environment and proud to be an equal‑opportunity employer. We highly value diversity in our current and future employees, and we do not discriminate (including in our hiring and promotion practices) on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status or any other characteristic protected by law.
