Senior System Software Engineer

We are now looking for a Senior Systems Software Engineer.
 

NVIDIA’s invention of the GPU 1999 sparked the growth of the PC gaming market, redefined modern computer graphics, and revolutionized parallel computing. More recently, GPU deep learning ignited modern AI — the next era of computing — with the GPU acting as the brain of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can perceive and understand the world. Today, we are increasingly known as “the AI computing company”. We are looking to grow our company , and grow our teams with the smartest people in the world
 

Systems Software supports NVIDIA's new high performance chipset business. They are generalists, with a deep understanding of the today's PC architecture, including bus protocols such as PCI, AGP, USB and 1394, and CPU booting, arbitration, and cache management protocols. System engineers program down to the metal and are comfortable around hardware specs. They write software for Networking, Audio, IDE, SMBus and other hardware, and implement support for modern PC standards.

What you’ll be doing:

• Developing and validating software for our next generation display used in mobile and desktop GPUs

• Solve and debug problems related to display in order to support our customers, partners and users.

• Drive bring-up, tuning, and optimization of DP/eDP PHY and protocol layers.

• Work with cross-functional teams to enable DisplayPort/eDP/HDMI-based designs for platforms like laptops, tablets, and embedded systems.

• Debug and root-cause interoperability issues with external monitors/panels and docking stations.

• Support compliance testing (e.g., VESA CTS).

What we need to see:

• Master’s or bachelor's degree in computer science, Electrical Engineering or Equivalent with 8 + years of experience

• Strong C programming skills with assembly experience, as well as having shown initiative in pursuing independent coding projects

• Solid engineering background and understanding of good code methodology

• Good foundation and understanding of OS concepts.

• Strong hands-on experience with DisplayPort 1.2/1.4/2.0 and eDP 1.3+ protocols.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Strong interest in display technologies.

• Good understanding of AUX channel, Main Link Training, Lane configuration, Voltage Swing/Pre-emphasis, and Panel Power Sequencing.

• Familiarity with DP Alt Mode over USB-C, USB4 tunneling is a plus.

• Exposure to VESA specifications, link training mechanisms, LTTPR, MST, DSC

• Ability to interpret schematics and work with layout teams on board-level DP/eDP design.

NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers. We have some of the most brilliant and talented people on the planet working for us. If you're creative and autonomous, we want to hear from you!
