Senior PCIe Firmware Engineer
NVIDIA
Designs the chips and software that power AI
We are hiring a Senior PCIe Firmware Engineer to join the Chip Design PCIe Firmware team, based in Beijing. You will be the team's first-line representative for our Chinese customers — keeping the highest standard of NVIDIA's quality, efficiently resolving customer issues, and implementing the features our customers need. You will work on the low-level C Firmware code layer for groundbreaking network adapters and the next generation of NVIDIA devices, backed by automation and testing environment.
What you'll be doing:
Customers support as the team's first-line representative — working alongside, or immediately behind, theApplication Engineering layer — reproduce, debug, root-cause, and resolve field issues on post-silicon(shipping) products, and provide timely, high-quality technical responses.
Turn customer feature requests into reality — design, implement, and verify firmware features for postsilicon products, in close coordination with the customer and the wider PCIe group.
Take part in the team's activities — feature implementation and verification, complex post-silicon debug,and release convergence toward official releases.
Collaborate across teams — PCIe firmware, software, architecture, and QA — as well as with local customer oriented application engineers.
Improve the automated process - Constantly improving our efficiency and integrity.
What we need to see:
B.Sc. or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering / Computer Science / Computer Engineering.
5+ years of experience in firmware design and development.
Strong low-level C and embedded fundamentals.
Strong debugging skills — the ability to drive complex post-silicon / embedded issues to root cause.
Customer-facing communication — fluent Mandarin and professional English.
Problem solver, independent and curious.
Strong social skills and self-learning ability.
Strong multi-disciplinary capabilities and the ability to work with a wide interface of people — chip design, firmware, software, architecture, QA
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
Experience in a customer-facing engineering or support role, ideally with networking / data-center customers.
Knowledge in networking, Linux, and scripting languages (Python).
Familiarity with hardware verification concepts and tools (C++, Python, GIT, Jenkins automation, HW familiarity).
Experience in collaborating with software and architecture teams to define and implement firmware.
Experience with in-depth problem solving
NVIDIA designs the chips and software that power artificial intelligence and sells complete data center systems to cloud providers, AI labs, and other businesses, along with GeForce graphics cards for gamers. Its GPUs, chips that perform thousands of calculations at once, became the main hardware for AI after researchers used them to train the AlexNet image-recognition model in 2012. NVIDIA connects many GPUs with its own processors and networking gear into servers and rack-sized computers, and developers program them through its CUDA software. These systems bring in most of its sales, and it also makes chips for cars and robots. Jensen Huang co-founded NVIDIA in 1993, and it is based in Santa Clara, California.
