NVIDIA's invention of the GPU 1999 fueled 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 with the most talent in the world! We are looking for a Structural Test Engineer to be part of our Manufacturing Test Team. You will be building next-generation boards and systems, work closely with cross functional teams and suppliers to drive Functional Test HW solution. This position offers the opportunity to have real impact in a multifaceted, technology-focused company impacting product lines ranging from consumer graphics to self-driving cars and the growing field of artificial intelligence.

 

The ideal candidate will drive the scope of structural test plan on baseboards/systems with cross functional teams, review design concept, define validation plan, develop/automate configurations of test infrastructure to test various product features, and optimize test cost/quality/manufacturability. The candidate will be responsible for the development and implementation of structural test plan since EVT build to find SMT, PCB, and component issues earlier to catch and fix rather than finding them later at following stations which will complicate and delay the debug time. You will work closely with PCB designers, tester vendors, fixture houses and CMs to enable the process.

 

What you will be doing:

  • Define ICT capability, HW design requirements, and board debug capabilities from design review phase, NPI bring-up to mass production phase.
