Join NVIDIA as a Senior System Mechanical Engineer and help build the systems powering the future of AI and accelerated computing!
In this role, you’ll work alongside a collaborative, high-performing team pushing the boundaries of hardware innovation. Based in Santa Clara, CA, you will lead the development of mechanical systems for GPU and LPU-based AI infrastructure—from early concept through production—driving improvements in chassis design, thermal performance, and system integration. This is an opportunity to shape product direction, deliver high-quality solutions at scale, and make a meaningful impact on technologies used around the world.
What you'll be doing:
Lead the end-to-end design and development of mechanical systems for AI and high-performance computing platforms.
Translate product requirements into practical, scalable mechanical designs that meet performance, reliability, and cost goals.
Design and improve server chassis and compute platforms, focusing on cooling, serviceability, and usability.
Partner with electrical and thermal teams to analyze and improve system performance, using simulation and test data to guide decisions.
Collaborate with suppliers and manufacturing partners to drive design-for-manufacture (DFM) and smooth production ramp.
Build, test, and troubleshoot prototypes, leading validation efforts and root cause analysis to improve product quality.
What we need to see:
BS in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience); MS/PhD preferred.
6+ years of experience designing mechanical systems for servers, datacenter hardware, or similar products.
Proficiency in CAD tools (Creo preferred, SolidWorks, NX) and strong skills in modeling and defining engineering drawing requirements.
Knowledge of thermal and structural analysis methods to guide design decisions.
Knowledge of common manufacturing processes, including sheet metal, machining, plastics, and assembly methods.
Experience conducting tolerance analysis.
Experience working with electronic components and system integration, including boards, connectors, and cooling solutions.
Hands-on approach with the ability to debug and solve problems in lab and production environments.
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
Experience designing AI, GPU, or high-performance computing systems and a track record of improving product quality, cost, or manufacturing efficiency.
Familiarity with rack-level systems or datacenter deployment environments and experience delivering products from early development through high-volume production.
Demonstrated ability to manage multiple project tasks and support project schedules.
Strong collaboration skills and ability to work effectively across teams.
