À propos de ce poste High-Speed Interconnect Architect chez NVIDIA
NVIDIA has been transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years. Today, we're tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing — an era powered by GPUs at the heart of computers, robots, and self-driving cars. As an NVIDIAN, you'll be part of a diverse, supportive team where everyone is inspired to do their best work.
We're looking for a curious and driven Junior Interconnect Engineer to join our High-Speed Interconnect team onsite in Santa Clara, CA. This is a great opportunity to develop deep expertise in high-speed cable and connector engineering (≥100Gbps per lane) alongside some of the best engineers in the industry. You'll contribute to real product development while growing your skills across electrical and mechanical domains.
What you'll be doing:
Support the development and documentation of product requirements for high-speed cables and connectors
Collaborate with senior engineers and cross-functional teams to understand customer needs and translate them into design inputs
Assist in mechanical and signal integrity analysis, learning to navigate the tradeoffs between the two
Participate in root cause analysis for mating and mechanical issues, and help refine designs for manufacturability and reliability
Support prototyping efforts and help track progress through development cycles
Work closely with vendors and internal R&D teams under the guidance of senior architects
Occasional travel to vendors, manufacturers, or customer sites (~10%) to build hands-on experience
What we need to see:
B.S. in Electrical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering (or a related field) or equivalent experience
2+ years of experience in hardware engineering, with exposure to connectors, cables, or high-speed signal design
Basic understanding of signal integrity or mechanical design principles — you don't need to be an expert in both, but curiosity across both domains is a must
Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and communicate technical ideas clearly
Eagerness to learn, ask questions, and grow quickly in a fast-paced environment
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
Any coursework or hands-on experience with high-speed PCB design, signal integrity, or connector mechanics
Familiarity with engineering tools such as FEA, thermal modeling, or lab measurement equipment
Side projects, internships, or research involving hardware prototyping or manufacturing
Genuine enthusiasm for how physical interconnects enable next-generation computing
