Job description
from Nvidia careersAt NVIDIA, our work powers accelerated computing and modern AI — from scientific research to the generative AI applications reshaping our world. The PCIe physical layer is where firmware meets the silicon: link bring-up, signal integrity, and cross-generation behavior on real silicon and in real customer environments.
NVIDIA is building a dedicated Physical Layer team within its PCIe Firmware organization, with ownership across the networking product portfolio — and we are looking for a hands-on first-line manager to lead it!
What you'll be doing:
Lead a focused team of physical layer firmware engineers as a player-coach — guiding debug directly while growing the team's engineers and tech leads.
Own the team's delivery for PCIe link bring-up, equalization, recovery, and physical-layer-related customer escalations across multiple products.
Partner with Chip Design, Architecture, Software, Validation, and Customer Engineering to drive issues to root cause and turn point fixes into reusable improvements.
Act as the technical reference on physical layer scope — both for triage and for cleanly identifying when an issue is not physical layer.
Champion AI-native engineering inside the team and across the organization, applying AI tools to triage, debug, and knowledge capture.
What we need to see:
Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience.
