NVIDIA

Do you enjoy hacking and tinkering at the lowest levels of software? Are you capable of crafting and implementing creative secure firmware solutions in heavily resource-constrained environments? If so, you’re primed to help develop the boot software and tools that powers the world’s best GPUs. We are searching for an outstanding software engineer to fill a challenging, yet fun role on our GPU Firmware team. You will be joining a team whose primary mission is designing and implementing world-class firmware that drives displays including HDMI, DP, and eDP, while dealing with the formidable constraints of security, boot-time and storage space. Every. Byte. Counts.

This is your chance to create waves in the industry while directly working with and alongside some of the most top-valued diverse minds in the graphics software and GPU business. Your goal will be to shape the future of GPU technologies doing exactly what you enjoy: solving puzzles. If this sounds interesting and you’re up for the task, we’d certainly like to hear from you! !

What you'll be doing:

• Define, POC, Design, develop, test, debug, and optimize GPU display firmware features throughout the entire GPU lifecycle.
• Implement industry standard display technologies, including HDMI, DP, eDP, and the UEFI Graphics Output Protocol.
• Work closely with hardware, software, infrastructure, and business teams to transform new display features from idea to reality.
• Work with leading OS and PC vendors to improve and innovate on the startup experience.
• Create, document, and automate workflows, processes, and tooling for internal-facing and external-facing team projects.

What we need to see:

• BS or MS degree in EE/CS/CE (or equivalent experience).
• 3+ yrs experience.
• Display interface technology experience such as HDMI, DP, and eDP and VESA.
• Sturdy technical background in UEFI firmware development.
• In depth understanding of PC notebook and desktop architecture.
• Strong grasp of software development lifecycle and coding practices.
• Strong C, and scripting skills.
• Even stronger interpersonal skills with a sense of humor highly encouraged, but not required.
• Easy to work with, as you’ll constantly be engaged with both hardware designers and other software engineers to design, develop, and debug functional (and non-functional!) aspects of GPU subsystems and display functionality

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Background with display protocol analyzers.
• Experience in developing device BIOS, firmware, or other low-level software.
• Familiarity with x86/x64 and VGA assembly programming.
• Experience with OS user and kernel mode drivers.
• Passion for optimizing and unlocking the potential of yourself and others through your work.

With competitive salaries and a generous benefits package, NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the most desirable employers in the world. We have some of the most brilliant and talented people in the world working for us. If you are creative, autonomous and love a challenge, we want to hear from you.
