Mixed Signal Design Engineer - New College Grad 2026

Summary

NVIDIA is a technology company developing products spanning consumer graphics, self-driving cars, and artificial intelligence. The company is seeking a mixed-signal design engineer to develop next-generation NVLINK high-speed interfaces and analog circuits, taking integrated circuit designs from concept through silicon characterization. The role involves circuit architecture, transistor-level design, verification, optimization, layout guidance, and post-silicon debugging.

Responsibilities

• Develop and implement high speed interfaces and analog circuits. You will have hands on experience taking innovative integrated circuit designs at data rates of 25Gbps and higher from concept through silicon characterization
• Help by defining circuit requirements and complete design from schematic, layout, and verification to characterization
• Conduct schematic design of deep-submicron CMOS technologies using Spectre, Hspice or like
• Take ownership for the architecture, transistor design and verification using industry standard EDA tools such as Cadence virtuoso
• Optimize circuit to meet the specifications for system performance
• Work closely with layout engineers by providing detailed floorplan and guidance for matching and high-speed routings
• Provide support for post-silicon bring-up and debugging

Skills

• Hold a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or related field with strong analog design background (or equivalent experience)
• Prior analog design experience
• CMOS Analog / Mixed Signal Circuit Design Experience in deep sub-micron process (especially in FINFET)
• Experience with design and verification tools (Cadence's IC design environment, analog circuit simulation tools like Spectre, HSpice, Finesim, XA)
• Experience in crafting test bench environments for component and top level circuit verification
• Behavioral modeling of analog and digital circuits
• Strong debugging and analytical skills
• Analog simulation for noise analysis, loop stability analysis, ac/dc/tran analysis, monte-carlo, etc
• Strong interpersonal skills and ability & desire to work as a great teammate are huge plus
