VLSI Design Automation Software Engineer

NVIDIA is looking for a Software Engineer to build the next-gen infrastructure software behind our VLSI organization. You'll join a CAD team that develops the systems running NVIDIA's chip design flows at large scale on our compute farm, and infra. We support design teams in multiple geographies, all the way to tape-out. In this role, you'll design and write production software that makes this infrastructure more efficient and reliable. You'll also use AI agents to automate the work that slows engineers down. We want an engineer who takes ownership, makes decisions based on data and communicates clearly. What you'll be doing: Architect and build the software platform behind our compute infrastructure, giving design teams worldwide reliable, efficient, self-service access at scale. Build data pipelines, analytics and applications that show how our infrastructure is used and how it's performing. Use that data to drive capacity planning, efficiency and decisions across the organization. Develop AI agents that diagnose failed jobs, analyze logs and handle routine engineering requests. Work closely with physical design engineers in multiple geographies (about 50% of the role). debug job, storage and license issues, then turn recurring problems into software: automated checks, self-service tools and permanent fixes. Own your software from start to finish: architecture, data storage, UI, testing, CI/CD, deployment and maintenance, with code review and reproducible builds as standard practice.
