NVIDIA’s next-generation Ethernet and NVL switches are at the core of the world’s most advanced compute clusters - from powering AI factories to scaling NVL-based GPU systems used in training/inferencing of the largest foundation models.\nAs a Chip Architect at NVIDIA, you will play a central role in defining the architecture of these high-bandwidth, low-latency switches. Your work will directly impact how AI supercomputers, hyperscale data centers, and cutting-edge research platforms communicate at scale. You will join a team with a strong track record of first-in-the-world products and help deliver the next leap in networking technology.\nWhat You'll Be Doing:\nDefine the end-to-end architecture and full feature set of next-generation NVL and Ethernet switch chips across all stages of the product lifecycle - from early concept to deployment.\nDevelop architectural specifications and design guidelines, and drive trade-off analyses across multiple architecture options.\nLead research and exploration of future architectures, including innovation that contributes to patent development.\nCollaborate closely with cross-functional teams - including other architecture groups, logic design, firmware, system software, and research - to ensure successful execution and integration.\nAct as a technical leader and subject matter expert, mentoring others and driving architectural excellence across the organization.\nWhat We Need to See:\nBSc or MSc in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field\n7+ years of proven experience in chip architecture, digital design, or design verification\nSolid understanding of digital ASIC design and strong familiarity with the full chip development cycle\nSystem-level thinking - ability to reason across hardware/software boundaries and understand how switch architecture impacts end-to-end performance\nComfortable navigating between RTL, models, and system software to drive architectural clarity\nWays to Stand Out from the Crowd:\nDeep knowledge of networking and compute systems\nHands-on experience in system architecture across domains such as networking, CPUs, GPUs, or memory subsystems\nBackground in in-network computing or data-path acceleration\nNVIDIA has some of the most forward-thinking and talented people in the world working for us. If you're creative and autonomous, we want to hear from you. It’s not just technology though! It is our people, some of the brightest in the world, and our company diverse culture make NVIDIA one of the most fun, innovative and dynamic places to work in the world! At the center of NVIDIA's culture are our core values like innovation, excellence and determination and team, that guide us to be the best we can be.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2857,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":7,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Processors, MCUs & AI Chips","Servers & Data Center Hardware","Computer Components","AI Chips & Accelerators"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-06T12:50:21Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":54,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.599,"p_room":0.9,"age_days":15,"expected_fill_days":35,"reasons":["conf:1","stale_co","velocity","win:mid","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-22T06:10:10Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/nvidia-senior-chip-architect-next-gen-networking","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/nvidia-senior-chip-architect-next-gen-networking.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-23T01:45:02Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2939,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-24T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":6},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=6"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fnvidia-senior-chip-architect-next-gen-networking"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fnvidia-senior-chip-architect-next-gen-networking"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fnvidia-senior-chip-architect-next-gen-networking"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/nvidia-senior-chip-architect-next-gen-networking\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fnvidia-senior-chip-architect-next-gen-networking"}]}
