CAD Production Engineer, Library Builds

Join NVIDIA’s Advanced Technology Group—a fast paced team that crafts the next generation of process technologies for AI, HPC, automotive, and graphics. In this role, you will lead execution of the library build and qualification pipeline across multiple projects—tracking status end-to-end, triaging issues, and driving cross-team closure to deliver verified library collateral on schedule. This is not a role focused on writing large EDA flows; it is focused on build operations, technical triage, release readiness, and continuous improvement through targeted automation and better observability.

What you'll be doing:

• Partner with library, design-enablement, ASIC, and physical design teams to plan, track, and deliver library collateral (views, QA, release notes) across multiple programs

• Own daily build operations: monitor build health, triage failures, identify blockers/slowness, and drive fixes with the right owners (internal developers, EDA/IT, and design teams)

• Maintain clear project status (dashboards), run build/release reviews, assign action items, and ensure follow-through to meet milestones

• Perform technical debug/first-level investigation (logs, regressions, environment changes, tool/version updates) and communicate findings with clear, actionable context. Prevent issues through proactive risk management

• Drive continuous improvement: metrics (cycle time/failure rate), automation scripts, tool integrations, compute/resource usage improvements—partnering with infra/tool owners as needed

What we need to see:

• B.S. or M.S. in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or equivalent experience)

• 5+ years in EDA infrastructure, design enablement, library CAD, or build/release operations for silicon design flows

• Demonstrated ability to drive multi-team execution: scheduling, risk tracking, communication, and closing action items

• Comfortable reading build logs and debugging issues across tools/environments; able to do light-to-medium scripting (e.g., Perl/Python/Shell) to automate checks and improve observability

• Experience with version control and issue tracking; databases/dashboards a plus

• A passion for improving development flows and VLSI library quality is a must!

At NVIDIA, you’ll have access to internal courses, mentorship programs, tech conferences, and stretch assignments—empowering you to expand your expertise. We value diverse perspectives, relentless curiosity, and one-team determination. Join us, and let’s invent the future together.
