NVIDIA has continuously reinvented itself over two decades. Our invention of the GPU in 1999 sparked the growth of the PC gaming market, redefined modern computer graphics, and revolutionized parallel computing. More recently, GPU deep learning ignited modern AI - the next era of computing. NVIDIA is a “learning machine” that constantly evolves by adapting to new opportunities that are hard to solve, that only we can tackle, and that matter to the world. We are looking for a Microfluidics Summer Intern for our Advanced Data Center Development Group to contribute to ongoing projects in the field of microfluidics for high-power GPU cooling. The intern will have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in designing, fabricating, and testing microfluidic cooling solutions. This position is ideal for individuals with a background in engineering who are eager to apply their knowledge to real-world applications in microfluidicsWhat you will be doing:Assist in the design of microfluidic solutions for GPU cooling.Collaborate closely with other Summer interns tasked with modelling of the microfluidic cooling solutions.Work in the laboratory to fabricate microfluidic devices using various techniques, including soft lithography, micro-milling, and 3D printing. Collaborate with the team to troubleshoot and refine fabrication processes.Conduct detailed experiments to characterize the performance of microfluidically-cooled GPUs running in operational servers.Analyze experimental data and contribute to the interpretation of results and optimization of the cooling solutions.Maintain accurate and detailed records of experimental procedures, results, and observations.Prepare regular reports and presentations summarizing findings for internal use. Participate in team meetings to discuss progress, challenges, and potential solutions.Stay informed about the latest developments in microfluidics by conducting literature reviews and incorporate relevant findings into ongoing projects and discussions.What we need to see:Pursuing a Master's or Ph.D. program in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related field.Excellent heat transfer and fluid mechanics fundamentals.Strong understanding of microfluidic principles and devices.Proficiency with CAD software for device design, e.g., Creo or SolidWorks.Self-starter with the ability to work in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.Effective communication and teamwork skills.Ways to stand out from the crowd:Basic understanding of server layout and operations.Hands-on experience with microfabrication techniques.Proficiency with industry-standard computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools such as IcePak or Fluent.The hourly rate for our interns is 19 USD - 93 USD. Our internship hourly rates are a standard pay determined based on the position and your location, year in school, degree, and experience.You will also be eligible for Intern benefits. NVIDIA accepts applications on an ongoing basis. NVIDIA is committed to fostering a diverse work environment and proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
