Santa Clara, CAPosted Mar 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I had a one-hour interview that focused on ASIC spice correlation and other related topics.

The interviewer didn’t seem fully experienced, and the interaction felt like they were looking for a single “correct” answer rather than being open to my own perspective and experience.

I stayed calm and didn’t try to argue, even though I was a little surprised that I was being interviewed by someone who appeared less knowledgeable than I was about parts of NVIDIA’s domain.

I didn’t get an offer. The reflection I left with was that the technical discussion didn’t feel like a two-way evaluation—it felt constrained by expectations I couldn’t align with.
