Hi all, I am currently in Microsoft, Bay Area, USA, as a Hardware ASIC Design Engineer. Because of family reasons, I am contemplating a move to India and am in preliminary talks with the hardware teams at Nvidia in Bengaluru, India. (I was previously at Nvidia and fortunately still in touch with contacts in India.) While it's still in pipeline, I'd like to know what compensation range I could expect? Role: RTL Design. Level: Late IC3 or early IC4. Thanks! Current TC: $250k YoE: MS + 4.5 years #hardware #semiconductor #nvidia #india #bengaluru #bangalore
Heard microsoft planning to open shop in Bengaluru, talk to ur manager or skip and see if u can work remotely for a while and then join the group in BLR
That's true. (Not that I have anything against MS) I feel Nvidia has more choice of well established HW teams in BLR so eventually I'd want to move there.
U can take ur US unvested RSUs and move to BLR. Then join Nvidia after a while so u can optimize better on TC
Nvda blr doesn't give ic4 for 4 yoe. It will cause huge imbalance in existing teams where folks work for avg 8-9 yrs to reach ic4 level.
Yeah, call it wishful thinking ๐ Any insights into the IC3 numbers? Thanks!
OP Were you able to get the offer ? If still waiting: All the best :)
Not yet. If it materializes, it'll probably be a few months down the line.
Aaah okay All the very best ๐
Any insights available by now?
Hey op.... what offer did you get?
Update: I joined NV USA and took a transfer to India. The base offered was INR 40.5 LPA at IC4 with 4.5 YoE.
That's an excellent offer! What's the tc come up to?
Yeah, thanks! Around 70 LPA (But that's considering the initial RSU grant made in the US)
Hey OP... Am contemplating a move too. What was the conversion factor from US to India (base salary) ?
+1 for the question.

What do you think is wrong with a kid who got rejected by 9 colleges?
Move to Nvidia US and transfer to India. Keep the RSUโs.
Haha, that's the dream!
No that can very much be done.
