When Sakeena Fiza describes her work as a validation engineer at NVIDIA, she does so in terms more befitting a detective story than a world-class engineering lab.
Key facts
- At NVIDIA, the systems Fiza and her colleagues in the data center systems engineering lab investigate are the engines of the AI era
- One of Fiza’s earliest and most enduring memories of working at NVIDIA is the collective joy she experienced when she saw the NVIDIA Rubin GPU working for the first time at a system level
- For Fiza, the pressure of the work is inseparable from the pleasure of it

Summary
“Validation engineers look in the shadows and shine a light into every corner,” Fiza said. “I always like to think of it as a mystery to solve,” she said. At NVIDIA, the systems Fiza and her colleagues in the data center systems engineering lab investigate are the engines of the AI era. Components are brought up one by one, boards are integrated, firmware and software teams swarm, and engineers watch for the first signs of life.
