Principal Distributed Filesystem Architect

Details

NVIDIA’s Hardware Infrastructure organization develops, deploys, and runs engineering infrastructure on large-scale, distributed cloud computing systems with 1000s of heterogeneous servers and petabytes of high-performance shared storage. We are looking for a highly motivated Principal Architect to lead the development and deployment of large-scale distributed file system solutions for NVIDIA's world-wide design engineering teams.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with HW and SW engineering teams to define a vision and roadmap for distributed storage systems.
• Lead teams to craft and develop scalable, distributed, high-performance Linux filesystems in C++ using FUSE.
• Work closely with team members and internal customers to optimize workflow efficiency and scalability.
• Drive improvements to SW design and test processes to improve velocity and deliver very high production quality.
• Directly contribute to the overall quality of and improve time to market for our next generation products and technologies.

Requirements

• Ability to drive architectural design decisions from data and estimates to balance cost, performance, reliability, and scalability to meet defined goals.
• Architectural knowledge to lead distributed teams developing advanced multi-threaded C/C++ projects.
• Experience with Linux FUSE file system programming, particularly the automounter components and resource management features.
• Significant prior architectural experience with networked distributed systems.
• Ability to collaborate with partners and customers to align on testing and adoption plans.
• Flexibility/adaptability for working in a fast-paced environment with exciting problems to solve.
• MS (preferred) or BS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
