Details

NVIDIA’s 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 deep learning — the next era of computing — with the GPU acting as the brain of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can perceive and understand the world. Today, we are increasingly known as “the AI computing company.” We’re looking to grow our company and establish teams with the most thoughtful people in the world. NVIDIA GH200 superchip provides performance and productivity required for strong scaling for HPC and generative AI workload. Scale out is inherent to the design of this massive superchip. We are looking for expert engineers to come and help design rack-level solutions for next generation scaling AI supercomputing platforms.
