Details

NVIDIA is searching for world-class software engineers to join the System Software for Cuda Compute driver team. This team develops and supports NVIDIA's kernel level drivers for supporting Cuda, especially on our AI, Cloud and Data Center product line-ups. This product line-up includes full system products such as the DGX platform, modular components such as MGX and stand-alone GPU boards. At the heart of all these products is the GPU itself, driven by low level embedded processors and drivers at kernel level, where this team lives.

We are a very dynamic team with many responsibilities. We work with sister software teams on developing features for upcoming generations of products. We work with partners on deploying new products, maintaining existing products, and developing requested improvements. We work with hardware and architecture on the future direction of existing and new features. These responsibilities evolve over time, resulting in a rich engineering experience and career.

Responsibilities

As a Compute Systems Software Engineer at NVIDIA, you will work on software design for the next generation Compute GPU solutions:

  • Designing kernel drivers and embedded software for our Data Center products.
  • Developing and maintaining SW technologies targeted at enabling and supporting NVIDIA's GPU hardware on both Linux and Windows based operating systems (current and future) ensuring optimum performance and feature set.
  • Focusing on cross platform implementation and supporting new HW architectures including, but not limited to, features such as clocks, thermal and power, telemetry, device initialization, memory management, performance optimization, device management (and reset) as well as embedded software development.
  • This role works closely with other internal worldwide teams around software, hardware, architecture, OEM support.

Requirements

  • B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years "hands on" experience developing low level device drivers, especially for the Linux OS.
  • Strong software engineering skills combined with a motivation to solve hard problems is a must.
  • Strong programming skills in C and C++.
  • Detailed knowledge of operating system internals and various device driver models.
  • Low-level operating system knowledge.
  • Strong English written and oral communication skills to facilitate collaboration with other engineers (worldwide).
  • Self-motivated, positive attitude, and ability to thrive in team environment yet also must be able to work independently with minimal direction.
  • Windows operating systems experience is a plus.
