Senior Manager, GPU Cloud Infrastructure - GeForce NOW

Details

GeForce NOW is a cloud gaming platform that uses NVIDIA data centers to stream games at high resolution and frame rates across devices, including smartphones and VR headsets.

The Senior Manager will lead the design, scaling, and operations of high-performance networking for GPU-based cloud infrastructure. The role supports cloud gaming workloads, AI/ML training, and inference platforms by delivering ultra-low-latency, high-throughput, and highly reliable interconnects across data centers and cloud environments.

Responsibilities

• Build and mentor a specialized team of network architects focused on high-performance GPU infrastructure.
• Oversee intra-cluster and inter-cluster connectivity using RoCE, Ethernet-based AI fabrics, and high-bandwidth data center interconnects.
• Drive technical tuning to reduce latency and jitter, increase throughput, and implement congestion-control and packet-loss mitigation strategies.
• Define networking roadmaps supporting gaming, AI/ML training, and real-time inference at scale.
• Engage with ISPs to optimize low-latency edge networks and ensure seamless connections between data centers and end clients.
• Implement Infrastructure as Code and observability frameworks for automated provisioning, scaling, and real-time cluster health monitoring.
• Work with AI platform teams, hardware vendors, and SRE groups to influence technology direction and vendor selection.
• Establish fault-tolerance protocols and lead incident response and root-cause analysis for complex network issues.

Requirements

• 12+ years of experience in networking, cloud infrastructure, or distributed systems, including 5+ years directly managing technical teams.
• Mastery of data center networking, including Clos/spine-leaf architectures and high-performance fabrics such as RDMA, RoCE, or InfiniBand.
• Hands-on experience with BGP, EVPN/VXLAN, and kernel-level development for routing and switching.
• Experience using Ansible or Terraform for infrastructure automation and monitoring tools such as Prometheus and Grafana.
• Practical experience designing large-scale configurations using SR-IOV, Xen virtualization, or Open vSwitch.
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related engineering field, or equivalent experience.
• Ability to ensure infrastructure meets rigorous internal policies and regulatory standards such as GDPR.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience managing networking for large-scale GPU clusters or hyperscale cloud environments.
• Familiarity with optical networking and high-speed 400G or 800G interconnects.
• Experience debugging and improving code for Mellanox/Cumulus Linux or managing Palo Alto and Netscaler appliances.
• Strong understanding of streaming telemetry and operational signals, including SNMP and Syslog.
• Relevant certifications such as CCIE or specialized cloud networking designations.

Benefits

NVIDIA offers competitive salaries, equity, and a generous benefits package. The base salary range is USD 256,000–414,000, determined by location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions.
