Details

NVIDIA is at the forefront of innovations in Artificial Intelligence, High-Performance Computing, and Visualization. Our invention—the GPU—functions as the visual cortex of modern computing and is central to groundbreaking applications from generative AI to autonomous vehicles. We are now looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help accelerate the next era of machine learning innovation.

In this role, you will propose and implement engineering solutions to ensure delivery of functional, reliable, secure, and performance-optimal GPU clusters to internal researchers, enable them to focus on training and development by reducing operational disruption and overhead, and empower them for self-service continuous improvement on reliability, operational excellence, and performance. Your work will empower scientists and engineers to train, fine-tune, and deploy the most advanced ML models on some of the world’s most powerful GPU systems.

Responsibilities

  • Work with coworkers across the AI Platform organization to understand pain points of validating, monitoring, and operating GPU clusters at scale.
  • Design, develop, and maintain engineering solutions to solve those pain points systematically.
  • Research traditional AIOps and the emerging Agentic AI, and leverage it to further reduce operational toil.
  • Participate in on-call support for systems and platforms built and owned by the team.

Requirements

  • BS/MS in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • 8+ years in software/platform engineering, including 3+ years in ML infrastructure or distributed systems.
  • Experience in the software development lifecycle on Linux-based platforms.
  • Strong coding skills in languages such as Python, C++ or Rust.
  • Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, GitLab CI, and automated deployments.
  • Experience with AIOps or Agentic AI and applying it successfully in production environments.

Ways To Stand Out

  • Proficiency with full-stack development: relational data modeling, DB optimization, REST API semantics, JavaScript, CSS, providing API as a service.
  • Passion for building developer-centric platforms with great UX and strong operational reliability.
  • Experience running Slurm or custom scheduling frameworks in production ML environments.
  • Familiarity with GPU computing, Linux systems internals, and performance tuning at scale.

Compensation & Other Details

  • Base salary ranges by level:
    • Level 4: 184,000 USD - 287,500 USD
    • Level 5: 224,000 USD - 356,500 USD
  • You will also be eligible for equity and benefits (link provided by employer).
  • Applications for this job will be accepted at least until October 6, 2025.
