Details

NVIDIA has continuously reinvented itself over two decades. The invention of the GPU in 1999 sparked the growth of PC gaming, redefined modern computer graphics, and revolutionized parallel computing. More recently, GPU deep learning ignited modern AI—the next era of computing.

Join NVIDIA's Test Solutions Group and help create the reliable test infrastructure that enables the next generation of Data Center products. This role will build the infrastructure foundation for manufacturing systems supporting board and system products at Contract Manufacturer sites. You will apply systems, hardware, software, and automation expertise to ensure test environments are reliable, scalable, secure, and ready for high-volume manufacturing.

You will own the engineering of test-dedicated infrastructure, including tester provisioning and configuration, test compute and storage, automation, logging, monitoring, DHCP requirements, and incident recovery, while partnering with Contract Manufacturer site operations and IT teams on shared dependencies.

Responsibilities

Build and operate the initial Contract Manufacturer test infrastructure service stack, including test compute, storage, tester provisioning, configuration, automation scripts, DHCP, log collection, diagnostic logs, and test-related file transfer.
Establish standards for tester images, configuration baselines, inventory, naming, access, patching, and lifecycle management.
Automate tester provisioning, configuration, recovery, health checks, and log collection using infrastructure-as-code and configuration-management tools.
Develop service runbooks, monitoring dashboards, alerts, incident procedures, and paths for handling blocking issues for each supported service.
Partner with Contract Manufacturer site operations on physical deployment, break/fix, remote access, rack-and-stack, power, and equipment replacement.
Work with IT teams to ensure test infrastructure follows enterprise identity and access, network, security, DNS, patching, backup, and hardware standards.
Identify capacity, reliability, security, and operational risks, and drive corrective actions before they affect test throughput.

Requirements

8 or more years of experience in infrastructure engineering, systems engineering, test engineering, lab operations, or technical operations.
Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.
Strong hands-on Linux administration and problem-solving skills.
Experience with servers, storage, networking fundamentals, remote-management controllers, and hardware or lab environments.
Experience with automation and configuration management, such as Python, Bash, Ansible, Terraform, and CI/CD, or equivalent technologies.
Experience with logging, monitoring, alerting, incident response, and root-cause analysis.
Ability to work independently across distributed teams, Contract Manufacturer partners, and IT organizations.
Clear written communication and strong operational rigor.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience supporting hardware validation, factory or Contract Manufacturer operations, data centers, or large-scale test labs.
Experience with GPU or server platforms, DHCP/DNS, PXE boot, golden images, KVM or console systems, and asset management.
Familiarity with storage systems, high-speed networking, observability platforms, and security tooling.
Experience building a new operational capability or taking ambiguous infrastructure ownership from multiple teams.

Compensation and Benefits

The expected base salary ranges for this position are:

$152,000–$253,000 USD for Level 4
$184,000–$287,500 USD for Level 5

Base salary will be determined based on location, experience, and other objective job-related factors. The role also includes eligibility for equity and benefits.

Applications will be accepted at least until November 6, 2026. This posting is for an existing vacancy. NVIDIA uses AI tools in its recruiting processes and is an equal opportunity employer.
