NVIDIA NVIDIA · Semiconductors · Santa Clara, CA +1 · Remote

NVIDIA is seeking a Principal Platform Software Engineer to design and drive next-generation fleet management solutions for scaling AI infrastructure using GPUs and Grace superchips. The role involves architecture, implementation, testing, and customer education for fleet health monitoring and fault remediation at scale.

What you'd actually do

  1. Drive next generation fleet management solutions for scaling AI infrastructure using GPUs and Grace solution from Nvidia. Work with customers, product management and other architects to narrow down on requirements for implementation to ensure speed of light product development.
  2. Bring up clarity on architecture for fleet health monitoring and fault-remediation solution at scale. Work with customers and other architects, understand their requirements on health monitoring, making best use of available capabilities in-band as well as out of band. Detailed architecture, do POCs to validate architecture.
  3. Educate customers about product architecture and take feedback to make necessary changes. Write architecture specs, design documents and own end to end delivery of product by working across the teams. Do code review for the code produced because of architecture specs.
  4. Ensure product is properly tested by working with the development team to enhance unit testing and proper test plan in place.
  5. Drive product life cycles with QA teams to productize the code and be responsible as a product owner.
