Software Architect

Overview

• NVIDIA has been transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, accelerated computing, and AI for more than 25 years.
• Today, we are defining the next era of computing, where AI datacenters, GPUs, networking, and accelerated infrastructure work together as one system.
• We are looking for an outstanding engineer to join our software architecture group and help shape the next generation of NVIDIA networking products, SmartNICs, and DPUs.
• In this role, you will work closely with system architects, software/firmware engineers, hardware designers and product stakeholders to define component-level and system-level solutions for advanced datacenter platforms.
• You will join a team working at the intersection of AI networking, virtualization, operating systems, security, management, and programmable acceleration.
• Our mission is to push the boundaries of modern datacenter infrastructure and help define the platforms of tomorrow.
• What You’ll Be Doing: Work with architects and engineers to define software architecture for NVIDIA networking devices, SmartNICs, and DPUs.
• Analyze system requirements across networking protocols, virtualization, operating systems, security, management, and services.
• Research new ideas, evaluate design alternatives, and build proof-of-concept models, simulations, and prototypes.
• Collaborate with software, firmware, and hardware teams on HW/SW co-design, performance, scale, and resource-utilization challenges.
• Learn complex datacenter technologies and turn them into clear architecture proposals, design documents, and technical presentations.
• What We Need To See: Engineer holding a B.Sc.
• in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• 1+ years of relevant experience Proven strong programming skills, in C/C++, preferably for large and complex embedded systems.
• Solid understanding of operating systems, multi-threading, computer architecture, and software fundamentals.
• Curiosity and ability to learn new technologies quickly, investigate deeply, and work through ambiguous problems.
• Independent problem solver who also works well in a team environment.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills.
• Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd: Knowledge of networking protocols such as Ethernet, InfiniBand, RDMA, RoCE, TCP/IP, or congestion control.
• Experience with Linux, Linux kernel, device drivers, embedded systems, or system software.
• Experience building simulations, performance models, prototypes, or proof-of-concept software.
• Exposure to virtualization, security, programmable acceleration, SmartNICs, DPUs, or DOCA.
• Open-source contribution, previous internship experience, or hands-on project work in relevant technical domains.
• NVIDIA is widely considered one of the technology world’s most desirable employers.
• We are made up of forward-thinking, hardworking people who are passionate about solving some of the world’s most important computing challenges.
• We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
