What we need to see:

M.S., or PhD in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience). 6+ years of relevant work experience

Deep knowledge of AI workloads, frameworks, and performance characteristics.

Experience building tools, workflows, or infrastructure used by other engineers.

Strong software development skills (Python, C++ preferred).

Ability to translate user requirements into scalable tooling solutions.

Up to date with AI-enabled tooling for software development and performance analysis.

Strong interpersonal skills for understanding engineer difficulties and working across multi-functional teams.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

Experience profiling or optimizing AI training or inference pipelines at scale

Background building developer tools or platforms for ML engineers

Contributions to open-source AI tooling or frameworks

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 168,000 USD - 270,250 USD for Level 4, and 200,000 USD - 322,000 USD for Level 5.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits (https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/benefits/) .
