• Work with R&D teams to develop bug fixes, workarounds, and solutions for critical customers using NVIDIA's network technologies

• Become an authority in NVIDIA network technologies used in AI clusters such as Infiniband, NVLink, and Spectrum-X

• Analyze network performance metrics and make tuning recommendations for high-performance, lossless networks

• Develop support and analysis tools to help analyze and root cause field issues

• Daily use of ground breaking AI tools for software development, log and trace analysis, and source code debugging

• Occasional work on weekends or holidays to support customers

What we need to see:

• Minimum of a BS in Computer, Electrical, or Software Engineering (or equivalent experience)

• 8+ years of experience in C programming in Linux and embedded systems

• Proficiency in Python

• 8+ years of experience developing software for one or more of the following:

• Linux NIC drivers, switch ASICs and SDKs, embedded network device firmware, Linux based network equipment (routers, switches, gateways, etc), network operating systems, virtual routers, SDN stacks, virtual switching, DPDK, SRIOV stacks

• At least 3 years of experience directly supporting end-customers, partners, or integrators for network equipment and infrastructures

• Strong system software (firmware, BIOS, kernel, driver, operating system) expertise

• Professional-level communication skills, including adjusting communication to the technical level of the audience, and staying calm and focused in negative situations.

• Passion for learning innovative tech and motivation to work hard on ground-breaking products

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• Background with AI infrastructure and HPC networking

• Experience programming switch and NIC ASICs and SDKs

• Experience with Infiniband or other non-Ethernet network technologies
