The role involves creating optimized QoS and routing algorithms for cloud-based streaming to enhance user experience. The ideal candidate will collaborate with network architects and partners to innovate and improve streaming technology. This position requires a strong background in networking and software development, along with a passion for advancing streaming technology.
Requirements
- PhD or Master’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, EE, or a closely related field.
- 10+ years of experience in networking and software development.
- Fluent in L2, L3 networking stacks as well as IP routing, multicast, QoS, and transport layer protocols.
- Hands-on experience with networking protocols and concepts, including BGP, RTP, QUIC, SCTP, TLS, STUN, TURN, and ICE.
- Familiarity with congestion control, buffer bloat, active queue management methods, and concurrent traffic handling.
- Hands-on experience with programming in C++ and Python, socket programming, multi-threaded systems, and real-time media applications.
Responsibilities
- Collaborate with data center network/security architects and vendor partners to build the next generation of streaming technology for cloud-based ultra-low-latency applications.
- Research, develop, and innovate network routing and QoS algorithms for secure ultra-low streaming and improve user experience.
- Collaborate with partners to build the next generation of networking gear optimized for low-latency streaming.
- Use data analytics to measure user experience and develop features to grow the satisfied user base.
- Define, implement, and improve industry-leading KPIs for networking, streaming quality, latency, and stutter.
- Generate networking models that simulate various real-life end-user networks.
Benefits
- Employees at NVIDIA are often offered comprehensive, day-one benefits—including medical, dental, and vision coverage with HSA support, life and disability insurance, an Employee Assistance Program, and a 401(k) with auto-enrollment. Many roles also have generous time off and holidays, donation matching (up to $10,000), and a wide menu of extras like FSAs, commuter benefits, legal and identity-theft protection, pet insurance, and wellness discounts.
