Job description

NVIDIA is seeking a Senior System Architect to define and validate enterprise AI factory reference architectures. This role combines product strategy, system architecture, and hands-on infrastructure validation to create repeatable blueprints for enterprises. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in data center architecture and a strong understanding of accelerated computing and AI/ML operations. This position requires translating customer needs into clear architecture patterns and validation plans.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.
  • 12+ years of software or infrastructure architecture experience.
  • 3+ years of experience with micro-services architectures.
  • Experience with system architecture, performance, and networking in distributed solutions.
  • Proven experience designing, building, or maintaining complex AI, HPC, or cloud-native infrastructure.
  • Strong understanding of GPU-accelerated systems and data center deployment realities.
  • Deep networking knowledge across various technologies including Ethernet and InfiniBand.
  • Proficiency in modern integration patterns and container orchestration.

Responsibilities

  • Define and drive full-stack enterprise AI factory baseline architectures.
  • Architect reference builds for end-to-end software systems and platforms.
  • Work with cross-functional teams to develop product direction and execution plans.
  • Develop and validate scalable cluster designs for enterprise AI/ML systems.
  • Evaluate tradeoffs across various operational factors.
  • Build and detail comprehensive API strategies and middleware integrations.
  • Integrate with non-cloud technologies and third-party vendor products.

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. Optional programs can include student-loan and home-purchase support, plus family care resources and expert medical services.
