Job description

NVIDIA is seeking a Senior Staff Software Engineer to join their Enterprise AI team, which focuses on developing production-grade AI applications and platforms across various environments. This role emphasizes technical leadership and full-stack engineering expertise to deliver reliable and scalable AI products. The engineer will work closely with product managers, designers, and researchers to ensure high-quality software and operational excellence. This position is not research-focused but aims to transform AI prototypes into trusted products used at scale.

Requirements

  • BS, MS, or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • 10+ years of experience designing, building, and operating large-scale production software systems.
  • Strong full-stack development experience spanning modern frontend technologies, backend services, APIs, and distributed systems.
  • Demonstrated expertise in cloud-native architectures and scalable platform infrastructure.
  • Deep knowledge of software quality, testing, observability, release engineering, and performance optimization.
  • Experience building or operating AI-powered applications using relevant technologies.
  • Proven ability to influence technical direction across teams through strong architectural judgment.

Responsibilities

  • Architect and deliver production AI applications across desktop, mobile, web, and cloud platforms.
  • Establish engineering excellence for AI products through robust testing strategies and operational readiness.
  • Build shared AI foundations including agent orchestration and internal frameworks.
  • Operationalize NVIDIA AI technologies in enterprise production environments.
  • Partner closely with product managers, designers, and infrastructure teams to deliver measurable business impact.

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.
