Job description

As a member of the Hardware Infrastructure EDA Compute team, you will focus on optimizing and supporting workload scheduling systems that enhance design velocity and infrastructure efficiency. The role requires operational precision and the development of resource management solutions to meet evolving compute demands. You will also drive improvements in observability, service reliability, and automation within the EDA compute environment. This position is crucial for ensuring that the infrastructure remains resilient and aligned with long-term engineering needs.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent experience
  • Minimum 5+ years of experience operating and supporting large-scale Linux-based compute infrastructure
  • Strong hands-on experience supporting and tuning job scheduling systems (LSF, Slurm, etc.) in HPC or silicon design environments
  • Proficiency in Linux systems administration (CentOS/RHEL)
  • Strong problem solving skills and the ability to independently analyze complex system behavior under load
  • Clear and effective communication skills, including the ability to articulate technical tradeoffs and reliability metrics to engineering stakeholders

Responsibilities

  • Manage, scale, and optimize job scheduling systems in a large-scale, multi-site environment supporting EDA and other compute-intensive workloads
  • Analyze scheduler and infrastructure performance data to identify systemic bottlenecks and drive measurable improvements in utilization, throughput, and turnaround time
  • Lead problem solving across scheduler, OS, and workload layers, ensuring timely resolution of service-impacting issues
  • Identify recurring operational challenges and implement targeted automation or process improvements to reduce manual effort and prevent repeat incidents
  • Help define and track reliable metrics and SLOs for service performance and reliability, partnering with customers to ensure expectations are realistic and measurable
  • Contribute to operational standards, documentation, and best practices to improve consistency across sites
  • Partner directly with customer teams to clarify requirements, translate technical tradeoffs, and drive issues to closure

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.
