Job description
The role involves working with NVIDIA's GeForce NOW team to build and develop a Kubernetes-native deployment platform. Engineers will focus on creating backend microservices and APIs that enhance the deployment process and improve developer self-service tools. The team emphasizes automation and reliability, ensuring zero-downtime rollouts and accurate staging environments. Candidates will be expected to leverage their expertise in cloud infrastructure and DevOps to support a robust gaming experience.
Requirements
- Bachelor or higher degree in computer science, engineering, or equivalent experience.
- 10+ years of experience in Cloud Infrastructure and DevOps, with deep expertise in Kubernetes.
- Expertise in GitOps, production-grade cloud-native CI/CD pipelines, and security hardening.
- Proficiency in Flux CD or Argo CD, GitLab CI, and Jenkins.
- Experience with Go or Python for control plane development.
- Experience handling Vault, Terraform, Ansible, and Helm in both on-premises and cloud environments.
- Experience in developing and scaling RESTful, gRPC, MCP APIs and backend services.
- Experience running hybrid multi-cloud and bare-metal at production scale.
Responsibilities
- Build and develop backend microservices and REST/gRPC/MCP APIs that power the deployment platform.
- Extend the platform with dynamic delivery, automatic rollback, drift detection, and automated zone bootstrapping.
- Build and stabilize prod-like staging environments/zones to catch regressions early.
- Develop and sustain GitOps pipelines across on-premises and Nvidia GFN Cloud/AWS/Azure/GCP.
- Develop Kubernetes CRDs and operators in Go for scheduling, auto-scaling, and compliance.
- Build backend integrations and control-plane services connecting CI/CD, observability, and automation systems.
- Automate dedicated hardware and multiple cloud platform configurations using Terraform, Ansible, and Vault.
- Implement monitoring solutions including Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, and ELK.
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.
