- 6+ overall years of software development experience, including 3+ years in technical leadership or engineering management.
- Strong background in C/C++ software design and development; proficiency in Python is a plus.
- Hands-on experience with GPU programming (CUDA, Triton, CUTLASS) and performance optimization.
- Proven record of deploying or optimizing deep learning models in production environments.
- Experience leading teams using Agile or collaborative software development practices.
Responsibilities
- Lead, mentor, and scale a high-performing engineering team focused on deep learning inference and GPU-accelerated software.
- Drive the strategy, roadmap, and execution of NVIDIA’s inference frameworks engineering, focusing on Client AI.
- Partner with internal compiler, libraries, and research teams to deliver end-to-end optimized inference pipelines across NVIDIA accelerators.
- Oversee performance tuning, profiling, and optimization of large-scale models for LLM, multimodal, and generative AI applications.
- Guide engineers in adopting best practices for CUDA, Triton, CUTLASS, and multi-GPU communications (NIXL, NCCL, NVSHMEM).
- Represent the team in roadmap and planning discussions, ensuring alignment with NVIDIA’s broader AI and software strategies.
- Foster a culture of technical excellence, open collaboration, and continuous innovation.
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.
