NVIDIA is seeking a skilled individual to join their platform SWQA team, focusing on the development and execution of test plans for their HGX/DGX/MGX platforms. The role requires strong technical expertise in server integration, Linux systems, and automation processes.

This position emphasizes continuous process improvement and collaboration within an agile software development team.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's Degree in a STEM field or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years of proven experience or a master's degree.
  • Strong experience in OS and server level automation, CI/CD processes, and DevOps using Python, SHELL, Ansible, Jenkins, C/C++, Java, and JavaScript.
  • Extensive troubleshooting and debugging experience in Linux environments such as Ubuntu, RedHat, CentOS, SuSE, and Fedora.
  • Good knowledge and hands-on experience in AI tools/frameworks like TensorFlow and Pytorch, as well as NLP and LLM benchmarking.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and execute test plans for NVIDIA HGX/DGX/MGX platforms on servers, OS, firmware, and CUDA software stack.
  • Install and test various systems, including OS, server firmware, and software stack.
  • Drive support for root cause analysis on reliability and validation test failures.
  • Build and develop server and OS level automation frameworks and tests.
  • Review partner and supplier test results and prescribe additional reliability testing as needed.

  • 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.
