Job description

The Linux Systems Engineer will join the Infrastructure Engineering team at NVIDIA, focusing on supporting high-performance EDA compute farms. This role involves designing, deploying, and maintaining enterprise-grade Linux environments optimized for EDA workloads. The engineer will lead automation initiatives and develop robust tooling to ensure a highly available and scalable infrastructure. Candidates should have a passion for technology and a strong background in Linux systems engineering.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of deep systems engineering experience working with RPM-based Linux distributions.
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent work experience.
  • Strong track record of automating end-to-end multi-tier infrastructure configurations.
  • Deep understanding of virtualization and container internals, including Docker and Kubernetes.
  • Proficiency in at least one modern scripting language such as Python, Bash, or Go.
  • Deep operational understanding of OSI layers and modern networking.

Responsibilities

  • Maintain, tune, and secure mission-critical Linux operating systems across production and non-production environments.
  • Lead infrastructure configuration management and continuous deployment workflows using Infrastructure as Code.
  • Write high-quality, maintainable code to automate repetitive operational tasks.
  • Manage Linux Naming Services and networked storage environments to support high-performance EDA workloads.

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.
