Job description

This role focuses on building a platform for long-running autonomous agents within NVIDIA's enterprise environment. The team is responsible for creating the foundational constructs that enable agents to operate securely and efficiently across various systems. The platform aims to streamline agent development and ensure safety and reliability in production. Candidates will work on designing blueprints, safety harnesses, and orchestration mechanisms for these agents.

Requirements

  • BS or MS in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field or equivalent experience
  • 12+ years building distributed systems, infrastructure, or developer platforms at scale
  • Hands-on experience building agents on a harness, exposing them as APIs, and shipping them with CI/CD
  • Experience deploying and operating long-running services on container orchestration platforms
  • Experience with the building blocks of scalable systems: messaging, caching, and durable storage
  • Proficiency in Python, Go, Rust, or similar

Responsibilities

  • Design agent blueprints with clean interfaces for authorization, sandbox, memory, observability, and skills.
  • Build the runtime safety harness including a policy engine that checks every action before it runs.
  • Enable composing and orchestrating agents with skills as first-class units and support for multi-agent orchestration.
  • Broker credentials for multi-agent systems to authenticate and authorize without touching secrets.
  • Provide checkpoint and recovery mechanisms for agents to resume cleanly after a crash or restart.
  • Instrument observability and evaluation that span harnesses and turn signals into insights for improvement.
  • Participate in keeping the platform healthy and reliable, including taking part in an on-call rotation.

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.
