NVIDIA is an American technology company founded in 1993 that invented the graphics processing unit and has become the dominant supplier of accelerated computing platforms for artificial intelligence. Its portfolio spans data centre GPUs and systems built on the Hopper and Blackwell architectures, GeForce consumer graphics, automotive and robotics platforms, high-speed networking acquired with Mellanox, and the CUDA software stack that binds the ecosystem together. Headquartered in Santa Clara, California, the company sells to cloud providers, enterprises, research institutions and gamers worldwide and is one of the most valuable listed businesses on the Nasdaq.

We are seeking a Sr System Software Engineer to help us build out our scientific computing platform workflows on Cloud. This Cloud based scientific computing cloud platform enables Physics based Numerical Simulation Solvers, AI based Training, Inference and Visualization workflow for physical science and engineering problems.

Those applications include Weather prediction, Climate modeling, Industrial design and Digital twins simulation in various domains e.g Aerospace, Automotive, Sports, Renewable energy, Bio-medical and many more. Are you passionate about solving rewarding problems at scale? Do you enjoy crafting robust, critical services for compute and data intensive workload? If so, you may be a phenomenal fit for our team!

What you’ll be doing:

  • Design services and take ownership of underlying cloud infrastructure for physics informed and data driven scientific workflows

  • Design novel algorithms and actively engage with operations to increase overall system performance, it spans across the stack e.g. deep understanding of application code e.g DL Framework, Numerical Solvers, Microservices, APIs and Heterogeneous accelerated computing with CPUs and GPUs.

  • Design, Build, Deploy and Operate scalable I/O infrastructure for checkpointing, data loading, pre & post processing of data.

  • Optimize compute, storage and network architecture specific to physics & simulation driven applications.

What we need to see:
