  • Feedback customer/field perspectives on cluster design and workflows back to engineering teams designing internal clusters.

  • Perform hands-on work to assist NVIDIA Cloud Partners debugging issues relating to cluster design, configuration, and performance employing internal engineering expertise and known bugs.

  • Support NPI customer deployments with new GPU/Networking architectures.

What we need to see:

  • BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or related field (or equivalent experience).

  • 8+ years of experience in cluster design, validation, and issue resolution, specifically on GPU and HPC clusters.

  • Proven expertise in designing large-scale distributed systems, AI clusters, or HPC infrastructure.

  • Ability to translate sophisticated engineering concepts into customer-ready documentation, diagrams, and reference material.

  • Expertise in driving customer/partner issues to a close with product and engineering teams.

  • Ability to handle multi-functional communications across customer, product team, support team, engineering team, etc.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Experience leading large-scale AI Factory or HPC cluster bring-ups or builds.

  • Hands-on experience with NVIDIA products including, but not limited to, GPUs, NVLink, NVIDIA Networking, etc.; specifically debugging issues that occur during deployment on NVLink, etc.

  • Knowledge of NCCL, MPI, IMEX, NMX, and collectives in distributed training as it pertains to cluster designs.

  • External customer facing skill-set and background.

  • Effective time management and capability to balance multiple tasks and customers while thinking creatively to debug and solve problems.

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 184,000 USD - 287,500 USD for Level 4, and 224,000 USD - 356,500 USD for Level 5.
