Design, build, launch, and operate resilient AI infrastructure services, tools, and open-source projects. Develop Kubernetes- and Slurm-based systems for large-scale GPU training, including APIs, automated job recovery, checkpointing, telemetry, and failure diagnosis. Lead team planning, mentor engineers, review designs, and establish production support practices such as monitoring, alerting, CI/CD, testing, and on-call operations. Collaborate with customers and the open-source community to improve ML infrastructure.

NVIDIA’s DGX Cloud team builds the infrastructure behind large-scale AI training for NVIDIA’s own training workloads and for our customers. We build services, tools and open-source software that make ML workloads more efficient and resilient.


We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer for the NVIDIA Recovery and Resilience team. You’ll own our AI infrastructure services, tools and open-source projects to support resilient and efficient training  from design through production. You’ll also mentor engineers and decide how the team runs what it builds.


What You Will Be Doing:

  • Drive the design, build, launch and operation of our services, tools and open-source projects.
  • Plan and assign the team’s work, mentor junior engineers and review designs.
  • Build resilient AI infrastructure on Kubernetes and Slurm for NVIDIA’s own training workloads and customer workloads. This includes supercomputers at major cloud providers and on-premises clusters.
  • Build APIs that connect to NVIDIA’s resiliency systems: telemetry, break/fix automation, and checkpoint and execution systems.
  • Build a job submission layer that hides infrastructure failures from users and restarts long-running training jobs automatically.
  • Build agentic tools that help customers improve training efficiency by finding bottlenecks, diagnosing failures and recommending fixes.
  • Drive our open-source work. Release components so customers and the community can use them, and work with them to improve those components.
  • Set up how the team runs its services: support, monitoring, alerts, CI/CD, integration test gates and on-call plans.

What We Need To See:

  • BS, MS or PhD in Computer Science or a related field (or equivalent experience), plus 12+ years of experience.
  • Proven experience who has taken large systems from design through production.
  • Strong experience with Kubernetes and/or Slurm at scale.
  • Hands-on experience with PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX or Ray.
  • Strong understanding of NVIDIA GPUs and networking, including how they fail.
  • Experience running production services, including CI/CD, monitoring, alerting and on-call.

Ways to Stand Out from the Crowd:

  • Hands-on experience with fault tolerance or checkpointing for large-scale distributed training on GPU supercomputers.
  • Demonstrated experience building LLM-based agents or AI tools for performance analysis or troubleshooting.
  • Background in building external services or maintaining open-source projects in ML infrastructure.

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and other objective job-related factors. The expected base salary ranges for this position are:
224,000 USD – 356,500 USD for Level 5; and 272,000 USD – 431,250 USD for Level 6.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.

Applications for this job will be accepted at least until November 10, 2026.
