An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.

NVIDIA is driving AI and high-performance computing forward. DGX Cloud aims to deliver a fully managed AI platform on major cloud providers, optimizing AI workloads using high-performance NVIDIA infrastructure.

Work with NVIDIA's DGX Cloud team as a Senior Site Reliability Engineer to maintain high-performance DGX Cloud clusters for AI researchers and enterprise clients worldwide.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Build, implement and support operational and reliability aspects of large-scale Kubernetes clusters with focus on performance at scale, real time monitoring, logging and alerting
  • Define SLOs/SLIs, monitor error budgets, and streamline reporting
  • Support services before they launch through system creation consulting, developing software tools, platforms and frameworks, capacity management, and launch reviews
  • Maintain services once they are live by measuring and monitoring availability, latency and overall system health
  • Operate and optimize GPU workloads across AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI, and private clouds
  • Scale systems sustainably through mechanisms like automation and evolve systems by pushing for changes that improve reliability and velocity
  • Lead triage and root-cause analysis of high-severity incidents
  • Practice balanced incident response and blameless postmortems
  • Participate in on-call rotation to support production services

What we need to see:

  • BS in Computer Science or related technical field, or equivalent experience
  • 10+ years of experience operating production services
  • Expert-level knowledge of Kubernetes administration, containerization, and microservices architecture
  • Experience with infrastructure automation tools (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, Chef, Puppet)
  • Proficiency in at least one high-level programming language (e.g., Python, Go)
  • In-depth knowledge of Linux operating systems, networking fundamentals (TCP/IP), and cloud security standards
  • Proficient knowledge of SRE principles, encompassing SLOs, SLIs, error budgets, and incident handling
  • Experience building and operating comprehensive observability stacks (monitoring, logging, tracing) using tools like OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack, Lightstep, Splunk, etc.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Operating GPU-accelerated clusters with KubeVirt in production
  • Applying generative-AI techniques to reduce operational toil
  • Experience with workflow orchestration platforms such as Temporal, Cadence, Airflow, Argo Workflows, or Step Functions
