Description

As a Senior Systems Software Engineer, Windows and Linux Enablement - DGX Station at NVIDIA, you will be responsible for owning full-stack OS enablement from firmware and drivers through OS integration to ensuring AI applications run seamlessly on day one. This is a hands-on, technically deep role where you will be the go-to engineer for making DGX Station a first-class Windows platform while also driving its Linux bring-up and validation.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Windows Platform Ownership: Own end-to-end Windows enablement for DGX Station, driving the platform from initial bring-up on Windows through WHQL certification to customer-ready shipping quality.
  • Linux Bring-up & Enablement: Drive Linux bring-up and continuous enablement for DGX Station on DGX OS / Ubuntu, including kernel module integration, device tree and ACPI configuration, systemd services, initramfs, and dkms packaging.
  • Firmware & Driver Enablement: Enable and validate BIOS/UEFI, BMC, and system-level firmware for Windows and Linux on the Grace (Arm) + Blackwell GB300 architecture.
  • GPU Driver Integration: Coordinate GPU driver, display driver, and compute driver bring-up and validation on Windows (WDDM, MCDM) and Linux (open-gpu-kernel-modules, DRM/KMS).
  • CUDA & AI Stack Readiness: Ensure the CUDA toolkit, cuDNN, TensorRT, NCCL, and NVIDIA's AI SDK stack are fully functional on DGX Station on both Windows and Linux.
  • Application Validation: Validate that NVIDIA AI applications run correctly on DGX Station across Windows and Linux.
  • System Validation & Quality: Drive the overall test strategy for DGX Station on Windows and Linux, including functional testing, stress testing, power/thermal validation, and long-duration reliability.
  • Partner Engagement: Be the primary technical interface with Microsoft and ODM/OEM partners shipping DGX Station.
  • Performance Optimization: Profile and optimize system performance, identifying bottlenecks across the stack on Windows and Linux and driving fixes with the appropriate teams.
  • Documentation & Enablement: Create and maintain platform documentation for DGX Station on Windows and Linux, enabling field and support teams for customer deployments.
