## Description

NVIDIA Research is seeking extraordinary networking innovators to join our NVResearch team as a research intern. You will contribute to the development of future high-performance networking and computing systems.

**Responsibilities:**

- Develop algorithms and design hardware and software, extending the state of the art in computing, networking, and other technology areas surrounding NVIDIA's business.

- Invent new techniques, technologies, methodologies, processes, and devices, to enable new products or types of products. Deliverable results include prototypes, patents, and publications.

- Contribute to research that informs NVIDIA's technology direction 5-10 years out. Work focuses on long-horizon problems rather than products currently shipping or in development, except as to how they can be extended and improved.

- Projects can include but are not limited to: optimizing communication stacks for AI training and inference, designing network protocols and congestion control, co-designing AI systems across software and hardware, developing circuits and microarchitecture for network controllers and switches, and architecting networks built on optical switching and silicon photonics.

**Requirements:**

- Pursuing a PhD degree in CS, CE, EE, Physics, Math, or equivalent program.

- Relevant industry or university research experience (hardware, software, networking).

- Background in networking architectures, topologies, routing, and system design.

- Publications at top-tier conferences (ISCA, HPCA, NSDI, SIGCOMM, etc.), or research clearly on track toward them.

- Hands-on experience with simulation of networks and high-performance computing systems.

- Familiarity with inference and training systems for AI models and associated communication patterns.

- Excellent programming skills in a rapid prototyping environment such as Python; C++ and parallel programming.

- Experience building or using AI agents to accelerate research , automating experiments, analyzing results, or generating and reviewing code.

**Benefits:**

- Intern benefits

- Hourly rate: 38 USD - 94 USD
