Research Intern - Networking

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
