NVIDIA is seeking a Senior Staff Platform Engineer to architect, build, and scale foundational infrastructure for demanding compute and AI/ML workloads.

The role focuses on architecting, building, and scaling highly available platform services for AI/ML, distributed compute, and data-intensive workloads. The work spans cloud, compute, GPU infrastructure, networking, storage, DNS, load balancing, proxies, traffic management, and content delivery.

Responsibilities:

• Architect, build, and scale foundational infrastructure for AI/ML and compute workloads.
• Advance CDN and edge infrastructure, including HTTP caching, origin architecture, TLS, WAF, rate limiting, traffic routing, and global load balancing.
• Drive automation, infrastructure-as-code, and self-service capabilities using technologies such as Python, Go, Kubernetes, and Terraform.
• Collaborate with Cloud, Networking, Security, AI/ML, and infrastructure teams to solve complex problems.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 12+ years of relevant industry experience.
• Proven success architecting, building, and operating large-scale distributed platforms or infrastructure systems.
• Strong technical depth in several areas such as cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, networking, compute, storage, platform engineering, or content delivery.
• Deep knowledge of Linux/Unix, TCP/IP, DNS, TLS, HTTP/S, proxies, load balancing, availability, scalability, and fault-tolerant system design.
• Strong programming and automation skills with Python, Go, or similar languages.

Nice to Have:

• Experience building platforms for AI/ML training, inference, model serving, GPU-accelerated workloads, distributed compute, or high-performance computing.
• Deep expertise with CDN and edge platforms such as Akamai, AWS CloudFront, Fastly, or Cloudflare.
• Experience developing self-service platform capabilities that enable engineering teams to consume infrastructure reliably and at scale.

NVIDIA offers highly competitive salaries and a comprehensive benefits package.
