## Description

NVIDIA is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join the Agentic AI High-Performance Code Generation team. In this role, you will build autonomous systems that engineer code at the highest levels of performance.

**What you’ll be doing:**

- Architect Agentic Systems: Lead the design and implementation of sophisticated coding agents and agentic platforms capable of multi-step reasoning, self-correction, and autonomous code generation.

- Scale Distributed Systems: Build and maintain high-performance, large-scale production systems that handle the compute-intensive nature of agentic workflows and AI evaluation.

- Develop Evaluation Frameworks: Create and implement rigorous AI evaluation methodologies to measure the accuracy, safety, and efficiency of generated code and agentic logic.

- Optimize for Performance: Collaborate with hardware and software teams to ensure agent-generated code and the underlying platforms are optimized for the latest NVIDIA GPU architectures.

- Establish Engineering Standards: Drive best practices for code quality, testing, and deployment within the agentic AI ecosystem to ensure reliable, production-grade output.

**What we need to see:**

- A MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).

- 4+ years of experience building and maintaining large-scale production systems.

- Proven experience in building coding agents or developing comprehensive agent platforms.

- Direct experience developing skills and workflows using state-of-the-art coding agents and IDEs (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex).

- Proficient in Python and at least one systems programming language (C++ or Rust).

- Strong background in AI evaluation and the ability to design benchmarks for complex, non-deterministic agentic behaviors.

- Experience with distributed systems and orchestration to manage high-throughput AI workloads.

**Ways to stand out from the crowd:**

- Low-Level Mastery: Experience writing CUDA kernels and deep-dive profiling using Nsight Compute and Nsight Systems.

- Framework Optimization: Hands-on experience optimizing and deploying with TRT-LLM, SGLang, vLLM, or Transformer Engine.

- Agentic Innovation: Demonstrated leadership in building and scaling agentic AI applications in production environments.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
