Full time

NVIDIA is looking for a highly skilled Advanced Development Engineer to join the Software Architecture Team. In this hands-on role, you will shape the future of large‑scale data centers through advanced simulation, high‑scale telemetry, and next‑generation infrastructure solutions. You will work at the frontier of technology - exploring, prototyping, and proving new concepts - and turn them into scalable, production‑ready foundations. Your work will span large‑scale telemetry pipelines, data integrity at extreme scale, and advanced simulation frameworks used to model, validate, and optimize complex data‑center environments.

As part of the Architecture team, you will directly influence cross‑company platforms and long‑term technology direction, while actively contributing code, frameworks, and ideas. You will also have opportunities to participate in and contribute to open‑source projects and communities.

What You'll Be Doing

• Discover, evaluate, and prototype emerging technologies with a strong focus on simulation, scale, and system behavior modeling.
• Design, implement, and evolve high‑scale software systems integrated across the full Data Center life‑cycle.
• Build advanced simulation solutions to model data‑center behavior, telemetry flows, failure scenarios, and system performance at scale.
• Define and expand large‑scale telemetry and observability pipelines, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and traceability of data.
• Incorporate new and diverse data sources to continuously extend the capabilities of a centralized, petabyte‑scale Data Lake.
• Collaborate closely with engineering, architecture, and research teams across NVIDIA to translate business and technical requirements into robust, scalable solutions.
• Work side‑by‑side with architects and data scientists to design, validate, and evolve data and simulation architectures.
• Contribute to defining the architecture of next‑generation monitoring, analytics, and simulation platforms for hyperscale data centers.
• Extend existing platforms and actively contribute code, designs, and leadership to Open Source projects and communities.
  
  

• BSc. or MSc. in Computer Engineering or Computer Science.
• 5+ years of hands‑on software development experience in complex, large‑scale systems.
• Strong experience with large‑scale data processing and analytics platforms (e.g., Spark, Databricks, or equivalent).
• Proven ability to design and implement high‑performance, scalable solutions, from ETL pipelines to independent simulation frameworks.
• Excellent coding skills, technology‑agnostic, with a focus on correctness, performance, and maintainability.
  
  

• Experience designing or building simulation platforms or system‑level modeling solutions.
• Strong background in cloud‑native architectures and modern deployment methodologies.
• Knowledge of data center architectures, networking, and infrastructure technologies.
• Experience with GPU‑accelerated or high‑performance computing solutions.
• Active contributions to Open Source projects or technical communities.
