Cloud Platform Software Engineer

NVIDIA•Santa Clara, CA

About The Position

We are the Platform API team within NVIDIA's DGX Cloud organization. We are a collaborative group of cloud platform engineers, architects, and SREs who are passionate about building and nurturing the declarative, Kubernetes-native control plane that powers GPU-accelerated infrastructure across multiple cloud providers. Together, we're empowering the world's leading AI teams to train and deploy at datacenter scale. We design and extend Kube-like APIs, and we craft Go-based reconciliation controllers that thoughtfully turn high-level intent into production-ready AI infrastructure. We take pride in owning our code end-to-end, and we care deeply about the full lifecycle of multi-cloud GPU clusters, from customer onboarding and provisioning through upgrades and decommissioning. We partner closely with our runtime, cloud architecture, observability, and storage teams to solve sophisticated distributed systems challenges together. As a team, we're strengthening NVIDIA's approach to Cloud Native development.
