About The Position
NVIDIA is seeking a strong technology leader for our Engineering Operations and Site Reliability Engineering for our next-generation datacenter server systems. This role sits at the intersection of execution, reliability, automation, and large-scale system operations, where we keep NVIDIA’s rack-scale systems healthy, observable, and highly available for internal engineering users. These systems bring together the full power of NVIDIA CPUs, GPUs, NVLink, InfiniBand/Spectrum-X networking, cluster management technologies, and our optimized AI/HPC software stack. We enable fast product development by ensuring large internal racks, clusters, and lab infrastructure are reliable, well-instrumented, and operated with scalable engineering practices. This is a technical leadership role focused on execution excellence for large-scale internal datacenter systems. The ideal candidate has strong engineering judgment, experience operating complex distributed infrastructure, and the ability to build teams that combine focused operations with automation-first software engineering.
Requirements
- BS or MS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
- 12+ overall years of experience in infrastructure, systems engineering, reliability, datacenter operations, distributed systems, or related areas, including 7+ years of people management experience.
- Strong understanding of server systems, Linux, cluster operations, high-speed networking, and large-scale infrastructure.
- Experience operating complex systems with high availability expectations, including monitoring, incident management, automation, and fleet-health practices.
