NVIDIA data center systems, such as DGX, MGX and HGX, have become core to NVIDIA's rapidly growing enterprise and cloud provider businesses. These platforms bring together the full power of NVIDIA GPUs, NVIDIA NVLink, NVIDIA InfiniBand networking, NVIDIA Grace CPUs, and a fully optimized NVIDIA AI and HPC software stack.

We’re looking for a leader build full system simulators, enabling NVIDIA software developers and partners to develop software and applications in advance of the next generation processors being back in our labs or in production. The simulators will be used to test the full software stack, including firmware, kernel drivers, operating systems, user mode drivers, and applications. You leverage simulation work done across NVIDIA at the IP level, including simulator components for GPU, CPU and NICs to build a full solution of a DC server (includes CPU, GPU, network, peripherals, BMC/OOB, etc).

What you'll be doing:

Align the simulator roadmap with our next generation GPU accelerated platforms.

Build and deliver full server simulation platform to internal developers and NVIDIA partners.

Provide administrative and technical direction of a core group software development engineers working on simulators.

Make sure the team executes perfectly in delivering on customer and internal commitments.

Drive and facilitate the planning, scheduling and execution of projects and activities of your team.

Engage with partners at industry leading cloud service providers to ensure they can make use of the server simulation platforms.
