Senior Software Engineer, Cloud-Native Stack – CSP Engagements

About this role

We are developing advanced multi-rack, multi-tenant AI/ML datacenters with NVIDIA GB200, and upcoming GB300 GPUs. NVIDIA seeks a Senior Software Engineer for our CSP (Cloud Service Provider) Engagements team to focus on the cloud-native stack for datacenter products like GB200. In this role, You will define customer workflows, prototype stack enhancements, and debug the toughest Kubernetes + Slurm issues in multi-rack, multi-tenant AI datacenters. You'll tackle complex scheduling challenges across racks, tenants, and clouds as part of the CSP engagements team.

What you’ll be doing:

• Perform deep-dive debugging of multi-rack, multi-tenant clusters: scheduler behavior, container runtime issues, device-plugin crashes, RDMA/IB fabric anomalies, etc.
• Gather customer requirements and prototype feature extensions for Kubernetes operators, Slurm plugins, and custom micro-services that expose new GPU capabilities.
• Drive joint architecture reviews and “whiteboard” sessions with CSP and internal platform teams; convert findings into RFCs and upstream pull requests.
• Create reproducible testbeds (Helm/Ansible/Terraform) that mirror customer environments; automate validation and benchmark suites.
• Deliver technical collateral-design docs, how-to guides, demo scripts-and present at customer on-sites, KubeCon, and SlurmUG.
• Collaborate with AE, FAE, and Solution Architect teams to deliver integrated customer solutions and technical documentation.

What we need to see:

• Strong source-level expertise in Kubernetes internals (scheduler, CRI/CNI/CSI, operators) and Slurm (federation, power-save, plugins).
• Hands-on experience integrating next-gen GPUs (Blackwell/GB200/GB300) or comparable accelerators into containerized clusters.
• Proven track record debugging large-scale, cloud-native stacks across networking (RDMA/RoCE), storage, and control planes.
• Customer-facing engineering or solutions-architect background: requirements gathering, PoC ownership, roadmap i...
