About the role

NVIDIA is seeking an experienced Network Solutions Architect Engineer to drive the deployment of our next-generation AI networking platforms into customer data centers. The ideal candidate will partner with AI-native and consumer internet customers on large-scale GPU and networking deployments, guiding architecture decisions across network, compute, and storage, including fabric design.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with AI-native / consumer internet customers on large data center GPU and networking deployments.
  • Guide architecture decisions across network, compute, and storage, including fabric design.
  • Support on-site bring-up of server, network, and cluster infrastructure in customer data centers.
  • Demonstrate expertise on advanced GPU and network systems (Spectrum-X, BlueField DPU, InfiniBand/RoCE, etc.) for key accounts.
  • Run regular technical account reviews covering roadmap alignment, cluster issues, feature discussions, and new technology introductions.
  • Capture customer-specific requirements and translate them into concrete feedback for product, architecture, and engineering teams.
  • Analyze and debug configuration and performance issues in RoCE and InfiniBand environments.
  • Work across NICs, switches, Linux, and system software to deliver performant, reliable AI clusters.
  • Identify and shape new project opportunities for NVIDIA GPUs, networking, and software in AI and data center use cases.
  • Collaborate closely with Systems Engineering, Product Management, and Sales to align solutions with customer outcomes.
  • Build targeted Proof of Concepts (POCs) that showcase the value of NVIDIA’s networking stack (e.g., Spectrum-X fabrics, BlueField DPUs) in real customer environments.

  • Deep protocol knowledge of BGP, OSPF, and L2/L3 switching in large-scale data center or cloud networks (ECMP, Clos/leaf–spine).
  • Experience with high-density switching at cloud or hyperscale is strongly preferred.
  • Solid understanding of CPU/GPU server architecture, NICs, Linux, system software, and kernel drivers.
  • Strong time management and ability to context-switch across multiple customers and projects.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication, including clear design docs, customer presentations, and root-cause summaries.

Qualifications

  • Advanced certifications: CCIE, JNCIE, or equivalent expert-level certifications.
  • Experience in Python, Bash, or C/C++ for automating network workflows, validation, and debug.
  • Hands-on work with NVIDIA GPUs, NICs, DPUs, or ARM-based CPU platforms.
  • Customer-facing background: Pre-sales, post-sales, field engineering, or consulting experience with external enterprise or cloud customers.
  • Direct experience bringing up and operating large clusters or supercomputing environments.
  • Familiarity with virtualization, containers, and cloud networking concepts.
