Role brief

techroles summary, based on the employer's posting.

What you'll do

  • Examine workloads and infrastructure signals across large GPU clusters to uncover application and platform improvements
  • Connect shifts in complex data to known events, then share findings with engineers and leadership
  • Agree on analysis questions with teammates and record methods so others can build on your work
  • Create usable visualizations and add lightweight classification or prediction features to existing software workflows

What you bring

  • At least five years working with complex datasets, resolving data issues and explaining trends clearly
  • A bachelor’s or master’s in engineering, math, physics or computer science, or equivalent experience
  • Strong Python and JavaScript skills, plus experience with telemetry or observability tools such as Grafana or Elasticsearch
  • You can own an analysis from start to finish and understand core machine learning concepts

Who this fits

This senior role suits an analytical engineer who can take work from scoping through communication and collaborate with OS, container, GPU and systems engineers. You’ll work with large-scale datacenter workloads and may use machine learning or deep learning for categorization and forecasting.

From the employer

NVIDIA has been transforming computer graphics, PC gaming, and accelerated computing for more than 25 years. It’s a unique legacy of innovation that’s fueled by great technology—and amazing people. Today, we’re tapping into the unlimited potential of AI to define the next era of computing. An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.

Join a team that analyzes large-scale datacenter workloads on GPU-accelerated clusters. You will turn telemetry and workload data into clear findings and visuals. You will partner with OS, container, GPU, and systems engineers. When useful, you will apply machine learning and deep learning techniques for categorization and forecasting. These will be coordinated into tools the team actually uses.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Analyze large-scale workloads and infrastructure signals to find application and platform improvement opportunities.

  • Work with high-dimensional data: spot trends, tie changes to known events, summarize conclusions, and communicate results to engineers and leadership.

  • Partner with the team to clarify questions, scope analyses, and document methods so others can extend your work.

  • Build and maintain practical visualizations and lightweight implementations (e.g. ML/DL for classification/prediction) inside existing software workflows.

What we need to see:

  • 5+ years analyzing complex datasets, debugging data issues, and communicating trends clearly.

  • BS or MS in Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, or equivalent experience.

  • Strong Python and JavaScript;

  • Comfortable being responsible for an analysis end-to-end.

  • Hands-on use of telemetry / observability stacks (e.g. Grafana, Elasticsearch, Splunk).

  • Shown grasp of core ML concepts; quick learner; strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

  • Collaboration and communication.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • TensorFlow or PyTorch

  • Linux and HPC / large-scale or performance-sensitive environments

  • Experience visualizing high-dimensional problems

  • Diligent, action-biased analysis style

NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers. We have some of the most forward-thinking and hardworking people in the world working for us. If you're creative and autonomous, we want to hear from you!

NVIDIA also offers a comprehensive benefits package. We provide health care coverage, dental and vision, 401(K), including company matching and after tax contributions, Employee Stock Purchase Program (ESPP), Employee Assistance Program (EAP), company paid holidays, paid sick leave, vacation leave, professional time off, life and disability protection.

Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. The base salary range is 152,000 USD - 241,500 USD.

You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.

Applications for this job will be accepted at least until October 25, 2026.
