Sobre este puesto de Senior Data and Platform Engineer en NVIDIA
NVIDIA’s DGX Cloud organization is seeking a Senior Data Engineer to become part of its data team! We develop the reliable data foundation that supports fleet health, capacity, utilization, cost, reliability, and operational decision-making throughout DGX Cloud. Our platform supports engineering, operations, finance, and product teams managing and expanding large GPU fleets across cloud service providers and NVIDIA Cloud Partners. We are looking for a practical engineer and technical lead to take charge of a key part of the Navigator data platform. We develop the systems that transform distributed infrastructure telemetry and operational data into dependable, managed data products that support fleet health, capacity, utilization, cost, and operational decisions.
We are seeking a hands-on, platform-minded engineer to build and evolve the systems that turn distributed infrastructure telemetry and operational data into reliable, governed data products. You will work across ingestion, transformation, data quality, platform architecture, security, observability, and self-service consumption to help make Navigator and the DGXC data platform a dependable source of truth. We do expect strong engineering fundamentals, experience operating production systems, and the ability to learn new platforms and domains quickly.
What you'll be doing:
Own systems end to end. For example, work from ambiguous customer and operational needs through architecture, implementation, deployment, observability, incident response, and ongoing support.
Construct data pipelines and products. Such as designing and maintain batch and streaming ingestion, transformation, reconciliation, and serving paths for fleet, capacity, utilization, cost, scheduling, and operational telemetry.
Build shared libraries, workflow and DAG or equivalent experience abstractions to evolve the data platform. Develop deployment tooling, data contracts, and paved-road patterns that improve team speed and safety.
Engineer reliable distributed workloads. As well as diagnose correctness and performance issues across applications, SQL engines, Spark jobs, storage systems, networks, and cloud services. Build for retries, idempotency, backfills, schema evolution, and partial failure.
Treat security as part of the build. For example, applying least privilege, service identities, secrets management, access controls, environment isolation, auditability, and safe operational practices throughout the system lifecycle.
Improve quality and operations: Establish automated tests, data-quality checks, lineage, freshness and completeness monitoring, actionable alerting, SLOs, and clear ownership.
Deliver consumption experiences. Such as making trusted data usable through well-modeled tables, APIs, automation, dashboards, and focused internal applications—not only through one-off queries.
Raise the engineering bar. Lead build reviews, communicate tradeoffs, mentor other engineers, and improve the team's architecture, testing, debugging, and operational practices.
What we need to see:
BS or MS in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
5+ years of experience building and operating production software, data platforms, backend infrastructure, databases, or distributed systems.
Strong software-engineering fundamentals and production proficiency in Python or another backend or systems language, with the ability and willingness to work primarily in Python and SQL.
Deep hands-on experience in at least one of the following areas: Distributed data processing using Spark or a comparable compute framework, Relational, distributed, or analytical database architecture and operation at scale, Production ETL, change-data-capture, streaming, or event-processing systems, Backend or cloud-platform systems that process, transform, or serve substantial data volumes, Strong SQL and data-modeling skills, including a practical understanding of query performance, schema evolution, incremental processing, consistency, and analytical consumption patterns.
Demonstrated ability to debug unfamiliar systems across multiple layers using logs, metrics, traces, query plans, profiles, and controlled experiments to find root causes.
Experience operating services or pipelines in a cloud or similarly complex production environment, including testing, CI/CD, monitoring, alerting, rollback, and incident response.
Working knowledge of secure platform development, including identity and access management, least privilege, secret handling, trust boundaries, and safe multi-environment deployments.
Ability to make sound architectural tradeoffs, own work through ambiguity, and communicate effectively with users, partner teams, and engineers from different fields.
A track record of learning unfamiliar technologies and domains and turning that learning into maintainable systems and reusable team practices.
Experience with AI agents and LLM-supported workflow automation, particularly as applied to engineering and operational activities.
Ways to stand out from the crowd:
Experience with Databricks, Apache Spark, PySpark, Spark SQL, Delta Lake, Unity Catalog, or another modern lakehouse or distributed-compute platform.
Experience with Kafka or another streaming platform, change-data capture, event development, partitioning, consumer groups, offset management, or other high-volume event systems.
Experience with scaling, migrating, or performance-tuning relational, distributed, time-series, object-storage, or search-focused data systems, including Elasticsearch or OpenSearch.
Background working with AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, Slurm, compute clusters, GPU-accelerated infrastructure, or fleet-scale telemetry.
Experience developing agentic systems, LLM-enabled workflow automation, harness engineering, or dependable evaluation and operational tooling for AI agents.
You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
