At a glance
As a Principal Systems Engineer at NVIDIA Dynamo, you will lead the design and evolution of a unified memory layer that spans GPU memory, pinned host memory, RDMA-accessible memory, SSD tiers, and remote storage for large-scale LLM inference. You will architect deep integrations with leading LLM serving engines to optimize KV-cache offload and sharing across heterogeneous clusters, co-design interfaces for high-throughput, low-latency inference, and collaborate closely with GPU architecture teams to leverage technologies like GPUDirect and NVLink. With a strong background in building large-scale distributed systems and experience in C/C++ and Python, you will mentor engineers, set technical direction, and represent the team in internal reviews and external forums. This role requires expertise in memory hierarchies, networked I/O, RDMA/NVMe-oF technologies, and optimizing systems across CPU, GPU, memory, and network for high performance and efficiency.
