Senior Performance Architect, Nemotron joins the team to shape the next generation of Nemotron models through performance modeling, analysis, and forward projections. The role involves developing high-fidelity analytical models to prototype emerging algorithmic techniques and hardware optimizations for the Nemotron family. You will model end-to-end performance impacts of generative AI workflows like Speculative Decoding, Agentic Pipelines, Inference-time compute scaling, and RL to determine datacenter needs while prioritizing features to guide software and hardware roadmaps. The position requires expertise in computer architecture, roofline modeling, queuing theory, and statistical performance analysis. You will utilize Python, C++, PyTorch, TRT-LLM, VLLM, SGLang, and CUDA for simulator design and data analysis. This role addresses the technical challenge of model-system-hardware co-design to ensure optimal trade-offs between accuracy, throughput, and interactivity while ensuring intelligence scales efficiently in production environments.
