NVIDIA
Join NVIDIA as a
Field Application Engineer
and help deliver groundbreaking enterprise networking and computing solutions to the world.
What You’ll Be Doing
Act as a technical specialist on NVIDIA switch ASICs and networking products, directly supporting Cisco engineers and account managers.
Establish deep technical engagement with Cisco’s architects, system engineers, and developers.
Provide on-site and remote support to debug hardware/software integration, including register‑level analysis, counters, and traces.
Assist Cisco with ASIC SDK integration into their switch OS stack (NX‑OS, IOS‑XR, SONiC) and provide example code, documentation, and onboarding support.
Investigate networking protocols and datacenter characteristics (L2/L3, OSPF, BGP, VXLAN/EVPN, RoCE, congestion control, load balancing).
Support customer war‑room scenarios by analyzing logs/traces, reproducing issues, and driving rapid resolution with internal teams.
Deliver training, workshops, and technical collateral for Cisco engineering teams.
Provide guidance to NVIDIA product teams based on Cisco’s feature requirements and deployment models.
What We Need To See
BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field (or equivalent experience).
5+ years of experience in networking, ASIC system development, or customer‑facing technical roles.
Strong knowledge of Ethernet switch ASIC architecture (pipelines, buffers, forwarding engines, QoS, telemetry).
Familiarity with switch SDKs and APIs (e.g., NVIDIA SDK, Broadcom SDK, Cisco Silicon One SDK).
Proficiency in datacenter networking protocols (VLAN, STP, ARP, OSPF, BGP, VXLAN, EVPN) and functionalities like RDMA, RoCE, ECN, and PFC.
Strong Linux networking background (Netlink, iproute2, tc, DPDK) and experience with kernel modules, drivers, PCIe, and DMA.
Hands‑on experience with traffic generators (Ixia, Spirent, TRex) and packet capture/debugging tools.
Strong customer interface skills: capable of detailing, training, and guiding Cisco engineers while advancing issues internally as necessary.
Strong communication and problem‑solving skills, especially under pressure.
Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd
Exposure to Cisco development environments, build systems, or test frameworks (PyATS/Genie).
Security feature knowledge (MACsec, IPsec offload, ACL scaling).
Performance benchmarking experience (efficiency, latency, jitter).
Knowledge of interconnect technologies: PCIe, SerDes, PHY basics.
Previous experience collaborating with major OEMs and comprehending their engineering procedures, release timelines, and critical issue handling.
Base salary will be determined based on location, experience, and comparable positions. The base salary range is $132,000 - $207,000 for Level 3, and $160,000 - $253,000 for Level 4.
You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
Applications will be accepted until October 24, 2025.
