More recently, GPU deep learning ignited modern deep learning — the next era of computing — with the GPU acting as the brain of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can perceive and understand the world. Today, we are increasingly known as “the AI computing company.” We're looking to grow our company and establish teams with the most thoughtful people in the world.
NVIDIA DGX, HGX, and MGX servers deliver the world's leading solutions for enterprise AI infrastructure at scale. We’re looking for a highly motivated, creative engineer with strong experience in Firmware Release Infrastructure to join the Datacenter Platform Software team. You will be designing and architecting infrastructure and tools to manage the end-to-end firmware lifecycle of compute servers built using NVIDIA GPUs, CPUs, and DPUs. This includes how firmware is ingested into the infrastructure and bundled for high-quality firmware flashing needs for large-scale data centers. Are you ready to change the next generation of computing? Join us at the forefront of technological advancement.
What you’ll be doing:
As an Architect for Firmware Lifecycle Management (FLM), you will be responsible for developing infrastructure that ingests firmware binary images and assembles secure, validated firmware bundles to be deployed across NVIDIA’s GPU servers, blade systems, and full-rack solutions.
Design scalable system architectures capable of supporting high-concurrency firmware packaging pipelines across multiple platforms and SKUs.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams — including firmware, hardware, software, and QA — to gather requirements and deliver robust solutions that scale across tens of products and hundreds of variants.
Architect and implement front-end, back-end, APIs, UI, and CLIs to support FLM workflows, while ensuring maintainability and performance.
Drive the integration of third-party software components and services (e.g., Jenkins, Artifactory, Vault) into the FLM ecosystem.
Own the design and evolution of scalable APIs, focused on long-term maintainability and extensibility.
Implement automation frameworks and pipelines using Jenkins, Docker, and Kubernetes; familiarity with Artifactory and Robot Framework is a plus.
Continuously seek opportunities for process automation, observability, and resilient system design, including telemetry and high availability improvements.
What we need to see: 8+ years of experience in software architecture, systems programming, automation infrastructure and firmware package creation — preferably within data center or enterprise environments.
Bachelors degree or equivalent experience.
Strong background in designing scalable and modular architectures, with the ability to identify and mitigate performance bottlenecks.
Advanced Python programming skills with deep understanding of object-oriented design principles and scalable code practices.
Expertise in Linux system programming, with proficiency in shell scripting, system debugging, and automation toolchains.
Experience with firmware workflows and lifecycle management, including familiarity with Redfish APIs, update mechanisms, and industry standards (e.g., DMTF).
Hands-on experience integrating third-party tools and building robust automation frameworks using Jenkins, Docker, and Kubernetes.
Excellent communication skills; ability to document and present technical designs to stakeholders across hardware, firmware, software, and QA.
Familiarity with operating system fundamentals such as process scheduling, memory management, and system security models.
Ways to stand out from the crowd: Good understanding of Out-of-Band/In-Band management, and one or more of the protocols MCTP, PLDM, SPDM, Redfish, and common firmware stacks such as OpenBMC and BIOS/UEFI.
Prior experience working in firmware provisioning. Knowledge of low-level hardware interfaces such as PCIe, I2C, SPI, USB.
Familiarity with RESTful architectures, JSON-over-HTTPS, OAuth-based authentication, and secure API development. Ability to lead cross-team architectural discussions and provide mentorship to junior developers.
