For more details, see http://www.geforce.com/geforce-now . Our mission empowers every Ge Force NOW engineer to deliver confidently by removing obstacles, catching issues early, and turning deployments into a strength rather than a liability. We handle pipelines using Git Lab’s CI platform and Jenkins, along with Flux CD and Argo CD rollouts, Stack Storm event-driven automation, Hashi Corp Vault for credential storage, and automation across multi-cloud environments. This is the Kubernetes-native deployment platform paired with its automation system and the backend services and APIs that support it. We deliver zero-downtime global rollouts with automatic drift detection. Our reliable staging environments replicate production accurately. We provide cloud automation for bare-metal and multi-cloud environments. If a GFN service ships, runs, or self-heals, you build the infrastructure behind it. What You'll Be Doing: Build and develop backend microservices and REST/g RPC/MCP APIs that power the deployment platform, zone reservation/lease system, and developer self-service tooling Extend the platform with dynamic delivery, automatic rollback, drift detection, and automated zone bootstrapping Build and stabilize prod-like staging environments/zones so teams catch regressions early Develop and sustain Git Ops pipelines (Flux CD, Argo CD) across on-premises and Nvidia GFN Cloud/AWS/Azure/GCP Develop Kubernetes CRDs and operators in Go for scheduling, auto-scaling, and compliance across data centers Build backend integrations and control-plane services connecting CI/CD, observability, and automation systems into a unified platform experience Automate dedicated hardware and multiple cloud platform configurations using Terraform, Ansible, and Vault Implement monitoring solutions including Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, and ELK, paired with SLO/alerting for early detection Integrate automation tools — runbooks, Stack Storm bots, anomaly-triggered remediation, and Slack self-service release bots What We Need to See: BS or MS in Computer Science or equivalent experience with 12+ years of experience in Cloud Infrastructure and Dev Ops, with deep expertise in Kubernetes, Git Ops (or equivalent), and production-grade cloud-native CI/CD pipelines Expert Kubernetes: CRDs, operators, multi-cluster management, and security hardening (CIS, PCI/SOC 2) Proficiency in Flux CD or Argo CD, Git Lab CI, and Jenkins; Go or Python for control plane development Experience handling Vault, Terraform, Ansible, and Helm in both on-premises and cloud environments Experience in developing and scaling RESTful, g RPC, MCP APIs and backend services. Experience running hybrid multi-cloud and bare-metal at production scale, and owning a platform roadmap end-to-end. Ways to Stand Out from the Crowd: Backstage or similar internal developer portals for self-service tooling Comprehensive expertise covering backend services as well as platform and infrastructure engineering Daily use of AI-assisted tools (Claude Code, Git Hub Copilot, Cursor) — we use these daily Hybrid infrastructure spanning on-premises GPU clusters and public cloud With competitive salaries and a generous benefits package, NVIDIA is widely considered one of the technology world’s most desirable employers. We have some of the most forward-thinking and hardworking people in the world working for us. NVIDIA pioneered accelerated computing. Today, our AI infrastructure powers global intelligence, transforming every industry. Learn more about NVIDIA.
