NVIDIA’s Silicon Co-Design Group sits at the crossroads of architecture, silicon, systems, and manufacturing, where first-principles thinking and engineering judgment at the highest level translate directly into product outcomes at scale. We are looking for a Principal Performance and Manufacturing Architect who has built the models, defined the specs, and seen them validated through silicon. You have owned the connection between design intent and manufacturing reality, not as a reviewer or a contributor, but as the person who set the methodology and proved it worked. You turn ambiguous physical phenomena into quantified, defensible margin terms. You do not wait for data to confirm your hypothesis; you design the experiment that gets it. You improve how the organization ships products after every program. The exceptional hire also uses AI deliberately — with proven workflow impact and the judgment to know where it compresses real work and where it introduces risk. What you'll be doing: Own the physics, from mechanism to margin. Build first-principles models connecting AVF, defect mechanisms, and DVFS transients to field FIT, system-level yield, and DPPM vs. coverage — calibrated per node and population shift — so every margin term in the V/F curve and P-state table is named, sourced, and defensible. Set the screen that resolves escapes. Specify ATE and SLT voltage, frequency, and timing conditions that capture worst-case transient VF windows — making it unambiguous whether a marginal defect or timing violation is detected or escapes at every manufacturing stage. Make the POR the authoritative source. Author the methodology document for each program and drive alignment across build, product definition, reliability, and test engineering — so every team is making decisions from the same model. Prove the model before produc

About the Team Training Runtime designs the core distributed machine-learning training runtime that powers everything from early research experiments to frontier-scale model runs. With a dual mandate to accelerate researchers and enable frontier scale, we’re building a unified, modular runtime that meets researchers where they are and moves with them up the scaling curve. Our work focuses on three pillars: high-performance, asynchronous, zero-copy tensor and optimizer-state-aware data movement; performant, high-uptime, fault-tolerant training frameworks (training loop, state management, resilient checkpointing, deterministic orchestration, and observability); and distributed process management for long-lived, job-specific and user-provided processes. We integrate proven large-scale capabilities into a composable, developer-facing runtime so teams can iterate quickly and run reliably at any scale, partnering closely with model-stack, research, and platform teams. Success for us is measured by raising both training throughput (how fast models train) and researcher throughput (how fast ideas become experiments and products). About the Role As a Training Performance Engineer, you’ll drive efficiency improvements across our distributed training stack. You’ll analyze large-scale training runs, identify utilization gaps, and design optimizations that push the boundaries of throughput and uptime. This role blends deep systems understanding with practical performance engineering — analyzing GPU kernel performance, collective communication throughput, investigating I/O bottlenecks, and sharding our models so we can train them at massive scale. You’ll help ensure that our clusters are running at peak performance, enabling OpenAI to train larger, more capable models with the same compute budget. This role is based in San Francisco, CA. We use a hybrid work model of three days in the office per week and offer relocation assistance to new employees. In this role, you will: Profil

By uniting applied AI research, flexible infrastructure, and seamless developer tooling, we enable companies operating at the frontier of AI to bring cutting-edge models into production. We're growing quickly and recently raised our $1.5B Series F , led by Altimeter Capital, Conviction Partners, and Spark Capital. Join us and help build the platform engineers turn to to ship AI products. THE ROLE The Model Performance organization at Baseten is looking to hire our first Technical Program Manager. This is a zero-to-one role in a team that is responsible for building the core algorithms and methods that power Baseten’s high performance inference stack. You won't inherit an existing program framework, you'll build one from the ground up: the planning structure, execution processes, metrics and the cross-functional alignment that a fast-growing organization needs. Your contributions will directly impact how fast our performance R&D gets productized. If you can drive turning a set of ambitious but loosely defined initiatives into a predictable, well-governed program, this role is for you. EXAMPLE INITIATIVES Take a look at these blog posts written by members of our Model Performance team: How to build a day-0 API for Kimi K3 How we built the new fastest API for GLM-5.2 Inference engineering for DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 RESPONSIBILITIES Own execution across Model Performance's active project portfolio, freeing the team's technical leads to focus on technical direction rather than tracking.

NVIDIA builds the silicon behind AI, accelerated computing, and graphics. Every watt of performance and every degree of thermal headroom traces back to decisions made in power, performance, and thermal architecture. We are the Silicon Co-Design Group (SCG). We identify, own, and drive system-level co-design ideas. We start with initial concepts and advance to product differentiation across NVIDIA's roadmap. We are hiring a Principal System Power Management and Performance Architect who operates at the ambiguous boundary where workload behavior, silicon capabilities, firmware policies, and platform constraints collide, and who turns that ambiguity into architecture that survives across multiple silicon generations. SCG scope spans architecture, design, software, operations, platforms, and productization. This role shapes system, platform, and data center features and behavior, and partners with teams across NVIDIA. What You'll Be Doing: The work here is rarely well-defined when it arrives. You will be given problems that appear to be performance gaps or power anomalies and encouraged to build a framework for solving them, not just tackle a single instance. Define the multi-generation roadmap for system-level power and performance features, grounded in prototyping, use-case analysis, and cost/benefit trade-offs across segments. You will decide what problems are worth solving and why. Own the architecture and integration strategy for HSIO power management, DVFS, P-states, and low-power features. Your decisions improve product performance, power, and reliability across product lines — not just the current program. Lead system-level boot and IST architecture defining how power and clock domains initialize, sequence, and recover across complex multi-IP systems where the interaction space is large and the failure modes matter.
