An era in which our GPU acts as the brains of computers, robots, and self-driving cars that can understand the world. Doing what’s never been done before takes vision, innovation, and the world’s best talent. As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world. Colossus Cloud is at the heart of GPU Bring-up infrastructure strategy and used for all of NVIDIA's software development and QA. The cloud service offers many resource types to support the various use cases, like baremetal for development, managed k8s service for CI/CD etc. As we grow and expand into new datacenters for both new product bring-up and scale, we are looking to hire Cloud Efficiency Architect. This position involves crafting, implementing, and maintaining strong models for total cost of ownership, return on investment, and usage. The efficiency insights to Infra, collaborators and finance, help enable data-driven decisions to optimize Colossus investments. The candidate must demonstrate strong business and technical competence with cloud concepts
What you'll be doing:
Colossus Utilization & Cost Model Development: Design, build, and maintain comprehensive cost models for private cloud services, including compute, storage, network, and platform services.
