We leverage NVIDIA’s premier data centers to stream over 2,000 games at up to 5K resolution and 120 FPS, ensuring a local-feel experience with ultra-low latency. Joining the GFN team means playing a vital role in advancing interactive entertainment at scale.

We are looking for a Senior Manager to lead the design, scaling, and operations of high-performance networking for GPU-based cloud infrastructure.

  • Oversee the design of intra-cluster and inter-cluster connectivity, utilizing RoCE, Ethernet-based AI fabrics, and high-bandwidth data center interconnects.

  • Drive technical tuning to reduce latency, jitter, and increase throughput while implementing congestion control and packet-loss mitigation strategies.

  • Define the roadmap for networking strategies that support gaming, AI/ML training, and real-time inference at scale.

  • Engage with ISPs to optimize low-latency edge networks and ensure a seamless connection from our data centers to end clients.
